Prescribed fire effects on resource selection by cattle in mesic sagebrush steppe. Part 2: Mid-summer grazing

Creator:

Clark, Patrick E., Lee, Jaechou, Ko, Kyungduk, Nielson, Ryan M., Johnson, Douglas E., Ganskopp, David C., Pierson, Fredrick B., and Hardegree, Stuart P.

Abstract:

Prescribed fire can release herbaceous forages from woody plant competition thus promoting increased forage plant production, vigor, and accessibility. Prescribe fire also consumes standing litter thereby improving forage quality and palatability. Consequently, prescribed fire is commonly considered an effective tool for manipulating livestock distribution on rangelands. Efficacy of this tool...

Prescribed fire effects on resource selection by cattle in mesic sagebrush steppe. Part 1: Spring grazing

Creator:

Clark, Patrick E., Lee, Jaechoul, Ko, Kyungduk, Nielson, Ryan M., Johnson, Douglas E., Ganskopp, David C., Chigbrow, Joe, Pierson, Fredrick B., and Hardegree, Stuart P.

Abstract:

Prescribed fire is commonly applied world-wide as a tool for enhancing habitats and altering resource-selection patterns of grazing animals. A scientific basis for this practice has been established in some ecosystems but its efficacy has not been rigorously evaluated on mesic sagebrush steppe. Beginning in 2003, resource-selection patterns of beef...
