Title: Effect of forty-four years of grazing on fescue grassland soils: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: J. F. Dormaar, and W. D. Willms; Date: 1998; Summary: A grazing study was initiated in the foothills of southwestern Alberta on the rough fescue (Festuca capestris) grasslands in 1949 comparing various grazing intensities. In 1992, soil and root samples were taken in April, May, June, and October in paddocks with light grazing, heavy grazing, severe grazing, and no grazing. Differences in the heavy and very heavy grazing intensities over the light and none grazing intensities include reduction in the Ah horizon depth, increased bulk density, higher pH, and the C/N ratio decreased. Treatment effects on most soil parameters ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article

Title: Impacts of rotational grazing on mixed prairie soils and vegetation: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: J. F. Dormaar, B. W. Adams, and W. D. Willms; Date: 1997; Summary: In this study, Dormaar et al. compared the impact of a rotation grazing system on the soil and vegetation of a Stipa-Bouteloua-Agropyron community in the mixed prairie ecoregion to ungrazed exclosures. At a low stocking rate, grazing had no effect on the vegetation but did alter soil quality. Grazing pressure was so light in the rotational grazing treatment that recovery of productivity, as measured by standing crop and litter, was not significantly different from the ungrazed treatment. Grazed areas had less total C, total N, a ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article
