Compost amendments up to one inch restore dry rangeland soil health

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rangelands harbor immense diversity and provide ecosystem services across vast swaths of land while supporting rural economies and the food system, but degraded rangelands may require active management to restore diversity and function. We added varying amounts of compost to understand if there are linear or saturating effects on vegetation and soil ...
