The aim of the study is to determine change of grassland management depending on the time, such as distribution of vegetation intensity with 10-days intervals, time of vegetation growth start and reach of highest density and grazing starting and ending dates. SPOT-Veg NDVI data were used in the study. These data were analyzed by VAST software. Accordingly, vegetation activity started in the (period 7) and reached the highest point in the fırst and second week of May (period 14.15). Vegetation activity continued, but gradually decreased until second week of July (period 20). Average grazing capacity of rangelands in Eskişehir Province was calculated as livestock grazing number per 0.81 hectar. Accordingly, it was concluded that monitoring data of rangeland vegetation during the year can be used in rangeland management.
