(230926) -- BAYANNUR, Sept. 26, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on Sept. 14, 2023 shows an irrigation project that draws water from the Yellow River in Linhe District of Bayannur, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The Hetao Irrigation Area, located in Bayannur, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, has been diverting water from the Yellow River for irrigate since the Qin Dynasty (221 B.C.-206 B.C.). The current irrigation area stands at 11.54 million mu. The 2,200-year-old irrigation project, included in the World Heritage Irrigation Structures in 2019, uses gravity to transport the Yellow River water into fields. As one of China's most important grain and oil production bases, this area has yielded over 3 billion kg of grain on average annually in recent years. In recent years, Bayannur has explored the modernization, water-saving transformation and ecological governance of the Hetao Irrigation Area. It has used information technology to improve the fine management
