Core Viewpoint - The water conservancy projects in Xinjiang have significantly improved agricultural irrigation, flood control, and ecological sustainability, contributing to the region's high-quality economic and social development over the past 70 years [1]. Group 1: Water Conservancy Projects - The construction of the Altash Water Conservancy Hub began in 2011, addressing challenges such as high seismic intensity and deep riverbed coverage, and has since improved flood control standards and expanded irrigated areas from 6.51 million acres to over 10 million acres [2]. - The Dashi Gorge Water Conservancy Hub, part of a national initiative, is expected to provide ecological water for over 8 million acres of farmland upon completion in 2026, with a total reservoir capacity of 1.17 billion cubic meters [3]. Group 2: Economic and Social Impact - The Altash project has created approximately 12,000 job opportunities during its construction, with over 3,000 technical workers trained, leading to an expected per capita annual income of 24,000 yuan in the village by 2024 [2]. - The Uruvat Water Conservancy Hub has supplied 23.9 billion cubic meters of water, increasing irrigated areas to 6.0379 million acres and improving irrigation water utilization efficiency to 0.575 [4]. Group 3: Technological Integration - The introduction of digital technologies in irrigation has reduced water usage from 90 cubic meters per acre to 35 cubic meters per acre, saving significant costs and improving crop yields by 20 kilograms per acre [7]. - The digital agricultural training base has trained over 20,000 individuals, enhancing fertilizer utilization rates by 20% and reducing labor costs by over 70% [7]. Group 4: Infrastructure Development - Xinjiang has constructed 671 reservoirs, 125,400 kilometers of irrigation channels, and over 8,000 kilometers of protective embankments, achieving an irrigation area of 99.17 million acres and a rural tap water coverage rate of 99% [8].

Core Insights - The water management projects in Xinjiang have significantly improved agricultural productivity and ecological sustainability, marking a transition from traditional water usage to modern, efficient systems [1][2][3]. Group 1: Water Infrastructure Development - The construction of the Altash Water Conservancy Project began in 2011, addressing challenges such as high seismic activity and deep riverbed layers, resulting in enhanced flood control and irrigation capacity [2]. - After the project became operational in 2021, the irrigated area increased from 6.51 million acres to over 10 million acres, doubling local grain production [2]. - The Dashi Gorge Water Conservancy Project, part of a national initiative, is expected to provide ecological water for over 8 million acres of farmland upon completion in 2026 [3]. Group 2: Technological Integration in Water Management - The Uruvat Water Conservancy Project has supplied 23.9 billion cubic meters of water, increasing irrigated land to 6.0379 million acres and improving water utilization efficiency to 0.575 [4][5]. - Digital technologies have been integrated into irrigation practices, allowing farmers to manage water usage through mobile applications, significantly reducing costs and increasing crop yields [7]. Group 3: Economic and Employment Impact - The Altash project created approximately 12,000 job opportunities during its construction, with over 3,000 technical workers trained, contributing to local economic growth [2]. - The average annual income in the village is projected to reach 24,000 yuan by 2024, reflecting the positive economic impact of these water management projects [2]. Group 4: Overall Water Resource Management - Xinjiang has constructed 671 reservoirs and over 12,540 kilometers of irrigation channels, achieving a rural tap water coverage rate of 99% [8]. - The region's water management strategy emphasizes water conservation, spatial balance, and systematic governance, aiming to enhance water resource management [8].

叶尔羌河畔村民告别"汛期守河"，和田绿洲棉田迎来"准点供水"，玛纳斯棉农靠手机"管水"，塔里木河 流域大石峡水利枢纽工程稳步推进……新疆维吾尔自治区成立70年来，水利事业实现从"人逐水 走"到"水为人用"的跨越，交出了一份惠及民生、守护生态、支撑发展的答卷，成为新疆经济社会高质 量发展的坚实基石。 兴修工程，农田用水有保障 "过去每年5到8月，全村人都要守在河边防洪。"莎车县霍什拉甫乡阿尔塔什村村民玛尔江古丽·图尔荪 至今对10多年前的叶尔羌河记忆犹新。这条河曾是新疆洪涝灾害最严重的河流之一，每年汛期，流域 90%以上劳动力都要投入防洪。 改变开始于2011年阿尔塔什水利枢纽的破土动工。这座工程从一开始就面临"高面板堆石坝、高边坡、 高地震烈度、河床覆盖层深"的难题。"上百家参建企业施工人员翻山越岭、风餐露宿，用10年时间啃下 了这块硬骨头。"新疆叶河公司副总经理段新文说。 2021年工程投运后，叶尔羌河下游防洪标准大幅提升，灌溉面积从651万亩拓展至千万亩以上。玛尔江 古丽的生活变了样，"现在春灌、冬灌用水都准时，粮食产量翻了一倍！"她家买了运输车，还住进了宽 敞的新房。 智慧赋能，绿洲焕发新生机 在塔里木 ...
