Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cattle Grazing in Longleaf Pine Forests of South Mississippi During the past 40 years, there has been a gradual improvement in cattle breeding and management on many farms located on the better soils of the area. These farms have cultivated fields suitable for limited production of hay, and pasture for winter feeding and grazing. But some 70 percent of the area is still timberland, and forest range thus remains an important source of forage.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) is major forest constituent of the Southern Coastal Plains of the United States. Ecologically, a virgin longleaf pine forests supports increased species richness. Since the 1800s, longleaf pine forests have been exploited as a massive source of commercial products (e.g., lumber, pulp, and naval stores). A decrease in species richness has been recorded following this vast decrease in longleaf pine presence. Rebuilding the longleaf pine ecosystem is essential for restoring species richness and maintaining the ecological health of many Costal Plains habitats. Presently, the most popular restoration and management method utilized is prescribed burning. Prescribed burnings allow small, controlled fires to safely mimic the effects of naturally occurring wildfires. More recently, interest in the use of prescribed burning in the longleaf pine forests has increased because of the potential applications for reducing forests floor fuel loads and increasing species richness. A lesser-known practice of restoration is the implementation of grazing by cattle populations. Previous studies have shown an increase in species richness and a decrease in litter-cover when sites were introduced to grazing. Little research studying the interactions between grazing and prescribed burning has been conducted, however. We studied the effects of prescribed burns and grazing at the Longleaf Preserve, located in the Lake Thoreau Environmental Research Center (LTEC) in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. A series of treatment sites were constructed to determine the influence of grazing by pineywoods cattle and prescribed burns on plant diversity and physiognomy of the forest floor. These sites were subjected to four different treatments in an attempt to replicate current environmental conditions. Fuel loads (i.e., available material for burning) were assessed by collecting data on fine and course litter (e.g., fallen leaves, twigs, branches), as well as, understory plant species richness. The litter samples were collected, dried, and placed on a scale to determine weight. The plant species within each sample were then separated based on morphology. The preliminary results indicate that combining pineywoods cattle grazing with a prescribed burning regimen is an effective means of decreasing leaf-litter cover and increasing species richness on the forest floor. --Page iv.

This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecological Restoration and Management of Longleaf Pine Forests is a timely synthesis of the current understanding of the natural dynamics and processes in longleaf pine ecosystems. This book beautifully illustrates how incorporation of basic ecosystem knowledge and an understanding of socioeconomic realities shed new light on established paradigms and their application for restoration and management. Unique for its holistic ecological focus, rather than a more traditional silvicultural approach, the book highlights the importance of multi-faceted actions that robustly integrate forest and wildlife conservation at landscape scales, and merge ecological with socioeconomic objectives for effective conservation of the longleaf pine ecosystem.
