Isbn: 9781390319019 - managing northern great plains cattle ranges to minimize effects of drought (classic reprint) (1 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the management of Northern Great Plains cattle ranges during droughts. By analysing rainfall patterns, vegetation trends, and cattle production over four years, including two severe drought years, the author illustrates the impact of these conditions on the region's ecosystems and economy. The author argues that carefully planned range management strategies, such as conservative stocking, supplemental feeding, and seasonal use, can mitigate the harmful effects of drought. They demonstrate how these practices not only reduce financial losses but also protect the long-term health of the range and its livestock. By highlighting the importance of proactive planning and adaptive management, this book provides valuable insights for ranchers, policymakers, and anyone concerned with the sustainability of grazing lands in semi-arid regions.
