ABSTRACT: In recent years, grassland degradation has become one of China’s most
critical environmental problems due to the interaction of natural environmental
factors and human causes. Based on the systematic analysis of the spatial
characteristics of grassland degradation and the current research status of
environmental drivers, this paper summarizes and summarizes the research
methods on the impact of grassland degradation on natural ecological service
function and social and economic value to understand further the natural
ecological service function of grassland degradation and its impact on social
and economic benefits. The results show that since the function of grassland
ecosystem service is much larger than the biomass value it provides, we should
focus on the effective management of grassland from the design concept of
ecological service function to achieve the sustainable development of
grassland. We should do an excellent job in the comprehensive application of
various ecosystems and service value evaluation methods in the future.
