英文摘要Due to long-term human activities, grassland ecosystems have been severely damaged. Toprotect grassland ecosystems, the prohibited grazing policy (PGP), a grassland ecologicalprotection policy, was instituted for Chinese grasslands in 2002. However, it is unknownwhether farmers have effectively adapted to the PGP. The adaptability of farmers to thispolicy has directly influenced the effective implementation of the policy and the sustainable development of the ecosystem. Previous research on adaptability has not focused onthe adaptation to political change. This article uses a case study in Northwest China toinvestigate the adaptability of farmers to the policy. First, we study the restoration statusof ecosystems. In addition, this paper studies the perceptions regarding farmers' adaptability to the policy and explores the adaptation strategies of different types of farmers. Finally, this paper discusses the main factors that influence farmers' choice of adaptationstrategies. The implementation of the PGP has achieved remarkable ecological benefits. Farmers of different types had different adaptation perceptions, and their choices of adaptation strategies also varied. In addition to the farmers' perception of the policy, the mainfactors that influenced farmers' adaptation strategies also included livelihood capital.
