flag Apple farming thrives in China’s Mu Us Desert, boosting production and reversing desertification.

flag In northern Shaanxi, apple farming has expanded hundreds of kilometers into the Mu Us Desert, transforming barren sand dunes into productive orchards. flag Driven by climate change, ecological restoration, and government support, the region now produces one in every four apples in China. flag Warmer temperatures, more rainfall, and a longer growing season have made farming viable in areas once deemed unsuitable. flag Over 573,000 hectares of new orchards now stabilize desert land, with afforestation efforts like the Three-North Shelterbelt Program playing a key role. flag Farmers in Yulin and Shenmu report record yields, marking a major economic and environmental shift.
