Abstract
A DECLINE in carrying capacity has occurred in large areas of the Pilbara district of the North-West, due to the decrease in palatable plants and the increase in unpalatable ones.
The relative palatability of the various species to sheep is therefore a matter of considerable importance to pastoralists.
