【Objective】 In order to solve the problem of grassland quality degradation caused by the large-scale reproduction of broad-leaved grasses in the alpine grassland of Sangko grassland in Gannan Prefecture.【Method】 This experiment took Elymus nutans as the research object. The effects of different concentrations of broad-leaved grass inhibitors (0,0. 9,1. 5,2. 1 kg/hm2 ) and different nitrogen addition levels (0,75,150,225 kg/hm2 ) were used to study the nutritional quality of the dominant grass in Gannan alpine grassland.【Result】 The nutritional quality of Elymus nutans after spraying inhibitor was significantly higher than that of the control (P<0. 05). The contents of crude protein (CP),calcium (CA),phosphorus (P) and ether extract (EE) increased by 2. 18%,9. 23%,9. 52% and 8. 66% while the contents of neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and crude ash (Ash) decreased by 3. 31% and 14. 21% compared with the control at higher spraying concentration (2. 1 kg/hm2 ),respectively. Acid detergent fiber (ADF) at 1. 5 kg/hm2 significantly decreased by 5. 83 compared to the control. The quality of Elymus nutans in nitro- gen application treatments was significantly higher than that of the control (P<0. 05). The contents of CP,CA,P and EE in Elymus nutans were higher than those in the control at a higher nitrogen application level (225 kg/hm2 ), which increased by 27. 94%,35. 09%,14. 29% and 11. 79%,respectively. However NDF and ADF were signifi- cantly lower than control by 6. 45% and 12. 55%,respectively,and which had no significant effect on the content of Ash. There were significant interactions between inhibitors and nitrogen application. Under the concentration of 2. 1 kg/hm2 inhibitors and 225 kg/hm2 nitrogen application levels,the contents of CP,CA,P and EE in Elymus nutans were higher while NDF and ash were lower than other treatment combinations.【Conclusion】 The results are of great significance to improve the quality and efficiency of alpine grassland and the sustainable development of animal hus- bandry.
