- W3146386825 abstract "Lucerne (Medicago sativa), milkvetch (Astragalus adsurgens) and licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) are among the most important forage legumes on the Loess Plateau in China. Various studies have been undertaken on herbage dry matter yield, effects on water and soil conservation, and management aspects of these three legume species. However, study on soil fertility, weeds, and botanical composition of the plant communities has been sparse. Therefore, the biomass, weed invasion and soil fertility of four-year-old monocultures of lucerrne, milkvetch and licorice were investigated on the rolling country of the Loess Plateau in Huanxian county, Gansu Province, China in 2002. The results showed that the population height of milkvetch is 33.8% and 623.0% higher than lucerne and licorice, respectively. Similarly, milkvetch had the highest coverage (65.8%), followed by lucerne (48.5%), and licorice had the lowest coverage (1.0%). The plant density measured as number of plants per m~2 was 22.5 for lucerne, 8.5 for milkvetch and 3.8 for licorice. The above-ground biomass of lucerne, milkvetch and licorice was 255.2, 152.6 and 1.1g/m~2, respectively, while total community above-ground biomass of lucerne, milkvetch and licorice meadows was 271.1, 169.6 and 115.5g/m~2, and the above-ground biomass ratios of each legume species. To their total communities were 91.9%, 90.0% and 0.9%, respectively. The under-ground biomass of licorice, lucerne and milkvetch meadow communities at 0~100 cm soil depth was 1 142.4, 307.8, and 195.1g/m~2, respectively, and the percentage of licorice, lucerne and milkvetch was 72%, 89% and 67%, respectively. The total community above-ground to underground biomass ratio of licorice, lucerne and milkvetch meadows was 9.89, 1.14 and 1.15. The main weed species found in the three fields differed. The most important weeds in the lucerne field were Lespedeza davurica, Artemisia capillaries and Pennisetlum flaccidum, and the three weeds above-ground biomass percentages were 21.1%, 11.2% and 11.1%, respectively; whereas these percentages in licorice meadow were 16.9%、26.8%、33.2%, respectively. There were much fewer weeds in milknetch fieds in terms of both species and density. The major weed found in milkvetch meadow was Agriophyllum arenarium, and its percentage of above-ground biomass was 6.7%. The soil water content of licorice, lucerne and milkvetch meadows at 0~200 cm soil depth was 175.8, 210.1 and 142.8mm, respectively. The content of total phosphorus, nitrogen and organic matter in the soil of those three fields followed the same order, i.e., lucernelicoricemilkvetch, but the highest contents of available P and N in the soil were found in the licorice field. Based on this study's production, weed biomass percentage and soil fertility measurements, lucerne is the most suitable planting on the Loess Plateau. Moreover, the community characteristics of licorice meadow are similar to natural rangeland, thus, for restoration and improvement of natural rangeland in this area. Planting licorice is economical and easy. The effects of management practice on field productivity is discussed, and it is suggested that increasing input, especially fertilizer input, will be necessary to maintain productive and stable forage legume communities." @default.
