Biomass requirements from natural pastures for livestock grazing and soil protection in the eastern African highlands
The problem of seasonal shortages of herbage production from natural pastures in the Ethiopian highlands was investigated. This was done by comparing the available biomass amounts on the pastures with biomass amounts required for livestock grazing and for protecting land slope from soil erosion with...
