Integrating land sharing and sparing paradigms in grassland ecology: A perspective on balancing livestock production and biodiversity

Grassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 389-395, December 2025.
This study explores how dispersed grazing (grassland sharing) enhances biodiversity and ecosystem health compared to concentrated grazing (grassland sparing) in Inner Mongolia's grasslands, balancing livestock production with conservation. Abstract The increasing global demand for livestock products (meat, milk, and wool) drives overgrazing, leading to

Human Health, Ecosystem Quality, and Resource Scarcity Burdens Inflicted by Livestock Production Across Chinese Regions

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Surge in global population and shift toward animal‐based diets have accelerated expansion of livestock production, posing various environmental challenges. It requires inventorying localized, activity‐specific, and indicator‐extended multidimensional eco‐environmental burdens and revealing their transfers within interregional trade to inform ...
