So you would advocate total decimation of preferred browse on a sustained basis?
Of course I wouldn't advocate that and that is why I said I didn't support managing the herd in 2G at 40 DPSm.
The quality of the habitat determines the natural balance and some areas may only be able to support 20 DPSM while other areas may be able to carry 40 DPSM.
That is my answer to BTB's question. WMU's that are 90% forested may only be able to carry 20 DPSM and still get adequate regeneration of preferred species ,while WMU's with a significant percentage of active or reverting farmland may be able to support 40 DPSM. And, if you remember the PGC's previous goals were the exact opposite. WMU 2g goals was 15 DPSM while 5C was 6 DPSM and 5B was 5 DPSM.
