Important grassland habitats in Tram Chim National Park (Dong Thap) are being rehabilitated, facilitating the restoration of these species and especially the Sarus Crane, a rare species of bird threatened. threatening, appearing again and tending to develop.

Currently, only in the A1 area, the main core area of ​​Tram Chim, the area of ​​tuberous grass is about 935 ha, the area of ​​ghost rice is 242 ha, the area with the mixture of grass energy and grass energy is 242 ha, net grass area is 31 ha.

In particular, there are about 3 hectares of Indian Headweeds, this is a species with high alum tolerance. When this grass appeared, grass energy also appeared near; because they both tolerate acidic soil conditions. Restoration of pasture habitats is the result of hydrological management suitable for wetland ecology conducted by Tram Chim National Park in the "Temporary water and fire management" plan .

This plan has been supported by the project "Conservation and sustainable use of Mekong river wetland" with support of USD 100,000, with the participation of many multidisciplinary experts at home and abroad.

The cause of forest fire in indigo national park in recent years has occurred continuously, partly due to the promotion of conservation and sustainable use of wetland ecosystems as a system of special-use forests. Therefore, these grasslands are severely degraded due to high water retention in the National Park throughout the year to prevent fire.

Melaleuca forest is only part of the wetland ecosystem and can regenerate after burning. Such a high water retention year-round is inconsistent with the alternating hydrological regime of the Dong Thap Muoi wetland ecosystem. In fact, it also increases the risk of fire with high intensity, because the accumulation of leaves becomes thick in anaerobic conditions. On the other hand, Melaleuca trees are immersed in the water for a long time, stumped and formed a layer of root roots around the root, creating conditions for fire to climb on the trunk and tops of trees, can kill melaleuca trees.
