Abstract

This paper will report the results of a study commenced in 1935, at the Desert Experimental Range, Pine Valley, Millard County, Utah, to determine the relative effects of various grazing treatments upon the plant members of the shadscale [Atriplex confertifolia (Torr. And Frem.) S. Wats.] - winterfat [Eurotia lanata (Pursh) Moq.] plant association. Results of this study indicate that distinct vegetational changes have occurred within that plant association during twenty-three years of controlled grazing by sheep.
