This invention discloses a method for rapidly improving the productivity of degraded
grassland, relating to the field of
grassland ecological restoration technology, and is mainly applicable to degraded
Leymus chinensis meadow steppes in temperate continental semi-
arid climates. The method involves a combined root-
cutting and fertilization operation on the target degraded
grassland, followed by
enclosure and management to complete the restoration. During the regreening period of the degraded grassland, 1-2 rows and oblique root cuts are performed at 6-10 day intervals. Fertilization involves applying 45-60 kg / mu of granular or mixed
organic fertilizer. Granular or mixed
organic fertilizer is applied 3-5 days after root
cutting, and
enclosure and management are implemented for 2-2.5 years with a complete ban on
grazing. This invention is simple to operate, effectively promotes the
natural recovery of
Leymus chinensis communities, rapidly improves the productivity of degraded grasslands, meets the restoration needs of degraded
Leymus chinensis meadow steppes in temperate continental semi-
arid climates, and is easily scalable and applicable.
