    • Holistic versus continuous grazing in Patagonia: A station-scale case study of plant and animal production 

      Oliva, Gabriel Esteban; Ferrante, Daniela; Cepeda, Carla Tamara; Humano, Gervasio; Puig, Silvina (Elsevier, 2021-01)
      We compared animal and vegetation responses of a 13 600-ha area under holistic grazing management (HGM) with a similar area under continuous grazing (CGM) in a Patagonian station. Limitations were a dry 2012 −2016 experimental ...
    • Remotely‐sensed primary productivity shows that domestic and native herbivores combined are overgrazing Patagonia
