Productivity of Permanent Pastures Located at Different Altitudes

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
This work studies the yielding and grazing capacity of some permanent pastures located in Banat’s Mountains, at 236 – 1300 m altitude. The mean results achieved showed that the yield difference between the minimal altitude level (236 m) and the maximal ...

Improving carbon sequestration estimation through accounting carbon stored in grassland soil

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
Based on international guidelines, the elaboration of national carbon (C) budgets in many countries has tended to set aside the capacity of grazing lands to sequester C as soil organic carbon (SOC).

Effects of grazing pressure on plant species composition and water presence on bofedales in the Andes mountain range of Bolivia [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2018
Bofedales are high-Andean peatland plant communities with high capacity for water retention, which are regarded as oases of biodiversity. These areas have great social and economic value for livestock grazing, which plays an important role in their ...

High-resolution assessment of the carrying capacity and utilization intensity in mountain rangelands with remote sensing and field data

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Dry rangelands provide resources for half of the world's livestock, but degradation due to overgrazing is a major threat to system sustainability. Existing carrying capacity assessments are limited by low spatiotemporal resolution and high generalization,

Changes in Vegetation and Grazing Capacity following Honey Mesquite Control [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Range Management, 1982
Honey mesquite kill and suppression, vegetation response, and changes in grazing use and capacity were evaluated following brush control in north-central Texas. Tree grubbing was most effective for eliminating honey mesquite, but because of soil and plant damage the treatment did not increase grazing capacity or improve range condition compared to ...

Differences in the photosynthetic and physiological responses of Leymus chinensis to different levels of grazing intensity

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Grazing is an important land use in northern China. In general, different grazing intensities had a different impact on the morphological and physiological traits of plants, and especially their photosynthetic capacity.
