Suitable grazing methods for the Stipa bungeana grassland in Southern Ningxia foothills

摘要：

After a grazing ban on a hilly mountain pasture in Southern Ningxia for 3 years,improvements were shown to have occurred in the ecology of the local environment.However in order to utilize grassland resources,long‐term grazing bans are not a preferable option.Guyuan City in Ningxia has many hills and mountains and grazing has always been an important part of agriculture in the area 1,2.Additionally,it is questioned whether a grazing ban can be more beneficial to the ecology of a grassland than reasonable grazing.Investigation is required to highlight potentially better grazing management methods for grassland ecology whilst increasing farmer income.
