Case Study: Malpai Borderlands
I would have scientists assess the carrying capacity of the public grasslands.
We would need to inform the owners of the ranches that they need to rotate grazing from field to field before the fields become unusable. This would help conserve the grass cover and soil integrity. 2 Grass banking is a technique where cattle are allowed to graze on portions of land while others are allowed to recover. I would suggest the technique that they used in the Malpai Borderlands where overgrazing has trampled the soil and scattered tree seeds where the grasses had dominated. I would suggest working with government agencies, environmentalists, and scientists to help with bringing back the grazing land. The 500,000 acres of land could be broken up into sections
