This is a startling understanding. What becomes important is mob grazing which knocks down all the vegetation, distributes seeds and of course feeds the mob. What comes after is a powerful rebound of vegetation.
Needless to say, the central problem quickly become fences. Technology has now developed excellent solutions to all this.
Operators are experiencing a large increase in throughput along with a robust grazing range. Prior practice had actually served to weaken these ranges.
This whole system needs to be applied to the Buffalo Commons in particular as the access to ground water is disappearing. .

Can sheep save the planet? Yes - says Allan Savory!
"Desertification is a fancy word for land that is turning to desert," states Allan Savory in his quiet but inspirational form. And it's happening to about two-thirds of the world's grasslands, accelerating climate change and causing traditional grazing societies to descend into social chaos. Savory has devoted his life to stopping it. He now believes, and his work so far shows, that a surprising factor can protect grasslands and even reclaim degraded land that was once desert. The role of livestock in a new agriculture that can save city-based civilization. Allan discusses how animals, such as sheep, can be used to heal landscapes, combat climate change, restore economies, increase soil fertility, produce clean water, provide healthy habitat for wildlife, and more.

Actually, sheep are condemning the planet... when they vote.
