[0002] In China, dry land is mainly distributed in the north of the Huaihe River, the Qinling Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains. Dry land agricultural production accounts for 58% of the country's grain and more than 75% of beef and mutton, and also covers more than 70% of the ecologically fragile areas. Therefore, in the semi-arid region with relatively less rainfall, promoting the development of agriculture and animal husbandry is of great significance to ensure national food security and ecological security.
[0003] In recent years, with the rapid development of China's animal husbandry, the planting area of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. Medicago sativa L. , hereinafter referred to as "alfalfa") has been increasing, and alfalfa has become the most important perennial legume forage grass in the vast northern dry land areas of Northwest China, North China and Northeast China. However, in order to obtain high yield, the traditional planting method of dry land alfalfa monoculture or mixed planting with perennial gramineous forage grasses requires multiple irrigation every year, resulting in a large consumption of underground water, which not only increases the production cost of planting enterprises, but also aggravates the ecological pressure in the northern dry land area.

[0044] The present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings. EMBODIMENT
[0045] 1 Materials and methods
[0046] 1.1 Test site
[0047] The test site was located in Ma Dianjian Gou village, Xingyang Town, Zhengyan Banner, Xilingol League, Inner Mongolia (42°05′N, 114°05′E, average altitude 1200 m). The region belongs to the climate of the middle temperate continental arid, large diurnal temperature difference, sufficient light, and rainy and hot season. The precipitation is less and concentrated, the annual average precipitation is 351 mm, the annual average temperature is 1.9℃, the average temperature of the coldest month is-19.1℃, and the average temperature of the hottest month is 17.6℃. The frost-free period is about 120 days, the effective accumulated temperature of ≥10℃ is 2000℃-2350℃, the sunshine hours of the pasture growing period (May-September) is about 1350 hours, and the soil is mainly chestnut soil.
[0048] 1.2 Test materials
[0049] The test selected forage oat of Gramineae and alfalfa, forage soybean and arrow pea of Leguminosae as research materials. The oat variety for the test was “Qingshuihe Oat” from the Seedling Station of Qingshuihe County, Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region; the alfalfa variety for the test was “Zhongcao No. 13” from the Grassland Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences; the forage soybean variety for the test was “Guixia No. 3” from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Academy of Agricultural Sciences; and the arrow pea variety for the test was “Qingshuihe Arrow Pea” from the Seedling Station of Qingshuihe County, Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
[0050] 1.3 Test design and field management
[0051] The test adopted a completely randomized block design, and 9 treatments were set, including 5 mixed planting (intercropping) treatments: forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 (2 rows of forage oat + 1 row of forage soybean), forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 (2 rows of forage oat + 1 row of alfalfa), forage oat / alfalfa 3:1 (3 rows of forage oat + 1 row of alfalfa), forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 (2 rows of forage oat + 1 row of arrow pea), and forage oat / arrow pea 3:1 (3 rows of forage oat + 1 row of arrow pea). There were 4 single planting treatments, including single planting forage oat, single planting forage soybean, single planting alfalfa, and single planting arrow pea. Each treatment was set with 3 replicates. The plot area was 20 m 2(4 m × 5 m), and a 50-cm isolation strip was set between plots. On June 1, 2022, the seeding rate of forage oat, forage soybean, alfalfa, and arrow pea was 225, 60, 22.5, and 90 kg / hm2, respectively. The seeding rate of mixed planting (intercropping) was calculated according to the percentage of single planting. The row spacing was 20 cm. The seeding depth of forage oat, forage soybean, and arrow pea was 4-5 cm, and that of alfalfa was 1-2 cm. During the seedling stage, the plots were manually weeded and irrigated in a timely manner. When the forage oat was at the jointing stage, urea was applied to all plots at a rate of 150 kg / hm2. At the end of August 2022, all plots were harvested for forage, and the stubble height of alfalfa was 5-7 cm. The land was not plowed after harvesting.
[0052] In mid-April 2023, two rows of forage oat were sown in the inter-row of the 2:1 mixed planting plot of forage oat / alfalfa after the alfalfa turned green. The seeding rate of forage oat was 12 kg / acre, and the seeding depth was 5 cm. Compound fertilizer was applied at a rate of 15 kg / acre during sowing. After sowing, the soil was lightly covered and timely pressed. Since the alfalfa had been successfully planted the following year, the growth of other weeds in the field was very weak, and weed control was not necessary. When the alfalfa was at the branching stage, 150 kg of urea per hectare was applied with rainfall by spraying. Pest control was mainly preventive, and pesticides were sprayed by unmanned aerial vehicles according to the occurrence. Ten days before harvesting, pesticides were stopped. Under the experimental conditions, three crops of forage were harvested each year. The first crop of mixed grass of alfalfa / forage oat was harvested in late June during the initial flowering period of alfalfa. The weather was sunny, and the stubble height was 8 cm. Drying, baling, and storage were completed within 7 days after mowing. The second and third crops of alfalfa grass were harvested in late July and late August, respectively, during the initial flowering period of alfalfa. The weather was sunny, and the stubble height was 6-8 cm. Drying, baling, and storage were completed within 7 days after mowing.
[0053] In mid-April 2023, two rows of forage oat were sown in the inter-row of the 2:1 mixed planting plot of forage oat / alfalfa after the alfalfa turned green. The seeding rate of forage oat was 12 kg / acre, and the seeding depth was 5 cm. Compound fertilizer was applied at a rate of 15 kg / acre during sowing. After sowing, the soil was lightly covered and timely pressed. Since the alfalfa had been successfully planted the following year, the growth of other weeds in the field was very weak, and weed control was not necessary. When the alfalfa was at the branching stage, 150 kg of urea per hectare was applied with rainfall by spraying. Pest control was mainly preventive, and pesticides were sprayed by unmanned aerial vehicles according to the occurrence. Ten days before harvesting, pesticides were stopped. Under the experimental conditions, three crops of forage were harvested each year. The first crop of mixed grass of alfalfa / forage oat was harvested in late June during the initial flowering period of alfalfa. The weather was sunny, and the stubble height was 8 cm. Drying, baling, and storage were completed within 7 days after mowing. The second and third crops of alfalfa grass were harvested in late July and late August, respectively, during the initial flowering period of alfalfa. The weather was sunny, and the stubble height was 6-8 cm. Drying, baling, and storage were completed within 7 days after mowing.
[0054] 1.4 Index determination and method
[0055] The test was conducted in mid-August 2022 and 2023.
[0056] 1.4.1 Plant height
[0057] In the plot, 10 plants with uniform growth were randomly selected, and the absolute height from the base to the top of the plant was measured with a tape measure as the plant height.
[0058] 1.4.2 Number of branches / tillers
[0059] In the plot, 10 plants with uniform growth vigor were randomly selected for each species, and the number of tillers was counted for grasses and the number of branches was counted for legumes.
[0060] 1.4.3 Forage yield
[0061] In the center of the plot, a 1 m × 1 m quadrat was selected, and all forages in the quadrat were cut to a stubble height of 5 cm. The forages were then separated and packaged in envelopes, labeled, and brought back to the laboratory. They were then killed in a 105℃ oven for 30 minutes and dried at 65℃ for 48 hours until constant weight. The dry forage yield of each forage was calculated.
[0062] 1.4.4 Stem-leaf ratio
[0063] In the plot, 10 plants were randomly selected for each species, and the stems and leaves were separated. They were then killed in a 105℃ oven for 30 minutes and dried at 65℃ for 48 hours until constant weight. The dry weight of the stems and leaves was then measured. The stem-leaf ratio was calculated using the following formula:
[0064]
[0065] 1.5 Data processing
[0066] Data was processed using Excel 2010 software, analyzed using IBM SPSS 22.0 software, and plotted using GraphPad Prism10 software.
[0067] 2 Results and analysis
[0068] 2.1 Effect of different mixed planting modes on forage yield in the planting year
[0069] For example Figure 1As shown, compared with single cropping of forage oat, the yield of forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 mixed cropping, forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed cropping and forage oat / arrow pea 3:1 mixed cropping increased by 1.5%, 114% and 34% respectively. Among them, the yield of forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed cropping was the highest, which could reach 4110.6 kg / hm2 on average; the yield of forage oat / alfalfa 3:1 mixed cropping and forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed cropping decreased; compared with single cropping of forage soybean, the yield of forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 mixed cropping decreased by 64%; compared with single cropping of alfalfa, the yield of forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed cropping increased by 63% compared with single cropping, but the yield of forage oat / alfalfa 3:1 mixed cropping decreased by 25% compared with single cropping; compared with single cropping of arrow pea, the yield of single cropping of arrow pea was higher than that of forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed cropping and forage oat / arrow pea 3:1 mixed cropping, and the yield of mixed cropping decreased.
[0070] In summary, from the perspective of forage yield, the yield of forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed cropping was the highest, and the production advantage was obvious compared with single cropping of forage oat and single cropping of alfalfa.
[0071] 2.2 Effects of different mixed cropping modes on plant height, stem-leaf ratio and tiller number of forage oat in the planting year
[0072] Plant height is the main factor determining the single plant biomass of forage grass, such as Figure 2 As shown in the table Figure 2 Among them, a, b and c represent the significance of difference, and the same letter above the column represents no difference, and different letters above the column represent significant difference, Figures 3-4 Among them, a, b, c, d, e and f all mean this), under different mixed cropping treatments, the plant height of forage oat in forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 mixed cropping and forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed cropping was significantly higher than that in single cropping of forage oat (P<0.05), among them, the plant height of forage oat in forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed cropping increased by 17.4% compared with single cropping. But there was no significant difference between forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 mixed cropping and forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed cropping (P>0.05). The plant height of forage oat in forage oat / alfalfa 3:1 mixed cropping was the lowest, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rest of the mixed cropping treatments. There was no obvious difference in the plant height of forage oat in forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed cropping compared with single cropping.
[0073] As for the stem-leaf ratio, from Figure 3The stem-leaf ratio of the forage oat in the forage oat / alfalfa 3:1 mixed planting treatment and the forage oat / arrow pea 2:1 mixed planting treatment was significantly lower than that in the forage oat monoculture treatment, and the stem-leaf ratio of the forage oat in the other mixed planting treatments was significantly higher than that in the monoculture treatment (P<0.05). The quality of the forage oat was higher in the forage oat / forage soybean 2:1 treatment, the forage oat / arrow pea 3:1 treatment, and the forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed planting treatment.
[0074] As shown in Table 2, different planting methods had no significant effect on the tiller number of the forage oat (P>0.05). Figure 4
[0075] In the forage oat monoculture and different mixed planting modes, the forage oat / alfalfa 2:1 mixed planting treatment had no significant effect on the height and tiller number of the forage oat, but the stem-leaf ratio of the forage oat was significantly higher than that in the monoculture treatment, and the quality of the forage oat was improved.
[0076] 2.3-year forage oat / alfalfa mixed planting (intercropping) effect on forage yield
[0077] Through the comparison of the effects of the mixed planting methods in the planting year on the forage yield, it was found that the forage oat / alfalfa mixed planting (intercropping) had higher comprehensive benefits than the forage oat / yearling forage soybean and arrow pea mixed planting in the semi-arid region of the north. Therefore, from the second year, the effects of the forage oat monoculture, the alfalfa monoculture, the one-row alfalfa + two-row forage oat mixed planting, and the one-row alfalfa + three-row forage oat mixed planting on the total fresh forage yield were compared in the selected forage oat / alfalfa mixed planting (intercropping) planting mode. It was found that the total fresh forage yield in the one-row alfalfa + two-row forage oat mixed planting was the highest, reaching 2533.3 kg / acre, which was increased by 26.2%, 93.2%, and 86.4% compared with the one-row alfalfa + three-row forage oat mixed planting, the alfalfa monoculture, and the forage oat monoculture, respectively. In summary, the forage yield of the one-row alfalfa + two-row forage oat mixed planting was the highest in the two consecutive years under the experimental conditions, and the economic benefit was considerable.
[0078] Table 1 Change characteristics of forage yield in the second year under different planting methods
[0079] Planting pattern Fresh grass yield of the first crop (kg / acre) Fresh grass yield of the second crop (kg / acre) Total fresh grass yield (kg / acre) Feed oat monoculture - 1359.2 1359.2 Alfalfa monoculture 932.5 378.9 1311.4 One row of alfalfa + two rows of feed oat 1486.1 1047.2 2533.3 One row of alfalfa + three rows of feed oat 1113.9 893.8 2007.7
[0080] Note: "-" indicates that the forage oat is an annual forage, and therefore can only be harvested once a year; while the alfalfa is a perennial forage, and can be harvested twice a year in the experimental planting area.
[0081] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and is not a limitation on the scope of protection of the present application, and simple modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present application by those skilled in the art do not deviate from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
