Abstract:

This study utilized meteorological data and soybean growth period data from 1992 to 2022 to construct a climate suitability model. Employing methods such as linear trend analysis, natural break point method, and inverse distance weighting interpolation, the temporal and spatial variations in soybean planting climate suitability were analyzed. Additionally, a zoning study of suitable areas for soybean planting was conducted. The results indicated that under the background of climate change, the overall comprehensive climate suitability for soybean planting in Hulunbuir region showed a fluctuating upward trend with a slight decline in the later period. Among them, the temperature and precipitation suitability showed a fluctuating upward trend, while the sunshine suitability showed a fluctuating upward trend in the early period and a fluctuating downward trend in the later period. Spatially, the distribution of light, temperature, water and comprehensive suitability was significantly different. The high-value area of comprehensive suitability was located in the east, followed by the west, and the central area had the lowest comprehensive suitability. The temperature suitability decreased from the east and west sides to the middle. The precipitation suitability decreased from east to west. The sunshine suitability showed an opposite spatial distribution trend to the precipitation suitability, increasing from east to west. Overall, the southeastern part of Hulunbuir City had relatively suitable climate conditions for soybean planting, mainly including most of Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner, Arong County, the eastern part of Zhalantun City, and the southeastern part of Oroqen Autonomous Banner.
