Abstract

Northern WATERSHED OF KOUHRANG RIVER with the area of 68437 hectares is located in northwestern Chahar Mahal and Bakhtiary province within 49o54" to 50o9"E longitude and 32o83" to 32o36"N latitude. Making a balance and equilibrium between the number of ranchers, the rangeland production potential and appropriate FLOCK SIZE in each utilization unit is a necessary task. It is a matter of importance to determine suitable ranch size based on pastoral household but suitable household livelihood as well. The main goal of this study is to determine utilization unit size based on ecologic and SOCIOECONOMIC factors for each household. Along with detecting the ranch allotments, the range capacity and its productivity potential were studied. Then, based on expenses and the revenues resulting from herdship, (on ranges), the suitable FLOCK SIZE for fulfillment of the household expenses regarding the range utilization periods, the suitable range size per household was determined. 10 vegetation types with 0.91 AUM per hectares grazing capacity were detected in studied area. There are 46 range allotments and some parts of other 6 range allotments in studied area with average area at 1510 hectares. Average pastoral household is 36.8 per unit range allotments. Pastoral households share at rangelands is 41 hectares now. The minimum and suitable ranch area for each pastoral household which can provide annual needs and costs is 520 hectares and 142 animal unit at a mix flock at 3 to 2 ratio of sheep to goat for a 100 – dayes grazing season. The result of this study showed that production potential at each range unit is influenced by FLOCK SIZE, household share on farming lands, and the household numbers on each RANCH UNIT. RANCH UNIT and the LIVELIHOOD LEVEL, have significant influence at 5% level on suitable ranch size per household.
