Timothy and timothy mixtures as a pasture crop [PDF]
, 2006 Despite the relatively low tolerance against grazing and peaked DM production, timothy can be used effiently for grazing, especially in mixtures with meadow fescue. The growth processes lead to specific management options, e.g.

Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps
Ecography, EarlyView.Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Suitability of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) as a forage crop in the Mediterranean area [PDF]
, 2017 In Mediterranean rainfed cropping systems, drought-resistant crops can increase yield and availability of forage during the summer period. In North America, switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has been used for decades as pasture and fodder.

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs
Ecography, EarlyView.Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Deforestation and its social impacts are an enduring challenge in agrarian frontiers, especially in the tropics. Fueled by global demand for commodities, this process is mediated by ideas, concepts, meanings, and policies that uphold socioenvironmental degradation. A key and understudied—arena in which this mediation occurs is the sub‐national
