Hani people have cultivated the land into terraced rice paddies for at least 1,300 years, creating a unique manufactured landscape. RCC director Helmuth Trischler and Alumni Fellows Don Worster, Ed Russell, and Hou Shen visited Yunnan prior to the RCC-sponsored conference “Manufacturing Landscapes—Nature and Technology in Environmental History” at the Center for Ecological History at Renmin University, Beijing (28–31 May 2015).
