黑麦草-白三叶人工草地退化趋势研究(英文)

[Objective] The study aimed to explore the degradation law and trend of artificial grassland. [Method] Taking the ryegrass (Lolium perenne)-white clover (Trifolium repens) artificial grassland in Maiping Township, Guizhou Province as the research object, the grassland vegetation of 40 quadrats from different areas (area around the sheep shed, hilltop, hillside, flatland at the foot of the hill) were analyzed by comparing the dominance and richness index. [Result] Degradation of different degrees appeared in various areas of this artificial grassland. To be specific, the degradation of grassland around the sheep shed was not serious for less consumption by the sheep; however, the areas on the hilltop and hillside degenerated to the grassland types of dallis grass (Paspalum dilatatum Poir.)-Indian lovegrass (Eragrostis pilosa) and dallis grass-cogongrass [Imperata cylindrica (Linn.) Beauv.], respectively, and the area at the foot of the hill degenerated to the grassland type dominated by garland chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) and knotgrass (Paspalum distichum L.). [Conclusion] This study provided a basis for grassland improvement as well as the efficient and sustainable utilization of grazing-type artificial grassland in South China.
