Metabolic profile of female lambs on annual ryegrass pasture managed under different grazing intensities and methods [PDF]
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2020 The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of grazing methods and intensities on the metabolic profile of lambs grazing ryegrass. This study was performed in Eldorado do Sul (RS).

Production of sheep grazing on nitrogen-fertilized tifton 85 grass in continuous stocking
Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2014 Biomass and forage volume density and the performance and stocking rate of sheep on pastures with nitrogen-fertilized Tifton 85 and subjected to a continuous stocking system were evaluated.

A Comparison of Stocking Methods for Pasture-Based Growing-Finishing Pig Production Systems
Animals, 2020 Two alternative stocking methods (rotational and strip-grazing) were compared to continuous stocking at a stocking rate of 47 pigs ha−1 in tall fescue pastures.

Validating a Simple Mechanistic Model That Describes Weather Impact on Pasture Growth
Plants, 2021 Mathematical models have many uses. When input data is limited, simple models are required. This occurs in pasture agriculture when managers typically only have access to temperature and rainfall values.

Cattle production supplemented on signal grass pastures during the rainy season
Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2016 The effects of four supplement doses (0, 1, 2 and 3 kg animal-1 day-1) on pasture characteristics and on cattle production on Brachiaria decumbens cv. Basilisk pastures in continuous stocking with variable stocking rate were assessed. Experimental design

Phosphorus pools in soils under rotational and continuous grazed pastures
Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2020 Phosphorus loss from intensively grazed pastures is an ongoing concern in agricultural watersheds. We investigated P pools in fields managed as continuous (stocking rate of 3.55 animal unit [AU] ha–1) and rotational (stocking rate of 2.56 AU ha–1) cattle
