TY - JOUR T1 - Horses in the suburbs: Some research needs JF - Journal of Soil and Water Conservation SP - 60 LP - 61 VL - 37 IS - 1 AU - G. Wesley Burnett AU - David G. Conklin Y1 - 1982/01/01 UR - http://www.jswconline.org/content/37/1/60.abstract N2 - Horses have nearly disappeared from America's rural landscape, but horse populations are increasing in and near urban areas where they are kept for recreational purposes. While having created a multi-billion dollar industry, this phenomenen so far has not stimulated enough research to develop needed land or recreational management strategies. A documentation of the increasing interest in horses for recreational purposes and an outline of some unanswered questions regarding the land use implications of this trend are long overdue. ER -
