Grazing lawns and overgrazing in frequently grazed grass communities [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Abstract Frequent grazing can establish high forage value grazing lawns supporting high grazer densities, but can also produce overgrazed grass communities with unpalatable or low grass basal cover, supporting few grazers.

Operational strategies for optimizing grazing when using automatic milking systems in organic dairy production [PDF]

, 2013
Successful grazing when using AMS is possible without having to devote a great deal of time to organize and fetch cows every day. However, a careful strategy and good infrastructure, and observation of cow behaviour and pasture are necessary, and the ...

Production, Transport, and Metabolism of Volatile Fatty Acids in the Yak Rumen: Unraveling the Unique Mechanisms Underpinning High-Altitude Adaptation

Microorganisms
Volatile fatty acids (VFAs), the primary end-products of microbial fermentation in the ruminant forestomach, supply approximately 70% of the host’s energy requirements and play a pivotal role in maintaining energy homeostasis.

Milk composition changes and alterations in bacteria, serum, and gut metabolome over time in lactating yaks and Simmental cows [PDF]

Animal Bioscience
Objective This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying milk composition divergence between naks (female yaks) and Simmental cows (S-cows) by integrating longitudinal multi-omics analyses of gut microbiota and metabolomes. Methods We determined

Low-Intensity, High-Frequency Grazing Positively Affects Defoliating Behavior, Nutrient Intake and Blood Indicators of Nutrition and Stress in Sheep

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
The intensity and frequency of grazing affect the defoliating strategy of ruminants, their daily nutrient intake, thus nutrition and physiological status.

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...
