Abstract: | The development and use of systems for classifying range conditions was traced back to the researches of Sampson reported in 1919. "Common denominators" of current systems appeared to be; a) recognition of secondary succession toward a climax type, and b) the uise of floristic composition to indicate condition or position of a range in this succession. A review of basic research showed a direct though general relation between forage production and secondary succession. |
