Rotational Grazing Modifies Rhipicephalus microplus Infestation in Cattle in the Humid Tropics [PDF]

Animals, 2023
Rotational grazing has been mentioned as a potential tool to reduce losses caused by high tick loads. This study aimed: (1) to evaluate the effect of three grazing modalities (rotational grazing with 30- and 45-day pasture rest and continuous grazing) on

Rotational Grazing Supports Coexistence of the Endangered Pygmy Bluetongue and Livestock on a Productive Agricultural Property [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Agricultural grasslands have the potential to complement conservation initiatives whilst maintaining productivity. A shift from set‐stock continuous grazing to rotational grazing has the capacity to improve ecosystem function to support both biodiversity

Influence of intensive rearing, continuous and rotational grazing systems of management on parasitic load of lambs [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2019
Aim: A trial was conducted to assess the influence of parasitic load on the lambs reared under the intensive system, continuous grazing, and rotational grazing systems of management. Materials and Methods: A total of thirty numbers of the undetermined

Efficacy of Rotational Grazing on the Control of Rhipicephalus microplus Infesting Calves in Humid Tropical Conditions [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology Research
Grazing management through pasture rotation has been mentioned as a viable alternative for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus; however, there is limited information on rotational grazing at field level.

Impacts of Rotational Grazing on Soil Carbon in Native Grass-Based Pastures in Southern Australia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Rotational grazing management strategies have been promoted as a way to improve the sustainability of native grass-based pasture systems. From disturbance ecology theory, rotational grazing relative to continuous grazing can increase pasture productivity

Spatiotemporal Mapping of Grazing Livestock Behaviours Using Machine Learning Algorithms [PDF]

Sensors
Grassland ecosystems are fundamentally shaped by the complex behaviours of livestock. While most previous studies have monitored grassland health using vegetation indices, such as NDVI and LAI, fewer have investigated livestock behaviours as direct ...

Beef heifers grazing behavior and herbage intake in natural grassland under rotational grazing [PDF]

Ciência Rural, 2015
It was evaluated the effect of two rest intervals between grazing occupations in rotational grazing; 375 and 750 DD (degree-days); based on the cumulative thermal sum necessary for leaf expansion of native grasses of two functional groups over the ...

Short-term grazing changed temporal productivity stability of alpine grassland on Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau via response species richness and functional groups asynchrony

Ecological Indicators, 2023
The stability of grassland is pivotal in maintaining the grassland functioning and services. However, the knowledge about the consequences of grazing on stability of grassland productivity is limited.

Regenerative rotational grazing management of dairy sheep increases springtime grass production and topsoil carbon storage

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Increased traditional dairy sheep production in the Basque Country of northern Spain could substantially affect pasture soils. This type of agricultural land performs vital functions and provides essential ecosystem services.
