Geography and topography

The town is mostly sandy slope ridge thin land and saline alkali land, crop yield is very low, the normal annual yield of about 50 kg per mu. In history, there was no irrigated land except a small amount of valley side depressions irrigated by small streams and silted by flood diversion. Xishan is a divided bare rock mountain, with less mud and more sand, so there is no fertile land, resulting in more sand in winter and spring. In 1958, we began to harness saline alkali beaches. In the 1970s, we paid great attention to the basic construction of farmland and water conservancy with drought resistance as the center. In places with high groundwater level, we drilled motor wells, diverted flood water to suppress alkali in beach areas, diverted water to irrigate land, made full use of small streams on slopes, laid seepage control channels, and expanded irrigated land. In 1978, the irrigated land area of the whole town increased to 6300 mu, accounting for 15% of the cultivated land area. The total grain yield was 4.19 million kg, 108.5 kg per mu; in 1990, the irrigated land reached 8758 mu, and the total grain yield reached 6 million kg, 178 kg per mu.
