摘要
The ＂Three-North＂ Shelterbelt is the largest and most distinctive artificial ecological engineering project in China. It has been conducted since November 25, 1978 in the ＂Three-North＂ （i.e., Northeast China, North China and Northwest China） regions. In this study, the background and the essential benefits of the ＂Three-North＂ Shelterbelt project are summarized. The basic status and future development of the ＂Three-North＂ Shelterbelt project are also studied. As well, we tried to discuss the problems existing in the current shelterbelt system and the strategies to conduct this ecological project rationally.
