Abstract: The development of desertification in North China has been concerning the living environment of million of population in 212 conties of provinces(autonomous regions).This is an urgent problem in land reclamation remain to be solved. In this paper.based on the environmental features of the semi-arid areas mentioned above and the degree of diffculty in harnessing the desertified land, these reas were divided into three types, i. e.easily restorable area, moderately re-storable area and difficult restorable area. Four concrete measures are recommended:1. To regulate the proportion of land use and intensively manage the land with better moisture condition. 2. To develop forage-growing, popularize the system of indoor or half-indoor-feeding of livestock, in which the grazing of animals on rangelands is combined with feedlot fattening, so an appropriate part of land for forage and grain-growing is needed. 3. To recover the vegetation and rehabilitate the desertified land that has lost its potential productivity. 4. To control effectively the poulation birth rate.
