[HIGHLIGHTS] China has strengthened the management and transformation of saline-alkali land and awakened the reserve resources of cultivated land that has "slept."

China has 15.5 billion mu of saline-alkali land, equivalent to nearly eighty percent of the existing arable land. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs made a new deployment, making it clear that it is necessary to systematically plan and promote the comprehensive utilization.

The use of 1% more saline-ALKali land in the world is equivalent to an increase in world grain production of 5000 million tons, which can meet the annual food needs of 1 million people. In these places, the soil salt and alkali content is significantly higher than normal, and it is difficult to grow.
