Abstract:Sandy shrubs are important tree species to promote the comprehensive management of sandy land in key areas in China. In order to provide references and supports to the development of sandy shrub industry in China, on the basis of summarizing the main technical modes of sandy shrub mechanized production technology, the current status of mechanized planting, harvesting, and processing technology of sandy shrubs was outlined, and the problems and development trends at the present stage were clarified as well. The sandy shrub industry basically formed a planting-harvesting-processing-utilization production mode, covering these links of planting, management, harvesting, processing and utilization. Although there were already some machinery and equipment, certain problems still existed in the current stage, i.e., uneven development of mechanized production links, insufficient machinery and equipment support, low applicability and reliability of mechanical equipment, insufficient research and development of key technologies of sandy shrub production machinery and equipment, poor linkage between process technology and machinery. Establishing complete mechanized technology system for the whole process of sandy shrub production, strengthening the theoretical system of sand-sandy shrub-machinery interaction relationship and other key technology research, and developing the integrated and intelligent sandy shrub production machinery would be the development direction of sandy shrub mechanized production technology in China.
