[Happy Flower Opens New Frontier] "Sheep Investment" Helps Farmers and Herdsmen Increase Income in Xigaze

  Chana Village, Longzhong Township, Gamba County is located in the southwestern border of China, in the southeast of Xigaze City, Tibet Autonomous Region. The average altitude here is over 4,700 meters, and the ecological environment is fragile and lack of oxygen.

Generations of traditional grazing have aggravated the degradation of grasslands and caused varying degrees of damage to the ecological environment.

The Sheep Raising Cooperative was established in Chana Village, which not only protects the ecological environment, but also solves the employment problem of the 7 poor households in the village who have established files and registered cards. The per capita income is increased by RMB 48,000.

There are a total of 40 households in Chana Village. The villagers have invested in sheep and 4,145 sheep have joined the community. It is estimated that the dividend at the end of the year will reach more than 965,900 yuan, which will drive the villagers’ per capita income by 4,781 yuan.
