Abstract: In this paper, the agro-ecological characteristics and ameliorating measures of the low-lying land along the Yellow River back have been analysed by interpretation of aerial color infrared image and On-site investigation. The results showed;1. The ecological characteristics of this area Were highly moist and salt-affected. Side permeability of the water of Yellow River and light texture of the soil account for these characteristics. A regression model of the width of the land (Y ) , the height difference between the front and back sides (X1 ) and the distance of the main stream to the embankment(X2)waS formed: Y=0.49X1-0.46X2+0.1 (X1 >0,X2>0).2. The agro-ecological system of "improving the soil with silt and Water from the Yellow River-dry and wet rotation of the farmland" should be the suitable pattern of that area.3. The verious types of land Utilization and the degree of suitability in that district could be analyzed by intepretation of aerial color infrared image and the symbol of its veins combined with the cropping system, types of soil and other related subjects.
