    This study evaluated the effects of holistic grazing management (HGM) on biomass production and soil properties under holistic and non-holistic grazing sites. The study was conducted in two Group Ranches namely, Koija and Il Motiok in Naibunga Conservancy, Laikipia County, Kenya. Vegetation attributes and soil parameters were determined in four plots randomly sited and established within the Il Motiok Ranch, which is under HGM, and in the same number of plots sited and established in Koija Ranch which is under free-range grazing system.

    The impact of land use and cover change on soil quality and pasture production was investigated in the rangelands of Nakasongola District, Uganda. Landsat (TM) images of 1986 and 1990 and Landsat (ETM+) of 2000 and 2004 for Nakasongola District were used to determine the extent and patterns of land use and cover change using the Integrated Land and Water Information Systems (ILWIS) 3.6 software.

    The study discusses land-degradation in pastoral communities and depicts land-use system and associated human and livestock population pressure as the major determinant of vegetation cover, surface run-off, soil erosion, and species richness. The study recommends use of enclosures to reverse range degradation, and diversification of pastoral economies to reduce poverty and relieve pressure on land as the primary source of livelihood in the semi-arid rangelands of Kenya

    in the rangelands of Nakasongola District, Uganda, Landsat (TM) images of 1986 and 1990 and
    Landsat (ETM+) of 2000 and 2004 for Nakasongola District were used to determine the extent
    and patterns of land use and cover change using the Integrated Land and Water Information
    Systems (ILWIS) 3.6 software. A modified-Whittaker sampling design was used to collect soil
    and pasture samples in three land cover types (bare, herbaceous and woody) under three

    A study on factors affecting honey production and indigenous knowledge of the Kibwezi Communities
    in honey production was conducted using formal and informal interviews by questionnaires between January and
    Sepicmber, 199). Honey plants were determined using pollen analysis, field observation and indigenous
    knowledge. Botanical composition of trees and shrubs in unsettled University of Nairobi site and adjacent settled
    area was determined and data ana lysed for density: frequency: diversity. similarity and dissimilarity indices.

    The problem of vegetation degradation in Kenya's semi-arid areas must be addressed, if these areas are to support the increasing human and livestock population. However, efforts to rcvcgctatc denuded rangelands will be beneficial only if the right species and cultural practices arc employed.
