Abstract: To promote the large-scale and standardize planting of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge. var. mongholicus (Bge.) Hsiao, and improve the yield and quality of Astragalus Radix, based on the research results and long-term accumulated experience of artificial planting, we summarized the development history and the suitable planting area of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge. var. mongholicus (Bge.), and introduced the technologies of artificial planting including seed treatment, land selection, soil preparation, sowing and seedling, transplanting, irrigation and fertilization, pest control, harvesting and processing. At the same time, imitation techniques of wild cultivation and seed quality standards were summarized systematically. We also pointed out the problems in artificial planting of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge. var. mongholicus (Bge.), such as lacking standardized breeding system, uneven levels of planting technology, small planting scale, and low level of mechanization, and suggested that collection and innovation germplasm resources should be accelerated and the problems restricting the development of artificial planting should be solved for the industrial development of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge. var. mongholicus (Bge.).
