Technological flow The main points of the technology Time (season or month) 1. Specific technical measures for artificial afforestation and engineered sand fixation. In mobile sandy areas it is necessary to set up sand barriers followed by afforestation. Spring, rainy season 2. Land preparation : trenching plough mechanical land preparation. trenching plough mechanical land preparation in the predetermined row spacing, its specification is trenching plough with upper mouth width 80cm, furrow depth 40~50cm, and bottom width 25-30cm. Afforestation with land preparation. Forestation of mobile sandy areas without land preparation. Rainy season 3. Density, configuration, planting pit specifics: Afforestation density: 2m × 4m, or 3m × 4m. Afforestation configuration: stripes with a width of 6-10m. Planting pit specifications: 30m × 30cm × 40cm. Sand barriers are necessary for afforestation in mobile sandy areas. Rainy season 4. Seedling requirements: container seedlings of 50-80cm height with complete crowns. Healthy seedlings with full top buds. Rainy season 5. Planting: ditch preparation with trenching plough and dig planting pits, with digging pits as planting. Plant while digging pits. Water the nutrient cups 3-4 d before planting, transport them to the planting site, then remove the container bags and carefully place the seedlings in the planting pit, keeping the soil pile intact. Straighten the seedlings, backfill with wet soil to the root neck and tread firmly. Rainy season 6. Nurture management: grazing ban, nurturing, grass pruning in forests After forestry, young growth should be fully prohibited, fencing or guarded. Unqualified plantations should be replanted at any time until they are qualified. It is advisable to use healthy seedlings of the same age as the original planting for replanting. No grazing for 3-5 years 7. Others 表 6
