Regulating strategies to sustainable development of plantation ecosystems

Abstract

Abstract: Based on field and laboratiory experiments,the effect of different management approaches on site fertility and sustainability of plantation ecosystems such as Cunninghamia lanceolata and Pinus massoniana is analysed.The results show that some biopathways such as intercropping with leguminous grass,silviculture of mixed plantations, introducing broadleaved tree species after thinning,and some engineering measures such as application of fertilizers and changing methods of site preparation can be helpful to the recovery of soil fertility and the increase of productivity of pure conifer forest.

Key words: Plantation ecosystem, Sustainable development, Regulating strategies, Productivity, understory removal experiment, plant-plant interaction, understory vegetation, forest management
