Rangeland Systems

Rangeland systems refer to large natural landscapes primarily composed of grasses, shrubs, and open spaces used for grazing livestock, wildlife habitat, and ecosystem services. These areas include deserts, grasslands, savannas, and shrublands. They are vital for agricultural production, biodiversity, water filtration, and climate regulation. Managing rangelands involves balancing ecological health with economic use, ensuring that grazing, fire, and plant growth are sustainable. Proper management helps prevent overgrazing, soil erosion, and habitat loss, maintaining the land’s productivity and ecological resilience for future generations.
