Camel breeding industry helps locals increase income in Xinjiang

A herdswoman filters fresh camel milk in Fuhai County of Altay, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, June 11, 2019. Fuhai is located along the ancient Silk Road, where herdsmen of the Kazakh ethnic group have a tradition of raising camels. In recent years, Fuhai has taken full advantage of its camel breeding industry to help locals increase their incomes, with annual per capita net income of herdsmen currently reaching more than 30,000 yuan (about 4,339 U.S. dollars).
