This document is one of seven sets of guidelines developed to provide standards and recommendations for the integrated management of the country’s natural assets. The Guidelines for Grazing and Livestock Monitoring offer a methodology, sets of indicators and a framework to holistically and coherently assess these two variables, livestock and steppe productivity. They are addressed to decision-makers, staff of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF), national and regional grazing management plan authorities, local and regional institutions who will participate in monitoring, shepherds and any other relevant stakeholders.
