Rangeland occupies approximately 51 percent (6,7 billion ha) of the earth´s land surface (Heady und Child, 1994 according to the World Resources Institute, 1986), that means that every second square meter once in a year is pastured by grazing animals. Therefore in general rangeland is the most important ecosystem in the world.
