Response of lambs to continuous and rotational grazing at four grazing intensities on Midmar Italian ryegrass

Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1986
Reports the results of a study conducted to compare the effect of grazing procedure on the quantity and quality of the pasture as measured by the performance of weaned lambs grazing on Midmar Italian ryegrass; Irrigated Midmar Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) was grazed either continuously or rotationally at four grazing intensities by three ...

Grassland Community Composition Response to Grazing Intensity Under Different Grazing Regimes

Rangeland Ecology and Management, 2018
Abstract Grazing plays a key role in many ecosystems worldwide and can affect the structure and composition of terrestrial plant communities. Nonetheless, how grazing management, especially grazing regime (yearlong continuous and seasonal grazing), affects the relationship between grazing and vegetation on alpine grasslands has not been extensively ...

Pollinator behavioural responses to grazing intensity

Biodiversity and Conservation, 2006
It has been suggested that intensive grazing management, aimed at maintaining plant diversity, might not be the optimal choice to preserve diversity of insects in semi-natural pastures. In the present study the behaviour of flower visiting insects was studied in two semi-natural pastures in central Sweden.

The effect of grazing intensity on phosphorus spiralling in autotropic streams

Oecologia, 1983
The effect of grazing on primary productivity and phosphorus cycling in autotrophic streams was studied using the snail Goniobasis clavaeformes. Snails were added to each of three replicate laboratory stream channels, receiving once-through flow of groundwater, in densities of 2.1, 3.0, and 4.2 g ash free dry mass (AFDM)/m2.

Responses to Grazing Intensity on the Transvaal Highveld

Experimental Agriculture, 1966
SUMMARYThe productivity of climax and serai grassland in South Africa was compared at three stocking rates with steers. On climax grassland, over nine years, gains per head at one steer per morgen (= 2·12 acres = 0·86 hectare) were not significantly greater than at two steers per morgen.

Impact of Grazing Intensity during Drought in an Arizona Grassland

Conservation Biology, 2006
Abstract:  The ecological benefits of changing cattle grazing practices in the western United States remain controversial, due in part to a lack of experimentation. In 1997 we initiated an experimental study of two rangeland alternatives, cattle removal and high‐impact grazing, and compared grassland community ...
