: I am doing a research paper on whether or not livestock should continue to be able to graze on rangelands. I am trying to show how if managed properly, they can have very positive effects on the rangeland and ecosystems. If anyone has any information or knows of some good literature about this subject, please let me know.
The Kansas Grazingland Water Quality staff has compiled an extensive literature database that includes the livestock grazing effects on rangeland. The database is web searchable and can be found at http://www.oznet.ksu.edu/glwqld/. We hard copies of each article cited and can make them available to you. Let me know if you have any questions.
