| dcterms.abstract | Effective rangeland management relies on precise monitoring and assessment of natural resources, offering insights into ecosystem structure and function. Standardized methods, consistently applied over time and space, are crucial for ensuring data quality across various applications. Achieving successful rangeland monitoring necessitates significant investments in time and human resources, emphasizing comprehensive training. This proficiency extends beyond professionals to academics, playing a pivotal role in education. Notably, ICARDA contributes to capacity development through diverse training programs, fostering collaboration with institutions and agencies. The primary aim of these events is to enhance trainers' capacity in rangeland monitoring, assessment, and data collection, enabling effective knowledge transfer and strengthening institutional capacity. This, in turn, supports local institutes in providing informed recommendations to decision-makers, contributing to national development. The training approach seamlessly integrates traditional and advanced methodologies, including LandPKS and VegMeasure, enabling real-time monitoring. The LandPKS application revolutionizes land potential assessment, bridging local wisdom with scientific knowledge. VegMeasure, a sophisticated vegetation mapping tool, streamlines data collection using digital cameras and facilitates precise analysis. Foundational traditional methodologies like Line-Point Intercept, plant density assessment, and biomass estimation remain integral components of this holistic approach. The training of trainers empowers professionals to disseminate knowledge effectively, fostering confidence and productivity. This comprehensive understanding ensures sustainable rangeland management, respecting both traditional practices and modern technologies. | en_US |
