Effect of grazing on soil-water content in semiarid rangelands of southeast Idaho

This papers shows that soils under a grazing method called “simulated holistic planned grazing” have the highest percent volumetric-water content of soils tested under three different grazing methodologies that also included “rest-rotation”, and “total rest”. Although this study was a simulation, it demonstrates the potential for soils managed with Holistic Planned Grazing to increase their water-holding capacity.
