The steep sloped}and of purple hilly area of Sichuan basin account for 15% of total area.In order to utilize the steep sloped-land completely and rationally,the following designed approaches for soil and water conservation of sloped}and were investigated cover straw(CS),collect water with pond and pits(CW-PP),plant straw}locks along contour(PSB) and plant rye}rass(PR G).The results shown that all this practices bear a certain efficacy as expected.Among this alternatives,PRG ranked first in increasing soil water content for the research conditions,and PSB,CS ranked second. From the aspect of preserving the stability of soil moisture, the desired results appeared in CS and CWPP,from which some rainfall-intercepted was discharged during a few days after raining.
