In Asia, drylands cover approximately half of the continent (45 million km2), with China being the most affected by aridity, with approximately 6.6 million km2 of drylands that support 580 million people.
These drylands are also affected by desertification and remain at risk of expansion owing to increasing aridity.
Desertification is the process by which land turns into a desert. This in turn has increased the number of dust storms across the worlds drylands, particularly in China.
These dust storms can cause havoc to neighboring cities, causing accidents in resulting in fatalities. Dust storms also have knock on negative effective effects for rural farming communities, such as economic loss due to loss of topsoil and loss of organic matter causing decreased crop yields, Migration of population in affected areas and drifting sand can also affect infrastructure and increase desertification, leading to the abandonment of farmland.
Dust storms also have an ecological impact such as loss of biodiversity in terms of wildlife, plants, and ecosystems. The storms can also impact inland lakes and ground water as well as increase salinity of the soil and much of the continent is at risk, since China has many deserts, covering 27% of the country's land area.
However a miracle is taking place in one of Chinas deserts, called the Babusha Desert located within the vast Tengger Desert. Here an unbelievable effort has taken place, this man-made desert was entirely barren 40 years ago with expanding sand dunes as a result of drought and over cropping.
And now it has totally been transformed, almost all of the desert has turned into a green forest, helping to reduce sandstorms in recent decades.
This unbelievable effort covers an area of 2800 hectares or nearly 250 square kilometers. which used to be completely devoid of trees and now has become a green oasis with over 40 million trees planted across the desert.
A further 7000 hectares of farmland has been protected, with a green corridor now established to prevent further spread of sand, protecting the railways, roads, farmlands and the villagers' homes.
This remarkable restoration story is a perfect example of how it can be possible to bring life back to barren land and it would not of been possible if it wasn't for the heroic work of a group of ordinary farmers, known affectionately as ‘the six old men’. These men spent 38 years of their life regreening the desert and it doesn't stop there, they have passed on the work through the generations.
This transformation was no easy feat, due to the tough weather conditions, storms, shifting sand and other difficulties such as the hard working conditions, inconvenient transportation and inadequate funds.
In the first year of hard work 70% of the saplings got buried by moving dunes. After more trial and error, the six men found a smart way to keep the trees alive.
In this video we will show you how the six old men managed to turn the desert back into a farmland oasis.

    This is so wonderful. I hope and pray that Americans will do the same thing here. I live in Illinois, USA, and some say we have lost about 11 million acres of woodlands to foolish agricultural practices. It is sad how humans misunderstand nature and they sweep it away just to make money. Thanks to people like you at Leaf of Life, some people are starting to educated though and they are seeing that farmers would be better off if they left many shrubs, flowers and trees near and within their farmland due to the biodiversity and the water retention that the plants allow. Thanks so much for covering this. There is a story about 3 Chinese sisters who did what these men do and their story is extraordinary as well. Also, there is one more story of one woman who also started fighting desertification in China by planting trees and she, like the others faced many hardships and lessons that made it very challenging but she succeeded and there is now a flourishing wetland and wooded area in a place that was once baron due to folly. Go China go! So proud of these folks.

    That's a little bit harsh of a judgement.. I think it's a lack of awareness about proper land management. People have tried to work the land to the best of their knowledge. I would argue that we were arrogant never looking to older cultures and how they go about making use of the land. In South American countries a hill or mountain had different sides and specific vegetables were placed on specific sides of that hill based on the experience of how these plants did on these specific spots. There was terrace farming in many countries which most many western countries did not practice. But that's just my observation i might be missing stuff.

    This is not the rest of the story. I watch the story of one of these and the government has come with tractors and pulled everything up. New administrative plan to turn it into farmland required 25 years of work to be destroyed. The owner is to grow crops now and has given up hope. The worst sandstorms ever faced recently smashed Beijing and surrounding regions. Seemingly not everything is going well for some of these projects, heartbreaking reasons for some who have dedicated their lives to the restoration of the forests Mao had cut down.

    That is fantastic. There are a lot of different ways to address desertification. Last month, I saw that a new method is showing great promise of working 3 times faster, and producing better soil with faster results. They made large Oasis, with a variety of edible plants, which attracted wildlife, bugs, and bacteria. An ecosystem develops, and the soil is alive, and everything grows 3 times as fast. You need diverse plants, and not spread out. They should form a type of forest, with edible plants and trees, to attract wildlife. Soil needs bacteria. Soil needs wildlife to not turn into sand.

    My grandfather in California lived in a desert. You have to have a water source, like underground aquafers or river. He had to water his yard morning and night, and then water the trees. I don't believe this. I got a bridge to sell you if you're falling for this kaka. This may work for China, maybe they created the desert by over farming and destroying the topsoil.
