Improvement and Application of Key Pasture Theory for the Evaluation of Forage–Livestock Balance in the Seasonal Grazing Regions of China’s Alpine Desert Grasslands

Improvement and Application of Key Pasture Theory for the Evaluation of Forage–Livestock Balance in the Seasonal Grazing Regions of China’s Alpine Desert Grasslands

The calculation of theoretical carrying capacity (TCC) is one of the most fundamental tasks for the evaluation of the forage–livestock balance on grassland pastures. At present, the main methods for calculating TCC are the traditional theory (TT) and key pasture theory (KPT), but they both have obvi...
