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 ...

Time budgets differ in horses during continuous and space-restricted rotational grazing
Veterinary and Animal Science, 2022 Horses can become obese and develop related health issues such as laminitis from excessive grazing on high-quality pasture grass; limiting pasture intake can allow weight loss to occur. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of space-restricted rotational grazing on body weight (BW) and time budgets in horses. Eight mature geldings and

Forage removal and grazing time of cattle on small paddocks [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 2000 Animals used in grazing trials with small paddocks usually have not been exposed to the experimental site and related research procedures. Grazing trials conducted in May and August 1996 on smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) quantified forage removal and grazing time of heifers adapted or not adapted to small paddocks.

Daily grazing time as a risk factor for alterations at the hock joint integument in dairy cows
Animal, 2013 Structural changes lead to increasing sizes of dairy herds and a reduction in grazing use. Thus, cows spend more time in the barn and become more exposed to the barn environment.

Effect of Time of Supplementation on Performance and Grazing Behavior of Grazing Steers
, 2020 Beef cattle follow a daily, cyclical pattern of grazing, rumination, and digestion that coincides with their environment and season. Traditionally backgrounding operations hand feed any supplement in the morning. However, this practice may interrupt typical grazing patterns during early morning and subsequent rumination during the heat of the day. Self-

Animals, 2023 This study investigated the relationship of the length of time spent grazing and ruminating with the performance parameters of spring-calved grazing dairy cows (n = 162) over the lactation period for three lactation seasons (n = 54 per season).

Timing and intensity of goose grazing: Implications for grass height and first harvest
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 2023 Grazing birds like geese can have a big impact on agricultural land, potentially causing damage to crops. Their exploitation of agricultural land varies within and between seasons, and these temporal grazing patterns can be influenced by management.

Time Resolved Polarised Grazing Incidence Neutron Scattering from Composite Materials [PDF]
Polymers, 2019 Neutron scattering experiments are a unique tool in material science due to their sensitivity to light elements and magnetic induction. However, for kinetic studies the low brilliance at existing sources poses challenges. In the case of periodic excitations these challenges can be overcome by binning the scattering signal according to the excitation ...

Relationship between diurnal grazing time and herbage intake in dairy cows in rotational grazing [PDF]
Ciência Rural, 2011 The aim of this study was describe the relationship between grazing time and herbage intake and identify tools to grazing management of dairy cows grazing Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) on a rotational grazing method. Six dairy cows in mid-lactation period were allowed to graze paddocks during three grazing cycles.
