AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE MERITS OF INTENSIVE ROTATIONAL GRAZING
Grass and Forage Science, 1964An investigation into the merits of intensive rotational grazing or paddock grazing was started in 1960. The experiment covered 40 acres, half of which was divided into 20 single‐acre paddocks and the other half into 2 fields of 9 and 11 acres, respectively. Two groups of carefully paired cows were used to measure the output of milk per acre.

The grazing rotation : Effects of different combinations of presence and absence
Proceedings of the Annual Congresses of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1977The "period of presence" of animals in a camp and the subsequent "period of absence" form two important components of rotational grazing systems. In an investigation into the effects of a range of periods of presence and absence on Tall Grassveld in Natal, results after the first and second three-year cycles of grazing suggest a definite trend towards ...

Waterfowl Response to Rest-Rotation Grazing
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1976Waterfowl production on the stock-water reservoirs in the Milk River Association Allotment, Phillips County, Montana, was studied during 1973 and 1974 to evaluate the influence of rest-rotation grazing management. The breeding pair population increased by 42 percent, from 190 to 270 pairs, and brood production increased by 50 percent, from 127 to 191 ...

Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1986
Reports the results of a study conducted to compare the effect of grazing procedure on the quantity and quality of the pasture as measured by the performance of weaned lambs grazing on Midmar Italian ryegrass; Irrigated Midmar Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) was grazed either continuously or rotationally at four grazing intensities by three ...

Animal-Driven Rotational Grazing Patterns on Seasonally Grazed New Mexico Rangeland
Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2014Abstract Global positioning system (GPS) data collected over a 4-yr period on 52 crossbred young cows grazing a 146-ha pasture were used to determine whether cattle establish patch-scale rotational patterns within pastures. Cow positions at 5-min intervals were recorded during 20 d in late winter/early spring.

Continuous and Rotational Grazing for Beef Production
1984There is great interest in intensive continuous grazing, especially because of the saving in labour, but on the other hand there are some questions in connection with grass quality, animal health and animal production.

A Symposium on Rotation Grazing in North America
Journal of Range Management, 1951R OTATION grazing composed one of the panel periods at the third annual meeting of the Range Society held in San Antonio, Texas, in January, 1950. Several papers on the subject were read and lively discussions followed. It soon became apparent that much diversity of opinion exists among both research workers and operators regarding the merits of ...

Characterizing and simulating a rotational grazing strategy
1997The management of dairy production systems based on rotational grazing and maize-concentrate feeding requires a complex lookahead decision making procedure to elaborate a seasonal strategy that is sufficiently robust to uncertainty. In this paper, the problem is characterized rather precisely as finding for the late winter to early summer period an ...
