We need to pay attention to pests and diseases in summer, and mainly pay attention to fire prevention in winter.
[Explanation] During the patrol with Sanjayga, the reporter found that the management and protection work not only requires walking at least four hours in the forest farm at an altitude of 3,000 meters, but also checking the growth of vegetation in the forest farm, whether there is illegal use of fire in the wild, and publicity instructions. Whether the facilities such as card auctions are complete, whether livestock have entered the managed forest land, etc., will then be fully recorded in the work manual and fed back to more professional colleagues for data analysis.

The seeds that fell from the big trees grow on the ground. If the cattle and sheep do not enter, they can germinate naturally. There are many small saplings, which are better than artificial afforestation.
[Commentary] Sanjayga told reporters that because he couldn't ride a motorcycle, he could only walk from the management station to the forest farm in the early years, and he left before dawn in the morning to complete the day's patrol mission.
Now, more and more people join the forest and grass management team, and every patrol can be with colleagues who can ride motorcycles, which is much more convenient than before.
[Commentary] As the Spring Festival is approaching, the weather is dry, which is a critical period for forest protection and fire prevention. The guards will be stationed in the station every day, and the number of patrols will increase accordingly. Sanjayjia recalled the Spring Festival a few years ago. When he observed the forest farm with binoculars , and found that there was thick smoke coming out of the distance, and he could not drive a motorcycle alone, so he took a fire extinguisher and ran to the mountain on foot, and found that the sparks splashed from the nearby villagers when they were simmering mulberry ignited the weeds. Fortunately, it was extinguished in time. The wooded areas behind were not endangered.

This is the tradition of our Tibetans - simmering mulberry. During the Spring Festival, we have to watch for six days and six nights, and wait until all the burning materials of the butter lamp are burnt and the fire is extinguished before we leave.
【解说】桑杰加说，完成一次巡护要徒步近10公里路，十三年间不知道走坏了多少双鞋，起初只是为了有一份工作，但看着一棵棵小树苗逐渐长大，荒山坡变绿，自己不仅在这里实现了人生价值，也对这片林场有了很深的感情，
