Description

The aim of the programme of which this work is part is to investigate the role of mixed grazing in preservation of range vegetation and sustaining or improving animal production in the Senegalese Sahel. In this paper we apply the linear pro­gramming method of Connolly (1974) modified to allow for missing information, to data on animal preferences for plant species.
