Abstract:

High-density stands of pine-trees (Pinus halepensis) germinated after wildfires represent a major hazard of future fire propagation. Goat grazing, applied six years after a fire, did not decrease significantly pinetree density but resulted in low, cone-less trees and low cover of flammable biomass. Pine mortality was higher in control than in grazed plots and pine-trees adapted to grazing by growing in the summer, while control counterparts were inactive. Selective pine-tree removal did not succeed in eradicating the stand. Pine-trees can constitute up to 17% of goats’ diets.
