dc.description.abstract |
The study was conducted in Kadugli locality, South Kordofan state, during 2009-2011. The objective of the study was to make comparison between different range types. The rangelands were divided into four range types according to their soil types by using Global Positioning System (GPS). Parker loop method was used to determine the ground cover along transects of 100m length. A quadrate of 1m² sizes was used to determine density, frequency, range productivity and carrying capacity. The results obtained explained that rocky and clay soil range sites were the best rangelands concerning plant cover, biomass production and carrying capacity. The other two types of soils, sandy and gardoud soils rangelands were found poor for the same parameters. Species diversity was found poor in clay soil than the other types of soils. |
