Body
Current recommended strategies to cope with climate variability are not widely adopted, due partly to the perception that sustainable strategies are uneconomic. In this paper we provide preliminary data from a long -term study suggesting that sustainable strategies, such as light stocking, deliver significant benefits to both resource condition and the economic performance of grazing enterprises.
