TYPING OF FORAGE LAND VEGETATION IN THE WESTERN KAZAKHSTAN REGION USING PHYTOCENOLOGICAL METHODS

Abstract

The article is devoted to the phytocenological typification of vegetation of forage lands in the West Kazakhstan region. The paper considers the main types of vegetation, their ecological characteristics and functional role in maintaining the ecosystem. The methods of collecting and analyzing phytocenological data are described, and the key phytocenoses characteristic of this region are highlighted. The results of the study contribute to a deeper understanding of the biological diversity and sustainability of forage lands, and can also be used to develop recommendations for the efficient use and protection of these natural resources. Analysis of the obtained data will improve pasture management and contribute to the agricultural development of the region. The importance of taking into account the dynamics of vegetation in the context of climate change and anthropogenic impact is emphasized. The presented results can serve as a basis for future research, as well as for optimizing agronomic practices and developing measures to restore degraded lands. The conclusion emphasizes the need for an integrated approach to the study of forage land ecosystems, which includes the interaction of various environmental factors, the impact of livestock and the prospects for sustainable management of natural resources. In addition, special attention is paid to the relevance of preserving local plant species and enhancing biodiversity, which is an important condition for ensuring food security and sustainable development of rural areas.
