Range ecology -- South Dakota; Experimental rangelands -- South Dakota; Pittman-Robertson Project (S.D.)
Briefly stated, these studies attempt to determine the degree of competition between deer and domestic livestock, annual forage production, annual utilization of browse by deer, and use-factors for key food plants.
Results of this experiment have...

This job, primarily designed to establish use-factors for key browse plants, has been a constant source of frustration during the last seven years, since the normal production of browse even under complete protection has varied from a minus 60...

The important evergreen deer foods, kinnikinnick (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi) and Oregon grape (Odostemon repens) lose production if as little as 25 percent of their total green forage is removed annually. Excessive utilization of Oregon grape only...
