Assessment of scenarios for intensifying pasture management and grazing in fragile micro-watersheds of high Andean mountains
In the Andean hillsides of Ecuador, indigenous populations use land mainly for grazing sheep and cattle. Animal response depends exclusively on the quality of forage and the soil’s physical and chemical conditions. The objective of this research was to evaluate two scenarios for intensifying pastur...
