China’s grassland ecosystems have shown remarkable recovery during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), with the National Forestry and Grassland Administration (NFGA) reporting significant improvements in biodiversity and soil health. As the initiative enters its final weeks, experts highlight its role in combating desertification and supporting rural economies.
Key measures included a nationwide grazing ban in fragile areas and AI-powered monitoring systems 🔍. "This isn’t just about grass—it’s about securing food supplies and fighting climate change," said NFGA spokesperson Li Wei during a press briefing last week.
Young environmentalists are celebrating the news on social media, with #GrasslandGlow trending among eco-conscious Gen Z communities. The restored areas now absorb 15% more carbon annually than in 2020, according to NFGA data.
Looking ahead, officials confirm that grassland protection will remain a priority in post-2025 policies, with new digital tools and community partnerships in development 🚀.
