Study on the Seeding Mixtures of the Restoration and Revegetation Works for making of Environmentally Friendly Road Slopes -Using the Thin-Layer-Soil-Media Hydroseeding System-

This study aimed to address problems and suggest solutions in applying seed mixture design criterior of the slope revegetation works according to guidelines of Slope revegetation design and construction proposed by the Ministry of Construction and Transportation. To do this, the planting thickness was set to be the same 2cm while the composition of seeds was made different, which was planted in artificial slopes and fields. The main results were summarized as follows. In the test, when applying the provisional standards of the plant mixtures proposed by the Ministry of Construction and Transportation, tree seeds and native plants were found poor coverage effect in the early stage in all test plots due to introduced grasses. This was because introduced winter grasses which grew well in the early stage, could grow densely, so it might hamper the growth of other plants. Therefore, it was found desirable that standards for seed mixing should be adjusted down by 10% and the ratio of introduced grasses in the mixture should be lowered to 25% while native plants should increase to 20-25%.
