Abstract

The main projected challenges for the grazing industry under climate change are declines in pasture productivity, reduced forage quality, livestock heat stress, greater problems with some pests and weeds, more frequent droughts, more intense rainfall events, and greater risks of soil degradation. These challenges partly reflect the projected drying trend across the rangelands, which is uncertain, and, at least in some locations, climate conditions could become more favourable for pastoralism, presenting new opportunities. Uncertainties over which locations will fare better under climate change and which will be worst affected present a major challenge for adaptation at regional and property scales.
