Monitoring Animal Behaviour and Environmental Interactions Using Wireless Sensor Networks, GPS Collars and Satellite Remote Sensing (2009, background): “Overgrazing areas of the landscape by herbivores can reduce plant diversity and ground cover, with associated risks of increased erosion [19,20].”
Effects of livestock breed and grazing intensity on biodiversity and production in grazing systems. 1. Nutritive value of herbage and livestock performance (2007, background): “Current knowledge suggests that compatibility between biodiversity and production is most likely to be achieved using low-input systems employing grazing rather than cutting and forage conservation ( Dorrough et al., 2004; Isselstein et al., 2005).”
Soil phosphorus and tree cover modify the effects of livestock grazing on plant species richness in Australian grassy woodland (2006, background): “Throughout the study area as little as 3% tree cover persists in areas managed for livestock production although approximately 40% has not been cultivated and potentially supports native pastures (Dorrough et al., 2004b; Dorrough and Moxham, 2005).”
