Objective of this research was to evaluate and select local ecotypes and imported varieties of grasses and legumes resistant to drought and cold and suitable for the introduction into degraded rangeland and\/or for the production of forage.
\nThe following characteristicshave been measured or scored: Field germination; tillering; summer survive; spring regrowth; winter survive; green and hay yield;seed yield;<\/p>\n

A\/ Forest steppe zone;<\/u><\/strong>
\nSince 2006, field experiment was conducted in Bornuur soum, Tuv province, that is includes the western part of the\u00a0Khentii Mountains<\/a>. Bornuur is located in central arable region of Mongolia.
\nBy climate condition\u00a0 Bornuur included to cold region, the average\u00a0 precipitation for growing season is 160-235 mm and air temperature is 15o<\/sup>C. The growing period is continuing at 90-120 days. Coldest time of year is January (-20o<\/sup>C) and warmest is July (15-20o<\/sup>C). 1st<\/sup>\u00a0frost of year observed from end of August to start of September and last – from end of May to beginning of June.
\nIn territory of Bornuur, that is includes to the Mongolian-Dahurian mountain forest steppe plant-geography region, distributing\u00a0 mountain steppe vegetation associations.
\nOut of\u00a0 65 samples of 45 varieties of 31 species (7 species of legumes and 24 species of grasses) the 33 samples of 12 species (3 species of legumes and 9 species of grasses) were overwintered in 2009 in their life and 41.9% of\u00a0 them were native. From legumes the varieties \u201cBurgaltai\u201d (native) and \u201cNutag belcheer\u00a0 1\u201d (IM) of\u00a0Medicago varia<\/em>\u00a0and from grasses\u00a0Stipa sibirica<\/em>\u00a0(native),\u00a0Psathyrostachys juncea<\/em>\u00a0(native),\u00a0Elymus dahuricus<\/em>\u00a0(IM) and\u00a0Agropyron mongolicum<\/em>\u00a0(IM) have been best species by their winter survive, hay and seed yield and other characteristics. The\u00a0Astragalus adsurgens<\/em>\u00a0from Inner Mongolia engaging the interest by highest hay yield and protein content although did not established seed yield.<\/p>\n

B\/ Steppe zone;<\/u><\/strong>
\nDuring the 2004-2008 in Turgen (28 km from Ulaanbaatar) was conducted field experiments. Turgen located in southern part of Khentii mountains, includes to the forest steppe zone and Mongolian-Dahurian mountain forest steppe plant-geography region, \u00a0but, depending from climate changes last years dried.
\nBy climate condition Turgen includes to the cold region, the average\u00a0 precipitation for vegetation period (May to August) is 194.4\u00a0 mm and air temperature is 13.9o<\/sup>C. Coldest time of year is January (-24.8o<\/sup>C) and warmest is July (19.9o<\/sup>C). 1st<\/sup>\u00a0frost of year observed from mid of August and last – from beginning of June.
\nIn Turgen the 70 samples of 34 species planted in non irrigated condition in 2004-2008, the 11 samples of \u00a07 species established and survived until 2008.\u00a0 All other samples failed to establish or did not survive.
\nIn steppe zone selected the\u00a0Agropyron mongolicum<\/em>\u00a0from Inner Mongolia and\u00a0 native\u00a0Stipa sibirica<\/em>\u00a0 have a good summer and winter survival, moreover, these grasses have a possibility to give biomass & seed yield in dry condition of steppe zone.
\nThe\u00a0Ceratoides arborescens<\/em>\u00a0from Inner Mongolia selected by one of important plant in steppe zone, have a good summer & winter survival and high biomass yield, but impossible to establish seed yield.
\nIn addition, the\u00a0Elymus dahuricus<\/em>\u00a0(IM),\u00a0Psathyrostachys juncea<\/em>\u00a0(IM & USA),\u00a0Agropyron cristatim<\/em>\u00a0(native) and\u00a0Agropyron repens<\/em>\u00a0(RUS) growing in steppe zone, but impossible to produce biomass and seed yields.
\nOther samples, especially legumes,\u00a0<\/strong>have not possibility to survive in dry steppe of Mongolia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
