Golmud Forestry and Grassland Bureau is working on the artificial cultivation technology of safflower astragalus, which will be used for landscape transformation and greening work in our city in the future, and the use of native salinity-tolerant and drought-tolerant plants will greatly reduce the cost of greening and improve the survival rate of green plants.
