Based on meteorological data of Sonid Left Banner in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, a typical steppe pastoral area, this paper analyzed the characteristics of drought occurrence and its impacts on animal husbandry production in the study area. Combined with local actual conditions, drought monitoring and forecasting methods as well as targeted countermeasures were proposed. The results showed that the annual average precipitation in the study area ranged from 150 to 300 mm, with rainfall concentrated from June to August, presenting prominent meteorological drought characteristics. Persistent drought led to degraded grassland growth and reduced grassland productivity. It also caused stunted growth and declined immunity in livestock, triggers forage shortages, and further increases the production cost of animal husbandry. In response to meteorological drought, the study area has established an integrated drought monitoring and forecasting system based on historical data analysis, ground meteorological station observations, and multi-source remote sensing monitoring. The system inverts vegetation, soil and water drought indices to monitor grassland degradation and spatial differentiation of regional drought. A combination of short-term emergency measures and long-term adaptation strategies has been implemented. Specifically, an integrated meteorological information sharing platform has been established to release early warning information to herdsmen through radio, official WeChat accounts and other channels. Expert teams in meteorology, animal husbandry and water conservancy have been organized to carry out drought prevention emergency training. A three-level emergency material reserve warehouse system has been built to realize cross-regional resource coordination. In terms of long-term strategies, high water-use efficiency crops such as drought-resistant corn are widely promoted. Agronomic practices including soil moisture conservation by mulching and drought resistance agent application are popularized. Drought-tolerant forage varieties are introduced to optimize the animal husbandry structure and reduce excessive reliance on natural grasslands. Meanwhile, standardized captive breeding facilities are constructed to develop an integrated planting-breeding-processing industrial chain. These measures have effectively alleviated the operational pressure on herdsmen, reduced drought disaster losses, and improved the regional drought resistance capacity. This study can provide a scientific reference for drought risk management in pastoral areas.
