Abstract: Analysis of the data accumulated in the past few decades indicates that drainage from farm fields has been steadily affecting the water quality of Tarim River, making it more salinized. In making use of the drainage as resources, there are several advantages:1) there already exist a certain number of drainage networks which are not very difficult to extend and remold:2) deserts can be used as object for drainage utilization;3) the drainage is still barely suitable for irrigation of salt tolerant plants. Based on different regions, the drainage can be used to expand sand control belts of arbors, shrubs and grasses, to increase vegetation coverage of Halosols deserts by salt tolerant plants, or to set up protective belts of salt tolerant plants around artificial oases.
