Effectiveness of the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index (PRF‐RI) Program: Interval Selections With Uniform Premium Subsidy Rates

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines interval selection in the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index (PRF‐RI) program and evaluates how uniform premium subsidy rates affect optimal interval selections. Using South Dakota as a case study, we show a trend of increasing selection of nonproduction intervals from 2013 to 2024, raising concerns about program

Forage mass and agronomic traits of Elephant grass genotypes under free-growth and conventional cutting systems

open access: yes, 2016
Few grass genotypes with high yield potential are used as fodder in Brazil, making it necessary to develop new cultivars. In this study, we compared tiller density, forage mass, and agronomic traits across 12 Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum ...

Deforestation and Efficiency: Insights From Forest Transition in the Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates technical efficiency (TE) and environmental efficiency (EE) of agricultural production at the municipal level of the Brazilian Cerrado in 2006 and 2017, and investigates their underlying mechanisms in relation to forest transition theory.

Herbage accumulation of bahiagrass hybrids in two different environments in southern Brazil

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Gaúcha, 2019
The native grasslands of southern Brazil have sustained livestock farming for many years; however, decline in pasture areas has led to the loss of genetic diversity of forage species.

Forage mass and morphological composition of Marandu palisade grass pasture under rest periods

open access: yes, 2016
An evaluation of productive potential is not the only factor used to determine grazing management efficiency; it is also necessary to know the structural characteristics of the canopy.

Effects of post-grazing forage mass on a beef cattle grazing system on Tanzânia grass pastures

open access: yes, 2014
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of grazing intensity on herbage accumulation, animal performance, and total system yield on irrigated Tanzania grass pastures under rotational stocking. The experiment was conducted from October 1999

MANAGEMENT OF INTENSIVE FORAGE-BEEF PRODUCTION UNDER YIELD UNCERTAINTY [PDF]

open access: yes
Forage production variability is incorporated into a decision theory framework for a beef producer in East Texas. The results suggest that the least risky, and also the most profitable, approach to intensive forage beef production is to plan for ...
