Abstract
Over capacity and excessive grazing have been happenend in Rangelands of Iran. Therefor this caused regression in ranglands.

Seeding project and Light grazing were carrird out In some years. Detailed studies of vegetations were performed in 1383. It was including: determine of situation, trends, capacity, typing and Preparing Floristic list. Mentioned steps were taken to surrounding areas at the outside of site and were compared to each other. In present papper’results showed, in the outside of station ranglands canopy cover of plants 20.9%, Composition percentage of class I and II plants 42.41%, Composition percentage of Perennial plants 41.99% and Forage exploitation 86.21% decreased compare to inside station. It was due to overgrazing and grazing off-season. The pressure of Grazing Had not changed composition percentage of the Annual pasture plants. Situation of Inside the station was good with positive trends. On the contrary outside the station had badly situation with negative trends.
