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.

Effect of Grazing Exclusion and Rotational Grazing on Soil Aggregate Stability in Typical Grasslands in Inner Mongolia, China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Soil aggregate is extremely important for soil health and sustainable land management. Overgrazing has caused serious degeneration of grassland in the past decades and how to restore the degraded soil through grazing management is urgently needed.

Impact of livestock grazing management on carbon stocks: a case study in sparse elm woodlands of semi-arid lands [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Livestock grazing is a widespread practice in human activities worldwide. However, the effects of livestock grazing management on vegetation carbon storage have not been thoroughly evaluated. In this study, we used the system dynamic approach to simulate

Does nature-based solution sustain grassland quality? Evidence from rotational grazing practice in China

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Rotational grazing is considered as one of the nature-based solutions (NbS) to grassland protection by natural scientists. However, its effects on improving grassland quality are still unclear when it is adopted by herders.
