The Journal of Rangeland Science publishes research on rangeland ecosystems, focusing on vegetation dynamics, plant species distribution, and the impact of environmental and management factors. Articles investigate the relationship between climate, soil characteristics, grazing, and land degradation, as well as the nutritional value and cultivation of forage species. The journal also covers rangeland management practices, biodiversity assessment, and the effects of human activities and conservation efforts on these environments.
