National Grass Protection Resources Census Pilot Pilot Starting

A few days ago, the nationwide census pilot pilot was launched in Inner Mongolia.

"my country is one of the centers of species diversity recognized in the world, and is the second largest country in the world. Not only does it have grassland vegetation with tropical, subtropical, warm temperate, medium temperature and cold temperate, but also the world's unique high -cold grassland. There are more than 9,700 herbal plants in a census of grassland resource census. At present, the grassland area of ​​my country is about 400 million hectares, accounting for 41.7%of the total land area of ​​my country, which is nearly 4 times that of farmland area. " Professor Fu Jinmin, the leader of the resource and technical collaboration group and Lu Dong University, introduced the protection and utilization of grass -quality resources in my country. Food and drug safety, energy safety, and ecological safety are a country's basic, long -term, strategic, and public welfare undertakings. It strengthens the protection and utilization of grass quality resources. It is of great significance to promote the steady development of grass animal husbandry, accelerate the adjustment of agricultural structure, and promote ecological environmental governance. "

According to the State Forestry and Grassland Bureau Forestry Farm Seeds, the protection and utilization of grass -quality resources in my country starts late, the foundation is weak, the grass -quality resources are unclear, the collection of insufficient collection, and insufficient evaluation and utilization is very prominent. There are severe regional, decentralized, and intermittent defects in protecting and utilization of work. Due to environmental changes and artificial interference, the grassland area of ​​my country has decreased, the diversity of grass and plants decreases, and grassland degeneration, desertification and saline alkaliization are increasing. A large number of grass -quality resources with a large amount of use value or potential use of value are increasingly endangered or even disappeared. Although my country has basically grasped the quantity, spatial distribution, type, ecological quality and utilization status of grass resources, as well as grassland protection and restoration of degradation, but the main grass such as grass, pastoral grass, lawn grass, ornamental grass, and industrial raw materials for ecological repair The types of quality resources, distribution, quantity, habitat, and changes in types are not clear enough. Some of the rare endangered, unique species and wild near -relationship plant resources are still seriously lost, especially for relatively lagging on the development and utilization of grass type resources, lack of effectiveness, lack of effective Grass quality resource sharing mechanism.

It is understood that in August 2019, my country launched the national census of forest and grass germplasm resources for the first time, and the census of forest species resources was carried out before. This time, the pilot work of the national grass quality resource census is an important part of the national forest and grass -quality resource census work. It is mainly to further improve the technical specifications of the census of grass quality resources through the census pilot, and to fully summarize and refine the experience that can be replicated and promoted. Practice to cultivate a high -level technical team. Nearly 20 census players from the China Forestry Science Research Institute, the Shandong Forestry Gender Resources Center, the Ludong University Binhai Grass Industry Science and Technology Research Institute and other scientific research institutes and universities will use remote sensing technology, drone technology, advanced samples Preservation technology, etc., carry out centralized census and collection of grass -quality resources in Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
