Includes bibliographical references. This thesis sets out to establish how extensive pastoral systems have changed and investigated the role of the key legislative and policy influences on these changes. It examined the current key drivers of pastoral mobility and analysed the different movement patterns and their spatial extent within a spatially constrained environment. This thesis also investigated the role of vegetation type and condition in the distribution of grazing pressure and further discussed the implications of using variable stocking rates in a spatially constrained pastoral system. 2014-08-13T14:07:40Z 2014-08-13T14:07:40Z 2013 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6180 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
