Economic implications of maintaining rangeland ecosystem health in a semi-arid savanna

Ecological Economics, 2009
Abstract A simulation model was used to determine the ecological and economic consequences of managing stocking rate on semi-arid savanna rangeland continuously stocked with livestock to achieve the alternate management goals: (1) maintaining current range condition, (2) maximizing profit, or (3) improving range condition over a 30-year time frame ...

Long-term biosolids applications to overgrazed rangelands improve soil health

Overgrazed rangelands can lead to soil degradation, yet long-term land application of organic amendments (i.e., biosolids) may play a pivotal role in improving overgrazed rangelands in terms of soil health. However, the long-term effects on soil health properties in response to Single or Repeated, low to excessive biosolids applications, on semi-arid ...
