  Gamba County, Tibet, with an average elevation of 4,700 meters, has unique water quality and soil, which has created the famous Gamba sheep.

In recent years, the local government has innovated its development thinking and adopted the main industry development model of "village party branch + base + cooperative + farmer households", making the Gamba sheep a "leader" in driving income growth and wealth.

  “When the cooperative was first formed, I took the lead in letting more than 140 sheep from my family join the cooperative. After three years of hard work, the cooperative has more than 3,000 sheep. In 2021, each household in the village will receive a dividend of more than 9,000 yuan.” Gamba Dan Zhendoji, the Party branch secretary of Xueburang Village in Changlong Township, said that through the development of the Gamba sheep industry, the villagers’ money pockets have been swollen.

  This year's work report of the Tibetan government listed the cultivation and expansion of plateau industries as key tasks in 2022.

According to the report, we will insist on stabilizing grain, invigorating animal husbandry, and strengthening characteristics, carry out nutritional quality evaluation and grading of characteristic agricultural products, and accelerate the certification of green organic sources.

It is believed that this will further promote the development of plateau characteristic industries and bring more benefits to the people.
