Black Soil for Biodiversity in China
In 2021, LDC officially launched its Sprint for Soil black soil protection project in northeast China, in collaboration with China Environmental Protection Foundation, to establish a 170-acre black soil protection zone in Yanji, Jilin Province, China.
The three-year project will explore a set of technical standards and implementation rules for black soil protection techniques, sharing the findings with 6,000 local farmers from 20 surrounding villages.
By providing training on the importance of black soil protection and sustainable farming, the project is expected to have a positive impact on more than 200,000 acres of black soil.
