Potential herb layer production and grazing effects in anthropogenic savannahs in the moist tropical forests of the Western Ghats of India
The moist tropical forests of the Western Ghats of India are pockmarked with savanna-grasslands created and managed by local agricultural communities. A sample of such savanna-grasslands with differing growing conditions was studied in terms of peak above-ground biomass, monthly growth and cumulative production under different clipping treatments.
