Influence of grazing exclosure on vegetation biomass and soil quality

Influence of grazing exclosure on vegetation biomass and soil quality

This study investigated the influence of sixteen years exclosure from unmanaged grazing on aboveground vegetation biomass, soil organic matter (SOM), soil aggregation and nitrogen (N) mineralization in arid shrubland of Baluchistan, Pakistan. Sampling was carried out from three sites along the chron...
