According to reports, the latest monitoring results of the Ministry of Water Resources show that the current national soil erosion area has dropped to 265340,000 square kilometers, a decrease of 8 compared with 2018350,000 square kilometers, showing two good trends: the first trend is the "double decline" of soil erosion area and intensity, and the other trend is the "double reduction" of water and wind erosion, which has achieved certain results.

Yu Qiyang introduced that the Ministry of Water Resources has comprehensively strengthened the prevention and protection of soil erosion. Strengthen the spatial management and control of soil and water conservation, scientifically implement differentiated protection and governance measures, increase the prevention of soil erosion in key areas such as river headwaters, important water sources, and water and wind erosion areas, and coordinate the promotion of regional integrated ecological protection and restoration of national key ecological function areas, ecological protection red lines, nature reserves, etc., so as to enhance the water and soil conservation functions of ecosystems.

At the same time, man-made soil erosion supervision should be strictly supervised in accordance with the law. Improve the supervision system and standard system covering all man-made soil erosion behaviors, introduce soil and water conservation plans and management measures for production and construction projects, and guidelines for soil erosion prevention and control in agricultural and forestry development activities, complete the remote sensing supervision of soil and water conservation covering the whole country, and organize all localities to investigate and deal with violations of laws and regulations in soil and water conservation in accordance with the law130,000.

In terms of speeding up the control of soil erosion in key areas, the Ministry of Water Resources has continued to implement key national soil and water conservation projects in key areas such as the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River, the Loess Plateau, the black soil area in Northeast China, and the source area of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. In 2023, a total of 81 ** funds will be arranged400 million yuan, a total of 1 soil erosion area270,000 square kilometers, 82 sloping cultivated land460,000 acres, 600 new silt dams and sand dams, 432 dangerous silt dams were reinforced, 2,067 erosion ditches in the black soil area of Northeast China were treated, and 505 ecologically clean small watersheds were created.
