ABSTRACT
The Mollisol region of Heilongjiang Province is an important commercial grain production base in
China. The Mollisol region has the characteristics of high fertility, good structure, loose texture, suitable
for farming, and suitable for crop growth. However, due to long-term high intensity, unreasonable
utilization and soil erosion, the arable land in the Mollisol region of Heilongjiang Province has been
severely degraded. The decline of soil microbial diversity and other issues have become increasingly
prominent, posing a direct threat to the sustainable development of agriculture. How to solve Mollisol
layer thinning, fertility declined, structure hardened and ecological problems are the current technical
issues in Heilongjiang Province of China. This work systematically summarizes the problems, such as
the long-term overdraft of land fertility in the Mollisol region of Heilongjiang Province, the decline of
soil organic matter content, and the degradation of ecological functions. This work not only combines
the needs of regional agricultural production in Heilongjiang Province, but also further conducts a case
analysis of the "Longjiang Model", trying to analyze and predict the dynamic change of Mollisol organic
matter content by Gray Forecast Model.
