Abstract

Abstract: In order to provide a theoretical basis for the utilization of saline soil, we used controlled salinization to analyze the feasibility of improving saline soil utilization using four different salt-tolerant forage grasses (alfalfa, Sudan grass, wild forage sorghum and Mexico corn) in southern Xinjiang. The results show that maize had significantly better yield performance on saline soil (P<0.05), followed by alfalfa which also produced good yields with good nutritive value and with the advantages of biological nitrogen fixation and high economic value, making it the most appropriate plant species for saline soil in southern Xinjiang. The use of both maize and alfalfa with selective use of sweet sorghum and Sudan grass can effectively reduce the limitation of saline soil in southern Xinjiang.
