| Research Abstract |
We visited Beijing, Qinghai, Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Shanghai, Guizhou, Yunnan, Xinjiang, Guangdong, and Guangxi, and researched ethnic group areas in these provinces.

For prevention of desertification and tree planting of grassy plains, there are great hopes on the effect of "Return Farmland to Forests" and "Return Grazing Land to Grassland". At the same time, the issue of emigrant difference in the development period, such as dam construction, is pressing. Less
