The invention discloses a method for planting alfalfa in 
saline-
alkali soil. The method comprises the following steps: deep application of a base 
fertilizer, a 
sowing process, 
irrigation, field management, a clipping process and greenness returning management. According to the invention, the 
soil structure is improved and the 
salt content of soil is reduced through 
soil preparation and deep application of the 
humic acid organic fertilizer. At the same time, a low-
salinity environment is created in the 
germination period of alfalfa seeds by utilizing a 
drip irrigation mode, so that the seed 
germination and the 
seedling growth are promoted. Winter water for 
irrigation penetrates through a cultivation layer, so that the 
icing caused by water accumulation on the ground is avoided, and topdressing is carried out with the combination of 
irrigation by greenness returning water. In addition, a 
saline-alkaline-resistant alfalfa variety is selected as a recommendation variety, and the planting success rate is further improved. According to the method provided by the invention, the 
organic matter content of soil is increased before the alfalfa is planted, the disadvantages to the alfalfa 
germination and 
seedling growth caused by increased the 
salinity of 
dry soil in spring are overcome through the utilization of the 
drip irrigation method, conditions are created for 
normal growth of the alfalfa in the later stage, and the 
technical support for the production of high-quality alfalfa and the development of 
animal husbandry in 
saline-alkali areas is provided.
