Managers should evaluate use of forage on a case-by-case basis over a 5-10-year period and carefully consider factors that can influence autecology and synecology of plants (e.g., timing, intensity, frequency of grazing, historical use, kind of animals, current and historical precipitation, trends in vegetation; Holechek et al., 2004).
