...9 and 16.2 (depending on densities of rabbits) and with a 5% reduction of rabbits, this ratio varies between 5.9 and 32.4. Thus, fighting with rabbits in Australian rangelands using duct prevalence of RHD is economically justified. Dehghani Tafti (2001) attempted the benefits - costs analysis of summer pasture utilization in Yasouj. This study contains an area which was equivalent to 52,500 hectares of pasture with traditional animal husbandry. In this study, the benefits gained from sale of animal and animal products was calculated to be Rial 3943200000, as it included 28% of total income of average of rural and tribal households. In this study costs of erosion due to grazing by soil erosion and loss of fertile soil fertility reducing land costs were estimated as the equivalent of Rial 4381960000. Accordingly they found non justified pasture utilization based on the calculated benefit-cost ratio of 0.74. Dehghanian and Nasiri Mahallati (1999) studied the views on how to manage pastures by the rural nomads and herders of northern Khurasan. Management variables of interest in this study were mainly about how to use qualitative range of models. The dependent variables in this study were "optimism" and "lack of optimism" towards the improvement of pastures. According to the results of this study, variable of submitting the permission of grazing as separated or shared, were evaluated as the most important effective variables on development and situation of pasturelands. In all cases the ranchers often prefer joint resolution states. Abedini (2001) evaluated the participation of ranchers in rehabilitation of pastures and social factors affecting their participation in the project area of Damavand. In this study, at first, different fields of participation and various obstacles were involved. Based on the analysis, it is found that 82 percent of ranchers have good knowledge in areas such as fertilizer, grazing, seeding, grazing capacity and characteristics of a good pasture. 76% of them are willing to invest in the pasture. Dalton and Masters (1998) studied the effect of changes in animal- farm management pattern and the optimization of this model in Mali and the results showed that the method of free grazing was better than method of monopolization and to create limitation. Meanwhile, in order to prevent condensation of grazing in one region it is necessary to consider a short amount of tax. The authors believe that taxation can increase the welfare of the entire collection. Var (1998) studied the changes in the productivity of improve pasturelands of Sourh Wales of Australia applying total factor productivity index and the econometric model....

Var (1998) studied the changes in the productivity of improve pasturelands of Sourh Wales of Australia applying total factor productivity index and the econometric model. Based on the findings of this study. Productivity of livestock that used pastures containing legumes showed a relatively stable trend over time. Productivity index rate in pastures with permanent vegetation was about 4.5, which was significantly higher than those of other pastures. Overall, it was found that despite the growth in productivity and the productivity of livestock pastures during periods of studying the productivity of pastures with legume vegetation was decreasing. Jones and colleagues (2000) assessed side costs of distribution of type of weed (toothy) called Nassella Tritochoma in pastures of south-eastern Australia....
