The second third of the book outlines the major introduced grasses and non-grass plants that have found purchase in the region and provides insight into their cultivation, quality, and the best ways to manage them. The final third presents the reader with contemporary data on poisonous range and pasture plants and offers proven strategies for their control and prevention. Importantly, this book provides a vital overview of the many challenges and opportunities that come with managing pasture and rangelands and offers the reader a wealth of scientific data and informed insight to address these challenges and capture those opportunities.
