In mid-to-late March, Fukang City in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region enters its peak camel calving season, boosting local employment and incomes through the expanding camel industry. With 21,000 camels, including 16,000 females, about 6,000 are currently calving. The industry benefits from government support — such as land, water, and electricity infrastructure — enabling large-scale breeding and higher milk production. Sales are expected to exceed 760 million yuan in 2026, driving continued economic growth for local herders.
