农业化的畜牧生产——一个沙漠化牧业社的案例研究

Husbandry on the model of farming: a case study of a disert husbandry community

长城曾经作为分界线,将畜牧业与农业分开,但是这条界线逐渐被打破,内蒙古逐步形成了农业与畜牧业混合的情况。在人民公社时期,牧民被要求开荒种粮,现在有越来越多的牧民开垦水浇地种植饲料粮,他们停止了走场,实行了草场承包,牧区已经越来越像农区一样经营畜牧业。但是地下水仍然是公共资源,对它的管理和经营是保护与发展一对矛盾中至关重要的因素。

The Great Wall was once a dividing line between husbandry and farming. But with the side-by-side development of farming in Inner Mongolia this demarcation is gone. During the period of the People＇s Commune, the herdsmen were required to to till the waste land and grow crops, and now more and more herdsmen till irrigated land to grow feeders. They stop moving from place to place and practising contracting grassland, gradually taking the shape of fanning. But underground water is till a public resource. Therefore, its management constitutes a key element in the contradiction of protection and development.
