| Abstract: | A long standing question in range management concerns the relative importance of the stocking rate versus the length of time during which animals graze a particular rangeland. The authors address this question by analyzing the problem faced by a private rancher who wishes to minimize the long run expected net unit cost (LRENC) from range operations by choosing either the the stocking rate or the lenght of time during which his animals graze his rangeland. |
