{"product_id":"common-rangeland-plants-of-west-george-clendenin-9781623493912","title":"Common Rangeland Plants of West Central Texas","description":"Well-managed ranch lands or rangeland in Texas capture the rain that permeates our soils, sustains creeks and rivers, and replenishes aquifers, which, in turn, water our cities. The stewardship of the region is the focus of this book--the largest contributing watershed in the Colorado River Basin--viewed through the lens of its plant communities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This field guide and management reference to four million acres of rangeland in the Concho River watershed of west central Texas offers general descriptions of more than 200 plant species, including information about the plant's growing period, growth form, livestock and wildlife value, and special management issues. Accompanying photographs give the reader an idea of not only what the plant looks like on the range but also which identifiable features, such as flowers, fruit, or leaf shape, are most important to that particular plant. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In addition, several experts cover the use of fire and the management of deer, turkey, dove, and other wildlife in this region. A discussion of noxious, invasive, and toxic plants; historical accounts of the region; four useful appendixes; a glossary; and a plant list complete the impressive content of this comprehensive volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Clendenin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1623493919\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781623493912\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Texas A\u0026amp;M University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 604\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 6.80w x 1.30d","brand":"George Clendenin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439865671935,"sku":"9781623493912","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_86cdc4fb-7ae7-42df-b8fb-63b87b2c0389.jpg?v=1777179590","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/common-rangeland-plants-of-west-george-clendenin-9781623493912","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
