Grassland sustainability and livestock production in Taipusi Banner,Inner Mongolia

摘要：

Livestock numbers on north China grasslands have increased dramatically as households seek to improve incomes.However in Taipusi Banner,Inner Mongolia, this has resulted in severe over‐grazing and degradation to 70％ of the 130,000 ha of typical steppe grassland. Current stocking rates are in excess of those recommended ( Houston et al.,2004). Sustainable grassland and livestock production requires a systems analysis of current farm practices and options.
