Sichuan Province will start the construction of provincial grassland tourism park and provincial grassland ecological animal husbandry industrial park in the year, and strive to radiate the whole pastoral area in about 10 years. This is what I learned recently from the Provincial Forestry and Grassland Bureau.

_Provincial grassland tourism park will rely on Northwest Sichuan and Liangshan grassland highway, combining grassland scenery, national culture and folk customs, to develop tourism economy. Specifically, it is to lock in 1600 kilometers of highways from Luding to Batang, Wenchuan to Dege, Wenchuan to Zoige, break the geographical restrictions and unify planning and construction. The main idea is to collocate plants and shrubs at different altitudes in the vegetation belt of 2 kilometers along the highway to form a highway grassland sightseeing belt for self-driving tours.

_Provincial grassland ecological animal husbandry industrial park is to rationally allocate forage cultivation, animal products processing and eco-tourism along pastoral highways under the premise of protecting grassland ecological environment, so as to realize the organic integration of primary, secondary and tertiary industries. At the same time, the herdsmen in high altitude areas are diverted to both sides of the highway with lower altitude and stronger land output, so as to realize the income increase of farmers and herdsmen and the balance of grass and livestock.

Sichuan Province is one of the five major pastoral areas in China, with 313 million mu of grassland and more than 212 million mu of usable area, ranking in the forefront of the country.
