Integrating production functions of timber, forage, and cattle to achieve sustainable resource management.

In the Peace Forest District (PFD) of British Columbia (BC), Canada, approximately 40 percent of forest tenures contain overlapping licenses to graze under the Range Act on Crown range in broadleaf and mixedwood forest types. Resource conflict, over land usage, will increase because of more utilizat...

Geographical Information System (GIS) analysis and ground-truthing were done on three PFD community pastures. Two areas were surveyed during the 2002 - 2005 grazing seasons while the third was surveyed in 2004 and 2005.
