| Abstract | ||
| Managing ranch units has been one of the important issues during the last decades in studying the rangeland of Iran. The most noticeable system for range management based on grazing licene is one of the three types of council، collective and private exploitation. One of the implementing methods concerning the balance between livestock and range and reduction of range degradation is the introduction of reasonable range utility units. The present study seeks to compare different ownership types with considering independent variables of rangeland condition، exploitation and the capability degree of collective and private ownership so as to introduce the most appropriate method for user's inclination and better quality. According to goals and assumptions، 105 questionnaires were completed through direct interview with exploiters (only those who owned grazing licene). The state of the rangeland in 41sample ranges was calculated through 4 factories. The results showed the condition of private rangeland has been obtained to be better than the collective rangelands ،however، no meaningful difference in rangelands management methods in this type of possession. Because of improper exploitation methods in this county، council exploitation is not suggested. Despite its probable weaknesses, the collective possession، because of its high partnership spirit among collective beneficiaries، by some conservatism can be more appropriate than other types and its deficiencies can be reduced by proper management and create the motivation of conserving natural resources by special programs among people. Regarding that the majority of ranges are commonly used, establishing cooperatives and giving the right of utilization to cooperatives is of priority based on the peoples' opinions. | ||
