In sharp contrast to the thinly vegetated towering peaks in the background, the slope on which Long Tingheng’s orchard sprawls is densely covered with assorted fruit trees.Locals nickname the slope Mountains of Flowers and Fruits. Long, a farmer in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province in southwest China, has seen his life transformed by the orchard of about 0.67 hectares.His family planted cherry, plum and apple trees, which fetched more than 200,000 yuan($28,620) in 2019, he said.
