Biomass and grazing potential of the <em>Stipa</em> loess steppes in Ningxia (northern China) in relation to grazing intensity
The mere amount of biomass is not a suitable measuring unit for the economic value of a plant community, because not all species are equally appreciated by cattle and sheep and some are even unpalatable. That is why we summarised palatability and appreciation to a feeding value. Together with the bi...
