The valley of the Yangzi River has some of China's most productive farmland. The periodic flooding brings both rich fertile soil and devastation. Dikes have failed to contain the river.

Its construction will take at least 10 years and will create a 400 mile-long lake behind it, submerging historic temples and relocating millions to less fertile ground
