摘要

In the early 1980s,six ordinary men from Gulang County,Gansu Province placed their thumbprints on a contract for a piece of desert land,vowing that they would turn it into an oasis.Over 38 years,these six men and their descendants planted 14,500 hectares of forest and 40 million trees,forming a solid buffer of green surrounding the area’s railways,highways,farms,and poverty alleviation settlement.The group that has now been working on the Babusha Forest Farm for three generations has been honored as a model of the times and received a strong positive response from society.
