| HORSE RANGES IN ICELAND

| About these pages | These webpages are based on the booklet HORSE RANGES – A method to assess range condition, published in Icelandic in 1997 by the Agricultural Research Institute (ARI) and the Soil Conservation Service (SCS). These pages are provided with permission ofthe authors (Borgthor Magnusson, Asrun Elmarsdottir and Bjorn H. Barkarson) and are intended as an example of the use of rangeland classification techniques as a guide to land rangers and land managers. The concept can be adapted to any rangeland situation.
