Grazing system management of an area. 5. Improvement and cultural practices for management of grassland. 6. Indicators of heavy grazing in an area. 7. Estimation and management of grassland. 8. Vegetation analysis of grassland. 9. Study of different tools/instruments used in livestock management. 10. Study of housing system and requirements in livestock animals. 11. Storage of fodder as hay, silage and leaf meal. 12. Studying plant preference by grazing animals. 13. Identification of feedstuffs and their nutritive value. 14. Study of different types of grassland / rangeland. 15. Determining carbon sequestration potential of grassland. 16. Role of trees for fodder production. Grassland and fodder management is getting immense importance in the current era. The increased human and animal population is causing the over exploitation of natural resources which is leading to the degradation of valuable land resources. Until now, ready reading and field practical manual on grassland/ rangeland are not available for the teachers and students. Therefore, it was utmost important to design the practical material to the end users on the grassland and fodder management. The manual would serve as a reference material for those who are concerned with the grassland and rangeland resource management, the agriculture/forest colleges and universities. There are sixteen practical exercises in this manual. Exercise first deals with the identification of grass species. Second and third exercises are devoted to herbarium preparation and estimation of carrying capacity, respectively. The rest of the exercises deals with grazing systems and their management, cultural practices for grassland improvement, heavy grazing indicators, vegetation analysis, study of different tools/ instruments, housing system for livestock management, preservation of fodder, preferences of livestock for fodder, feedstuffs and their nutritive value, carbon storage potential and fodder trees in relation of grassland and rangeland. This manual will be quite useful for teachers, students and stakeholders engaged in the field agriculture, environmental science and engineering, climate science, policy planning and land use system designing, etc.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Agroforestry is sustainable land use system and an important component of evergreen revolution. It helps world through production and protection services. Agroforestry system has more than two components which makes it complex in nature. Tarai region of India is good for production of agriculture crops and for growing of short rotation fast growing (SRFG) tree species. SRFG tree species were widely grown for meeting the raw material demand of wood based industries. Poplar, Eucalypt, Leucaena and Melia based agroforestry systems of the region were well known for their production and protection functions. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the most important food crop under agroforestry system in North India.The microclimate under agroforestry is somewhat modified due to presence of trees, under such conditions; the growth response of understory wheat crop may be different from sole cropping system.So, the present investigation was carried out at Tarai region of India.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 176 pp. Englisch.
