Current Status of Forage Use on the Goat Farming in Mountainous Pasture

Journal of The Korean Society of Grassland and Forage Science, 2015
This study was carried out to offer basic information for the promotion of the goat industry and the improvement of mountainous-pasture management by investigating seasonal changes in forage and livestock productivity according to the grazing-pasture type.

PERFORMANCE AND VITAMIN A STATUS OF SHEEP GRAZING HIGH‐NITRATE PASTURES

Grass and Forage Science, 1968
Nitrogen levels of 0,184 and 368 Ib (0,83.47 and 166.94 kg) were applied, as calcium ammonium nitrate, in six dressings throughout the grazing season to a perennial ryegrass/white clover sward. Herbage samples taken, periodically from each treatment and analysed nitrate for, indicated that the latter increased with increasing levels of applied nitrogen.

Pest status of slugs (Stylommatophora: Mollusca) in two New Zealand pastures

Crop Protection, 1992
Abstract Slug populations, principally of Deroceras reticulatum, in two northern New Zealand pastures fluctuated markedly over a 2-year period. The abundance of slugs was generally highest in late winter to early summer, with numbers reaching 60–80 m−2.

The nutritional status of pregnant and nonpregnant mares grazing South East Queensland pastures

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1988
Summary It has been reported that the increasing nutritional demands from mid to late pregnancy of grazing mares may not be met when these stages of gestation coincide with pastures being affected by frost. It was established in this study that grass/legume pastures could support the nutritional requirements of brood mares by ...

Thermal status of sheep at pasture in western New South Wales

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1971
The thermal status of three unrestrained rams at pasture was studied for a period of 5 days during March in central western New South Wales. A temperature telemetry system was used to measure rectal temperatures, skin surface and subcutaneous temperatures on the mid back, and subcutaneous temperatures of the scrotum of each ram.

Effect of cobalt application on the cobalt status of pastures 3. Comparison of chelate and sulphate as cobalt sources for topdressing deficient pastures

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 1990
Abstract Cobalt chelate (Co EDTA) and cobalt sulphate (CoSO 4 ), applied in liquid and solid forms, were compared as sources of cobalt (Co) for topdressing pasture at a site located within a paddock where grazing lambs responded to vitamin B 12

The Effect of Monensin Sodium on Trace Element Status of Cattle at Pasture

1988
When fed to sheep and cattle the carboxylic ionophore, monensin sodium, can produce a wide variety of effects on ruminai function with the main effect being a decrease in the acetate:propionate ratio1. Monensin has been used to increase feed conversion efficiency in cattle and sheep fed high concentrate diets and also to improve average daily gain in ...

Mineral status of beef cows and sheep on spring pasture fertilized with kieserite.

Journal of animal science, 1981
The utilization of minerals in orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) fertilized with kieserite (2,240 kg/ha) was examined in spring with lactating beef cows and wether lambs. Kieserite increased the concentration of Mg in vegetative herbage from .22 to .29% ( P less than .01) and of S from .20 to .29% (P less than .01), with little effect on other ...
