Abstract/Description: | Grazing lands are vital for sustainability of livestock based economy of arid region. State of these grazing lands varies due to topographic and climatic situations, so location specific impact assessment is essential. The productivity of these existing grazing lands can be increased by adopting available technologies and replacing low yielding annual grasses with high yielding nutritive adapted perennial grasses. In degraded grazing lands renovation or rehabilitation programme, highly drought tolerant perennial grasses, shrubs, and some succulents should be used which characterize the desert ecosystem. In this paper, an attempt has been made to suggest the ways to manage the grazing lands and augment the fodder availability for drought mitigation in the hot arid region. |
