Defoliation Dynamics in Kikuyugrass Pastures Subjected to Intensities of Defoliation

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Some recent papers have recommended moderate intensities of defoliation in order to maximize herbage intake at different time-scales. Most of them, however, did not assess the grazing dynamics of individual tillers during the stocking period.
