This group of air force officers and soldiers created a miracle in desertification control. What did they do?

The Air Force has such a team. They are rooted in the west of the motherland all year round. They use small tree seeds and grass seeds to sow green for the motherland and spread hope for the people. The Air Force was awarded by the Central Propaganda Department. The first team of a certain transportation search and rescue team? Model of the times? Title! Declaring war on the yellow sand, they are sowing green? Condor? In the early days of reform and opening up, ecological governance attracted great attention from the country. The People's Air Force actively responded to the call of the party and the country, giving full play to the advantages of large-scale, fast and low-cost aerial seeding, modifying aircraft , train crews, and fly to various places to perform aerial seeding and grass planting tasks.

The first team of a transport search and rescue team of the Air Force was the first unit in the army to carry out aerial seeding afforestation tasks. For 39 years, this team has always been fighting on the front line of ecological poverty alleviation. They overcame sandstorms, During dangerous weather such as thunderstorms, we worked hard to practice difficult aerial sowing techniques such as ultra-low altitude and drilling into ravines, and a total of more than 10,000 tons of seeds were sown in more than 130 provinces (regions) including Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, and Ningxia. Counties (cities), more than 300 sowing areas, and an operating area of ??more than 26 million acres. This team has played an important role in the construction of the "Three North" protective forest, regional economic development and poverty alleviation. It is called by the people, "Over the West" Sowing green condors and flying seeds by plane are very difficult at ultra-low altitudes. Aerial seeding afforestation is mostly carried out in barren mountains, vast deserts and Gobi wilderness. There are no human settlements or control towers, and it must be completed at ultra-low altitudes. The operation is difficult and dangerous. In addition, aerial seeding is seasonal and highly effective. In order to complete the operation before it rains, officers and soldiers often chase wind, rain and wind in order to seize the best window for aerial seeding.

To control desertification in the world, look to China, and to control desertification in China, look to Yulin. The first step in Yulin's desertification control is aerial seeding; now, the harm of sandstorms has dropped from more than 60 days a year before aerial seeding to now In less than 10 days, 30 acres of sandy land in the past could raise one sheep. Now one acre of sandy land can basically raise 6. The oases under the wings are like the biggest medals hung by the mountains and rivers of the motherland. The masses sent "money bags". Located at the intersection of Tengger, Ulan Buh and deserts, Alxa Left Banner in Inner Mongolia was once declared "unsuitable for aerial seeding with an annual precipitation of less than 200 mm." Over the years, the military and civilians have continued to work together to explore experience. , the seed placement rate per square meter, seed preservation rate and seedling emergence rate have all reached advanced levels.

The brigade has operated 5.81 million acres of aerial seeding here, forming a total length of 460 kilometers and a width of 3 to 20 kilometers. A biological desert control border belt has cut off the handshake between the two deserts. Aerial sowing officers and soldiers sow seeds in the air and send money bags to the masses. Sharibula Gacha, Alxa Left Banner, Inner Mongolia, Herdsman Baohong established a camel breeding cooperative with more than 60 herdsmen five years ago, which can increase income by more than 10,000 yuan every year. Baohong said: After the grassland vegetation has been restored, more camels are raised than before. The benefits brought by aerial seeding afforestation to the herders and people are real. We herders are particularly grateful for the contribution of this air force, from the windswept hinterland of Inner Mongolia to the edge of the Mu Us Desert, from the ravine-crissed From the slopes of the plateau to the deep mountains of the Qinling Mountains, a large team of officers and soldiers from a transport search and rescue team of the Air Force have transformed the aerial seeding forest in the operating area from dots to clusters and continuous patches into a long green dragon. Over the past 39 years, this team has successively They changed their name four times and fought in many places. However, no matter how they changed their designation or changed their personnel, they always practiced the fundamental purpose of the people's army and created one desert oase after another. Salute! Sow the green ?Condor?!
