For further understanding of growth dynamics and reasonable utilization of grassland

an experiment was carried out in shrub-grass vegetation in degradation hilly area of Wufeng Mountain

Ji'nan City of Shandong Province.Above-ground biomass

species diversity

and reasonable use were addressed.Results showed that above-ground biomass of the grassland reached its maximum value in August.Zoysia japonica

Arundinella anomala

Themeda japonica

and Arthraxon hispidus were the dominant grassland species

and the importance values of Zoysia japonica and Arundinella anomala were higher than the other grassland species.Species diversity indices of Pielon

Simpson and Shannon—Wiener were increased with growth time.In 2009

the protective index of gramineae was 151.87 g/m2

and the protective indices of Zoysia japonica

Arundinella anomala

Themeda japonica and Arthraxon hispidus were 76.34

59.95

23.37 and 46.60 g/m2

respectively.
