Grazing regime rather than grazing intensity affect the foraging behavior of cattle
Ecological InformaticsForaging behavior of cattle is a critical factor for sustainable grassland grazing. Investigating cattle's behavior under varying grazing strategies can offer valuable insights into the interactions between grazing animals and grasslands.

Effect of Restricted Grazing Time on the Foraging Behavior and Movement of Tan Sheep Grazed on Desert Steppe [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2013 To investigate the effect of restricted grazing time on behavior of Tan sheep on desert steppe, forty 4-months old male Tan sheep with an original body weight (BW) of 15.62±0.33 kg were randomly allocated to 4 grazing groups which corresponded to 4 ...

Beef heifers grazing behavior and herbage intake in natural grassland under rotational grazing
Ciência Rural, 2015 It was evaluated the effect of two rest intervals between grazing occupations in rotational grazing; 375 and 750 DD (degree-days); based on the cumulative thermal sum necessary for leaf expansion of native grasses of two functional groups over the ...

Tropical Grasslands-Forrajes Tropicales, 2016 This study aimed to evaluate intake and ingestive behavior of goats rotationally grazing Tanzania (Panicum maximum cv. Tanzânia 1) pastures with 2 levels of post-grazing residue. The experimental area consisted of 1.2 ha of Tanzania pasture divided into 12 paddocks (24 areas), managed under 2 post-grazing residues: low green (leaf + stem) herbage mass (

Metabolic and Productive Response and Grazing Behavior of Lactating Dairy Cows Supplemented with High Moisture Maize or Cracked Wheat Grazing at Two Herbage Allowances in Spring. [PDF]
Animals (Basel), 2021 The aim was to determine the effect of the herbage allowance (HA) and supplement type (ST) on dry matter intake (DMI), milk production and composition, grazing behavior, rumen function, and blood metabolites of grazing dairy cows in the spring season ...

Grazing Cow Behavior and Lameness [PDF]
Animals, 2020 Development of accelerometer-based lameness (mobility) detection has focused on cow behaviors such as lying and walking. Several studies, usually small, have reported levels of accuracy up to 91%. However, there has been limited independent replication of these results.

Generic Behavior of Grazing Impact Oscillators [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 1996 We give experimental evidence for a new bifurcation structure that arises when smooth dynamical systems cross a boundary. Our experiment concerns a driven impacting leaf-spring oscillator with a very precise control of the driving amplitude. The results are in surprisingly good agreement with the predictions of a simple nonlinear mapping that is valid ...

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Rearing dairy calves with their mothers could teach them how to graze, optimizing grass use, and improving their welfare and performance. We tested the short-term effects of dam-calf contact experience on grazing and social behavior of weaned calves ...

Some Effects of a Rotational Grazing Treatment on Cattle Grazing Behavior [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1989 Research was conducted on the effects of rotational grazing (RG) compared to continuous grazing (CG) on the behavior of cattle grazing on rangelands. Different livestock dent distance walked (km/day), and individual animal space (m2/animrl) in grazing subherds.
