WB Project Benefits Farmers on Loess Plateau
Adjust font size:

Millions of residents on the Loess Plateau in northwest China are enjoying the benefits of the first large-scale water conservation scheme in China supported by the World Bank.

 

The 4.2-billion-yuan (US$517.8 million) Loess Plateau Rehabilitation Project was launched in 1994 and completed last year.

 

It has helped to improve the environment in the plateau area worst hit by soil erosion more than 35,000 square kilometers in Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Gansu provinces and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

 

The World Bank supplied a US$300 million loan for the initiative.

 

Guo Sanren is among 3.2 million people in the area who have benefited from the project.

 

"With the money from the project, we planted trees and carried out a comprehensive renovation on barren land. After several years of hard work, the total annual income of my six-person family increased from 8,000 yuan (US$986) in 1999 to 14,700 yuan (US$1,813) in 2005," Guo said.

 

According to statistics from the project's administrative office, the net annual income of local farmers increased from 585 yuan (US$72) per person in 1994 to 1,624 yuan (US$200) in 2005; the number of people living in poverty decreased from 988,000 to 253,000 people.

 

Tian Wanquan, deputy director of Shaanxi Provincial Water Resources Department, said that about 10,000 square kilometers of land was renovated by the project in Shaanxi.

 

"The vegetation coverage rate in the area covered by the project increased from 17.47 percent at the start to 36.24 percent at its completion," Tian said.
