Stoddart and Smith1 defined range management as ".. .the science and art of planning and directing range use..." (p. 2). Over the past 100 years, the art and science of grazing management have sometimes taken divergent paths. Early observations that

We used simple ecological sustainability simulator (SESS) [Diaz-Solis, H., Kothmann, M.M., Hamilton, W.T., Grant, W.E., 2003. A simple ecological sustainability simulator (SESS) for stocking rate management on semi-arid grazinglands. Agric. Syst. 76,

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 co

In the southern Great Plains of North America, fire exclusion has contributed to many rangelands converting from native grassland to woody shrublands dominated by mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa Torr.) and cactus (Opuntia spp.), threatening ecosystem h

We present a simple simulation model as an aid to conventional expensive field experimentation and as a decision support system tool for animal production in irrigated pastures within semi-arid grazinglands. We also demonstrate and discuss the integr

Adoption of effective brush management methods is critical to achieving many rangeland management objectives. However, landowners have often been reluctant to adopt new practices. In April 2000, a questionnaire was mailed to the 1058 landowners in 48

We constructed a simple simulation model (SESS) of the dynamics of forage growth and standing crop and cattle production to evaluate the ecological sustainability of management alternatives for extensive cow-calf production systems in northeastern Me

The objectives of this study were to simulate diet selection by sheep grazing on rangelands and to explore how changes in forage harvestability of different forage pools may affect diet selection. This was done by calibrating linked forage dynamics,
