Here we introduce an ecosystem management approach aimed at revitalizing degraded grasslands by sowing perennial forage species(Figure 1.1). It was developed based on extensive long-term, site-based research conducted within the Inner Mongolia Grassland Ecosystem Research Station (IMGERS) of the CAS. This approach is applicable to areas with annual precipitation greater than 280 mm or areas with accessible groundwater, including hilly lowlands with fertile soils and sufficient precipitation suitable for planting artificial grassland and abandoned flat farmlands that can be converted to irrigated artificial grassland. This approach should be useful and of interest to those working in the grassland management and land resource sectors for further upscaling.
