Deterioration of Southern Arizona's Grasslands: Effects of New Federal Legislation Concerning Public Grazing Lands

Abstract

Over the past century, southern Arizona grasslands have seriously deteriorated. Cattle grazing has been the most commonly cited causative factor for this deterioration. Recent enactment of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and the Public Range Improvement Act give hope for improvement in federal public lands under grazing. The writer discusses the deterioration of the range and the application of new federal legislation to improve federal grazing lands. He then discusses the effect of the federal act upon state trust lands used for grazing.
