Abstract

Rangeland restoration in Far West Texas is a risky venture; failure lurks around every corner. Practitioners can increase the likelihood of success 1) by establishing reasonable goals and expectations, 2) by choosing sites with potential to respond, 3) when appropriate, by selecting species adapted to the site, and 4) by adopting management practices that promote the germination, establishment, and reproduction of the selected species.
