Abstract

On the Ground

  • Loss of grasslands to shrublands continues.

  • Demand for livestock products is expected to continue to grow.

  • Increased demand for red meat may stimulate rangeland livestock production.

  • Methods for increasing shrub use are needed to meet increasing forage demands.
