Grazing Systems Management: Achieving Management Goals by Balancing Livestock Grazing with Time and Space [PDF]
, 2015 Author(s): Barry, Sheila; Larson, Stephanie; Ford, Lawrence D; Bush, Lisa | Abstract: Time was, herded livestock could be led over the wide landscape to wherever the feed and water were best, but fences and property rights restrict most modern herds to much smaller ranges. Time and space are big issues for today's herder.

Finding graze time - combining grazing with automatic milking [PDF]
, 2021 The introduction of automatic milking systems (AMS) within European dairy farming in the past decades has been accompanied by a decline in grazing and in time spent outdoors by dairy cows. Grazing is a natural behaviour of cattle, and the opportunity to go outdoors is often considered a component of animal welfare.

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 ...
