Description
The strategy on grassland utilization based on regional vegetation investigation and longterm ecosystem research in the middle part of Innermongolia is described. Although there are some potential capacity for increasing livestock number by the estimation of the primary productivity measurement and some investigation data, but practically, the pasture in some places has been degraded even desertified caused by unreasonable utilization of overgrazing and agricultural cultivations. Therefore on the strategy, to transform the structure both of pastoral and rural area in lnnermongolia would be necessary, i.e. to introduce some means of plantation for artificial range establishing at some limited azonal places. Thus the most important problem of the winter fodder, as well as shortened feeding period are able to be resolved. On the other hand, in rural area of grassland region, the area used for crop culture must be limited, while the proportion of animal husbandry must be increased. Besides, it would be able to accept some livestock comming from pastoral area to pass strict winter and to get fatten feeding rapidly, for commerce aim.
