Yili restores 3,667 hectares of degraded grassland in Inner Mongolia

In Ar Horqin Banner, Yili Group Vice President XU Ke said the company applied a grass-livestock integration approach, planting deep-rooted alfalfa to stabilize soil and rehabilitate land that had suffered persistent degradation. The restored grassland now supplies forage while supporting broader ecosystem recovery, creating what Yili describes as a self-reinforcing cycle between land, cattle and dairy production.

Endurance Energy identified a recurring problem raised by visitors from Thailand, Indonesia and neighbouring markets: small gas fields and biogas projects frequently clear geological hurdles but stall on economics because conventional liquefaction trains cannot process off-spec gas compositions.

Virginia Beach – – September 26, 2026 -- Farm Aid 2026 drew a national spotlight to America's family farmers on Saturday, staged at Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater as Chapter 12 farm bankruptcies rose 46% in 2025 and roughly 15,000 farms closed nationwide.

Chapter 12 farm bankruptcies climbed 46% in 2025, marking the third consecutive year of increases

The filing surge represents a sustained deterioration in farm finances rather than a single-year anomaly, with the closures translating into direct losses of local jobs, tax revenue and food-supply capacity across affected counties.
