Title: Comparative infiltration rates and sediment production on fertilized and grazed blue grama rangeland: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: M. K. Wood, G. B. Donart, and M. Weltz; Date: 1986; Summary: Wood et al. measure infiltration and sediment production under two grazing techniques: 1, by doubling the stocking rate on rangeland fertilized by nitrogen, and 2) conventional stocking on unfertilized rangeland in Lincoln County, New Mexico. Infiltration rate and sediment yield, using an infiltrometer to simulate rainfall, along with biomass, foliar cover, surface roughness, and soil bulk density were measured on three unfertilized pastures, stocked at 2.5 ha/AU and three fertilized pastures, stocked at 1.2 ha/AU. Although there was a large amount of variability from year to year, the overa ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article
