Abstract: (4437 Views)
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of some restoration practices including the planting of shrub seedlings, seeding with and without rainfall harvesting on some soil and vegetative characteristics in Chahmary-Behbahan rangelands. A random systematic approach was used to collect vegetation cover data in 60 plots of 1m2 in each site. Soil samples were collected from the two depths of 0-30cm and 30-60cm from soil surface and their physical and chemical properties were analyzed in soil laboratory. The T-test and one way ANOVA were used to analyze the data. According to the results, the sites that seedlings of shrubs were planted had the highest production, canopy percent, and plant density of species with range values of class I and II. The seeding site with no rainfall harvesting had the lowest production of range plants. Soil analysis revealed that soil nitrogen, phosphor, potassium and organic matter contents varies significantly between the treated and control sites.
