Effects of grazing intensity and prescribed fire on soil physical and hydrological properties and pasture yield in the savanna woodlands of Burkina Faso

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of grazing intensity were investigated by a comparison of non-grazed areas, lightly grazed area, moderately grazed, heavily grazed areas and very heavily grazing areas that received one of two fire treatments: early burning and fire protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of selective tree cutting, livestock and prescribed fire on herbaceous biomass in the savannah woodlands of Burkina Faso, West Africa

TL;DR: The main findings were by and large specific for the species, the growth form and the location, which supports the argument for devolution of management responsibility to the local level where there is such site-specific ecological knowledge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fuel and fire characteristics in savanna–woodland of West Africa in relation to grazing and dominant grass type

TL;DR: In this paper, fuel characteristics, fire behaviour and temperature were studied in relation to grazing, dominant grass type and wind direction in West African savanna-woodland by lighting 32 prescribed early fires.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of livestock and prescribed fire on coppice growth after selective cutting of Sudanian savannah in Burkina Faso

TL;DR: Can livestock grazing and/or fire regimes be used to promote coppice growth in Sudanian savannah silviculture?
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of sapling population in savanna woodlands of Burkina Faso subjected to grazing, early fire and selective tree cutting for a decade

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effects of moderate level of grazing, early fire and selective tree cutting on the dynamics of sapling populations on two sites, Laba and Tiogo, in the savanna woodland of Burkina Faso and assessed for 10 years from 1992 to 2002.
