Minqin County is the last line to block the closure of the Tengger Desert and Badanjilin Desert. For more than half a century, due to the influence of natural factors and human activities, the ecological environment of Minqin County has seriously deteriorated. The sustainable development of Minqin County has been restricted because of the unreasonable development and utilization of water resources. This paper analyses the problems and causes of the ecological environment, and reviews the main measures of water resources protection in Minqin County, including the implementation of wells closing and fields burying policy, the promotion of agricultural water-saving technology, the adjustment of planting and industrial structure, ecological migration, as well as the promotion of water rights and water price reform, the optimization of water structure, and discusses the achievements achieved. This paper summarizes the measures and effects of comprehensive control and provides a reference for the ecological restoration of the follow-up study area.
