The Management of Pastures for Grazing
This article examines pasture management in moist temperate climates, and looks at the reasons why putting the findings into practice has been so difficult. Many factors affect the behaviour of the animal-pasture system, including whether continuous or rotational grazing is practised, the intensity of grazing, and seasonal differences in climate and ...

Precision Grazing Management- Understanding Farmer Uptake Of Grazing Software
Increased precision in grazing management decisions requires regular pasture measurement and effective use of the data for enhanced decision-making. Technology adoption theory can help to provide insights on the incentives and barriers to uptake and on-farm adaptation of precision farming tools. In this study, we used an inductive workshop process with

Uncertainty and sustainability in the management of semi-arid rangelands [PDF]
We analyze a dynamic and stochastic ecological-economic model of grazing management in semi-arid rangelands. The non-equilibrium ecosystem is driven by stochastic precipitation. A risk averse farmer chooses a grazing management strategy under uncertainty
