Livestock Response to Multispecies and Deferred-Rotation Grazing on Forested Rangeland [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Range Management, 1999
Performance of cow-calf (Bos taurus) and ewe-lamb (Ovis aries) units was compared under multispecies versus singlespecies grazing and deferred-rotation versus continuous stocking during a 10-year grazing trial. Treatments were arranged in a 3 species (cattle, sheep, or both species) by 2 grazing method (deferred rotation or continuous) factorial using ...

Heavy Stocking and Early-Season Deferment of Grazing on Mediterranean-Type Grassland [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Range Management, 1999
An experiment with beef cows grazing Mediterranean-type grassland was conducted to study the effect of grazing deferment at the beginning of the growing season on pasture productivity and animal performance under intensive herd management conditions.

Grazing intensity effects on herbaceous community composition in burned sagebrush steppe

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
There is limited knowledge of grazing impacts on longer term plant community dynamics following fire in sagebrush steppe. This study evaluated vegetation response to different intensities of deferred rotation cattle grazing over 16 years (2007–2022) on ...

Tiller population density in deferred Urochroa decumbens pasture and strategies for nitrogen fertilization - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i1.10243

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2012
The objective of this work was to evaluate the tiller population density in Urochroa decumbens pasture deferred for 95 and 140 days, aiming to determine the best strategy for nitrogen fertilization.

How does the condition of the pasture in late winter influence the plant and animal responses in the subsequent seasons?

open access: yesBioscience Journal, 2022
This study aimed to test the hypotheses: (i) the deferred pasture with lower height in late winter has greater herbage accumulation rate (HAR) and better structure, which facilitates the animal selective grazing during the subsequent spring and summer ...

Pasture height at the beginning of deferment as a determinant of signal grass structure and potential selectivity by cattle - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i4.20421

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2013
Current experiment identified the height of signal grass {Urochloa decumbens (Stapf) R. D. Webster cv. Basilisk [syn. Brachiaria decumbens Stapf cv. Basilisk]} at the beginning of deferment that provided an appropriate pasture structure and potential ...

Can Ammonium Nitrate Be a Strategic Tool by Replacing Urea as a Nitrogen Supplementation Source to Beef Cattle in Intensified Grazing Systems?

open access: yesFermentation
For cattle raised on tropical grass pastures, it is essential to explore strategies that circumvent climatic seasonality that affect forage availability and quality. We hypothesize that the intensification of grazing systems, with rotational and deferred
