The plateau agriculture is inseparable from highland barley, Dawa Dhondup, a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), said on Thursday.

"Our goal is to cultivate highland barley varieties that can be planted at altitudes above 3,800 meters, providing technical support for the high-quality development of plateau agriculture, and aiming to achieve harmonious coexistence between human and nature," Dawa Dhondup said.
