case, the only plants on the site will be Utah juniper, a few <br />. pinyon pine, with a very small amount of invaders such as <br />mustard, kochia, and Russian thistle. <br />9.

OveL. yLazing of site -by <br />any animals including big game will_ ultimately increase -the:- <br />proportion of tree production and reduce grass and forb <br />production on the site. Even without grazing_of any kind, trees <br />will over time dominate the site unless fire or other thinnig <br />methods are used. Due to the slow growth of trees on this site, <br />the use of fire or other thinning methods needs to occur at 40 to <br />80 year intervals. At the extreme, the vegetation consists of <br />Utah juniper and a few pinyon trees with almost no understory <br />production. When this occurs, erosion becomes excessive. <br />2.
