泥沙是黄河的症结所在。历代治河,只讲排沙入海,局限在下游;解放后,搞节节蓄水,分段拦泥。实践证明,单纯的排或拦,都没有解决泥沙问题,都有片面性。从三十多年的治黄情况看来,要解决泥沙问题,必须实行以水土保持为基础,拦、排、放相结合的方针。 Sediment is the crux of the Yellow River. Throughout the ancient dynasties, only to say that sediment into the sea, confined to the lower reaches; after the liberation, engage in saving water, staging mud. Facts have proved that there is no one-sidedness in solving the sediment problem simply by platoon or bar. From the situation of governing the Yellow River for over thirty years, it seems that to solve the problem of sediment, we must implement the principle of combining barricade, platoon and release based on soil and water conservation.
