Grasslands created opportunities.

Management of the grasslands

The grasslands were sweeping away.

Forests and grasslands are green, and deserts light brown.

The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.

The vast grasslands of Patagonia are turning to desert as you see here.

Grasslands (meadows) take a relatively small area on the slopes and crests of ridges.

Migrating eastward, following the grasslands, because that's what they were adapted to live on.

like Agent Orange over many areas to defoliate land, trees, grasslands, and other areas.

For millions of years, on the grasslands of Africa, women commuted to work to gather their vegetables.

Land abandonment or reduced grazing, on the other hand, affects more semi natural areas, especially species rich grasslands.

It lives in open country, from semi desert scrubland to grasslands in Angola, Botswana, South Africa, Namibia, and Zimbabwe.

Flora Because of low rainfall, the steppe has few trees, and consists of mostly grasslands and large, sandy areas.

This was an animal that basically kept the forest mixed with grasslands across the entire Europe and Asian continent, from Spain to Korea.

And we are burning in Africa, every single year, more than one billion hectares of grasslands, and almost nobody is talking about it.

Let the Groove Get In contains a sample from the recording Alhamdulillahi from the album Explorer Series Africa Burkina Faso Rhythms of the Grasslands .

The WC is the engine of the grasslands without which, there would be no nitrogen for the ERG which pro duces little of its own.

Get caught up in the vast grasslands of the African safari during the summer tours right through the freely grazing herds of zebra and antelope.

The transformation of grasslands into deserts due to deforestation, encroachment into forests for subsistence farming, overgrazing, and loss of biodiversity and soil threaten the entire continent.

The oceans, forests, grasslands, and all the places called home by the millions of other species sharing our planet are a part of our lives too.

The grasslands' perenniality is closely linked at the same time to the climate, the species of forage present and the method of grassland farming (explained below).

However, abandoned land, undergrazing and lack of capital to improve farm infrastructure also resulted in shrub encroachment on flower rich grasslands and a consequent loss in biodiversity.

However, the silage must be made at the earliest moment in order to limit competition between the future grasslands and the plant which plays the role of providing shelter, to allow the PRG WC to become firmly rooted before the summer drought (a drought after the silage is cut can compromise the future grasslands), and to ensure adequate development before the winter.

He used to collect trifoliate like herbs called Musakani in the local Tharu language from the grasslands, and cook them in mustard oil over a cow dung cake fire.

The grasslands at that time this was during the last ice age stretched basically from Germany all the way over to Korea, and the entire continent was open to them.

Stocking density the stocking density is the number of animals herded in a single area unit (generally one hectare) grasslands pastoral spaces whose resources are used at a given moment.

The appearance of mountains in the western United States during the Miocene and Pliocene epochs, a period of some 25 million years, created a continental climate favorable to the evolution of grasslands.

Now you're told over and over, repeatedly, that desertification is only occurring in arid and semi arid areas of the world, and that tall grasslands like this one in high rainfall are of no consequence.

People who would have specialized in killing the animals, hunting the animals on those meat locker savannahs, moving up, following the grasslands into the Middle East around 45,000 years ago, during one of the rare wet phases in the Sahara.

And, indeed, once again we're moving forward to the kind of sexual expression that we probably saw on the grasslands of Africa a million years ago, because this is the kind of sexual expression that we see in hunting and gathering societies today.

But if you do not look at grasslands but look down into them, you find that most of the soil in that grassland that you've just seen is bare and covered with a crust of algae, leading to increased runoff and evaporation.

And, indeed, once again we're moving forward to the kind of sexual expression that we probably saw on the grasslands of Africa a million years ago, because this is the kind of sexual expression that we see in hunting and gathering societies today.

Incentive payments may be provided for up to three years to encourage producers to carry out management practices they may not otherwise adopt without the incentive Grassland Reserve Programme (GRP) it aims to protect and restore grasslands in order to reduce soil erosion and protect biodiversity.

And you need the local people for that because these grasslands, once they start burning ... It goes through it like a windstorm and you lose again the last bit of ash and nutrients to the first rainfall going to the sea killing off the coral reefs there.
