Louhaichi, Mounir; Ouled Belgacem, Azaiez; Abdelkader, Mohamed; Ben Salem, Farah, 2017, "The Relevance of Rest Periods in Rangeland Management for Plant Density in Tataouine, Tunisia, Spring 2017", https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11766.1/FK2/X9IYIU, MELDATA, V7
In southern Tunisia, rangelands are overexploited because the animal needs highly exceed plant production. For most of the skeletal desert soil, the overall vegetation covering oscillates between 1 and 10%; the perennial aerial biomass is lower than 100 kg of dry matter (DM)/ha/y... |
