Halogeton Grazing Management: Historical Perspective

Journal of Range Management, 2002
Halogeton [Halogeton glomeratus (Bieb.) C. A. Mey], is a fleshy, annual, herbaceous species that was accidentally introduced into the western U.S. during the 20th century. Because it is highly poisonous to sheep (Ovis aries), this rather diminutive herb became the center of attention for biological research on Intermountain rangelands during the 1950s.

Environmental impacts of grazed pastures [PDF]

, 2010
Large nitrogen (N) surplus and return of excreta-N in localised patches at high N rates in intensively grazed pasture systems markedly increases the risk of N losses to waterways and the atmosphere. Here are described the main routes of N input to grazed

The impact of different grazing intensity and management measures on soil organic carbon density in Zhangye grassland

Scientific Reports
Studying the spatial and temporal changes of grassland soil organic carbon (SOC) is helpful in promote the management of regional ecosystem carbon sinks. Grazing is one of the main ways of rational utilization of grassland.

Grazing Demonstration Plots Help Managers Understand Grazing Concepts

Journal of Extension, 2018
Grazing management concepts can be hard for learners to grasp in a classroom setting. A grazing demonstration plot is a useful field tool that Extension professionals can implement to visually illustrate how various grazing regimes affect grass health and yields.

Habitat Associations of Sympatric Violet-Feeding Fritillaries (Euptoieta, Speyeria, Boloria) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in Tallgrass Prairie [PDF]

, 2017
At 106 tallgrass prairies in the midwestern USA, 18,055 individuals of six fritillary species (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) were counted in 552.9 hr and 987.1 kill of transect survey effort from 14 June to 13 September during 1988-96. The relative abundance
