The Relevance of Rest Periods in Rangeland Management for Plant Cover and Species Composition in Tataouine, Tunisia, Spring
In southern Tunisia, rangelands are overexploited because the animal needs highly exceed plant production. For most of the skeletal desert soil, the overall vegetation covering oscillates between 1 and 10%; the perennial ...
The Relevance of Rest Periods in Rangeland Management for Biomass Rehabilitation in Tataouine, Tunisia, Spring 2017
Field visits were carried out during March 2017 and allowed to identify and classify the sites subjected to rest according to the land tenure system and age of the implementation of the technique. During these visits, the ...
The Relevance of Rest Periods in Rangeland Management for Plant Density in Tataouine, Tunisia, Spring 2017
In southern Tunisia, rangelands are overexploited because the animal needs highly exceed plant production. For most of the skeletal desert soil, the overall vegetation covering oscillates between 1 and 10%; the perennial ...
Estimation of shrub canopy cover by digital vegetation charting technique (DVCT), Syria
The shrub fodder component should be measured to avoid underestimation of the carrying capacity of rangelands. In this study, we present a fast, reliable and non-destructive method to estimate canopy vegetation cover to ...
