Computer‐Aided Evaluation of Forage Management: Forage Manager

Journal of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Education, 1993
ABSTRACTForage management decisions can have a profound impact on ruminant livestock production systems. But the importance of forage management is difficult to convey to students, because forages are often an input in animal systems and not the end product.

FORAGES AND PASTURES | Grazing Management

2002
Development of an effective grazing management system depends on understanding the needs of the pasture and the animals grazing the pasture. The systems adopted can vary from continuous or set -stocked grazing, at one extreme, to very small allocations of pasture through strip grazing, at the other extreme. At the correct stocking rate, animals set set-

Management of Forages for Stocker Cattle

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2006
Successful grazing management of stockers requires knowledge of plant growth characteristics. Maintaining abundant leaf area is critical to support photosynthesis and plant growth as well as to provide nutritious grazing for the animals. Controlling stocking rate, stock density, and lengths of grazing and recovery periods can optimize individual animal

Forage and Grain Yields of Wheat and Triticale as Affected by Forage Management Practices

Crop Science, 1993
Most research on the effects of grazing cereal grains has been conducted on hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and little information exists concerning the influence of forage harvest on the subsequent grain yield of other cereal crops. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of forage harvest management on subsequent grain ...

Observations of Management Intensive Grazing and Forage Management

American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2002
Management Intensive Grazing is a tool we have developed over the years to harvest forages on our 1400-acre farming operation. Our family-owned corporation consists of my father and one employee, and includes 400 acres in corn, 400 acres in soybeans, 160 acres in hay and 500 acres in pasture. We have 220 beef cows and a 400-head finishing feedlot.
