The Kubuqi, which adjoins a stretch of the Yellow River, is the country's seventh-largest desert.
Years of concerted efforts have seen the amount of sediment running into the river from the desert reduced by 80 percent, while the vegetation coverage rate has reached 53 percent.
The dedication of the sand-control workers has played a vital role in achieving these environmental milestones.
