Detailed Implementation

[0015] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0016] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, an outdoor cultivation module kit for leguminous grass seeds for degraded grassland restoration includes a sleeve 1, a water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2, a sowing mold, and a water tank 11. The sleeve 1 is composed of multiple side plates 3, which are interconnected to form a hollow tube with an upper opening 8 and a lower opening 9. The sleeve 1 is filled with the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2. The sowing mold is correspondingly arranged with the sleeve 1, and the sowing mold can be inserted into the sleeve 1 through the upper opening 8 to form a substrate pot 10. The water tank 11 is provided with a space for accommodating multiple substrate pots 10. The sowing mold includes a cover plate 5 and sowing tubes 6. The area of ​​the cover plate 5 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the sleeve 1. The cover plate 5 can be fitted into the sleeve 1. Multiple sowing tubes 6 are provided on the cover plate 5. The upper part of the sowing tube 6 is provided with an upper sowing port 4, and the bottom of the sowing tube 6 is provided with a lower sowing port 7. The upper sowing port 4 extends to the upper surface of the cover plate 5, and the lower sowing port 7 extends downwards from the cover plate 5. The multiple sowing tubes 6 are arranged at intervals. The height of the sowing tube 6 is less than the height 2 of the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate.

[0018] An outdoor cultivation module kit for leguminous grass seeds used in the restoration of degraded grasslands. In use, firstly, the sowing mold is inserted into the sleeve 1 through the upper opening 8 and pressed in place, forming a substrate pot. Then, the sowing tube 6 is inserted into the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2, forming a seed channel for sowing. Multiple seed channels are formed on the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2. The sleeve, along with the sowing mold, is dried at a temperature not exceeding 35°C to form a dry substrate pot. The substrate pot is as follows... Figure 3 As shown; then, on the dried substrate pot, sow seeds through the sowing tube 6. Preferably, each sowing tube 6 contains no less than 3-5 seeds of Safflower or 2-3 seeds of Caragana korshinskii. The seeds enter through the sowing port 4 at the top of the sowing tube 6 and fall onto the water-retaining substrate 2 through the sowing port 7 at the bottom. Finally, place the sown and dried substrate pot 10 into the water tank 11 and water the dried substrate pot 10 until it is full of water. Then, transport the moistened substrate pot 10 to the degraded grassland restoration project and place it directly in the transplanting area. There is no need to re-sow the cultivated seeds later, which improves work efficiency.

[0019] Using the cultivation module kit, when watering the dry substrate pot 10, the water-retaining substrate prevents water loss. During sowing, the seeds are spaced apart by the sowing tube 6, improving the germination rate. The seeds also fall accurately into the water-retaining substrate 2 through the sowing tube 6, keeping them moist and improving survival rate. The sowing mold, after being inserted into the sleeve and pressed in place, forms a substrate pot. This substrate pot is placed in a water tank for centralized watering and is easy to transport. The moistened substrate pot 10 is transported to the degraded grassland restoration project and directly transplanted for outdoor cultivation. This improves the germination and survival rates of *Alternanthera philoxeroides* and *Caragana korshinskii*, thus addressing the waste of leguminous grass seeds during desertification control and improving the efficiency of grassland restoration.

[0020] In this preferred embodiment, the sleeve 1, cover plate 5, and seeding tube 6 are made of biodegradable plastic. This prevents the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate from being absorbed by the grassland surface under natural conditions. The biodegradable material can complete its natural degradation within a few years, reducing the damage of plastic to the grassland environment.

[0021] In this preferred embodiment, the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2 comprises bentonite, fermented and decomposed cow and sheep manure, and microorganisms. Adding fermented and decomposed cow and sheep manure and microorganisms to the bentonite allows the bentonite to retain water and moisture, while the fermented and decomposed cow and sheep manure and microorganisms help improve seed germination rate and survival rate.

[0022] Multiple seeding tubes 6 are evenly arranged along the longitudinal and transverse directions of the cover plate 5. This facilitates seeding operations, and the seeds are spaced apart to improve the seed germination rate.

[0023] The lower sowing port 7 of the sowing tube 6 is 3 to 5 centimeters away from the bottom surface of the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2. This can further improve the water retention and moisture-retaining effect on the seeds.

[0024] In this preferred embodiment, the length of the sowing tube 6 is 3 to 5 centimeters. The height of the water-retaining and moisture-retaining substrate 2 is 6 to 10 centimeters. The height of the sleeve 1 is 3 to 5 centimeters. This is suitable for the growth of plants such as *Saussurea involucrata* or *Caragana korshinskii*, further improving the plant survival rate.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
