Body
Computer simulations of pasture production were used to estimate safe carrying capacities for a range of land systems found in south west Queensland. Simulation enabled a quantitative determination of carrying capacity as opposed to the traditional qualitative approach used by land administrators in the past. The need to adjust carrying capacities is required for long term stability of the region. Computer simulation offers one approach to determining safe carrying capacities.
