Improvement of Desert Ranges in Soviet Central Asia (1985) examines the progress made in the Soviet Union's attempts to increase desert vegetation without using irrigation or fertilizers. Prominent Soviet scientists show that by making use of ecological resources alone - particularly moisture reserves and mineral nutrients available in the root zone of the soil - desert ranges worldwide can be made into more productive grazing land.
