Excerpt from General Technical Report
Classification by habitat type does not imply that managers should manage for climax vegetation. For ex ample, forage production for livestock declines rapidly with advancement of succession towards climax in many western forest habitat types (pfister5); thus, maintenance of seral vegetation may be the goal of management. The usefulness of the climax concept, however, remains unchanged.
