Reseeding - SS2 Agriculture Lesson Note

Reseeding involves introducing desirable plant species into rangeland areas where they may be lacking or have been depleted due to overgrazing or environmental factors.

 

How it work:

Native or adapted plant species are selected for reseeding.

Seeds can be broadcast or drilled into the soil, often during the appropriate season.

This practice helps restore native vegetation, improve forage quality, and increase biodiversity.

In summary, these methods of rangeland improvement, including controlled stocking, rotational grazing, the use of fertilizers, and reseeding, aim to promote sustainable land management, enhance forage quality, and maintain the ecological balance of rangeland ecosystems. Properly implementing these methods can contribute to healthier rangelands and more productive livestock operations.
