On-Ranch Grazing Strategies: Context for the Rotational Grazing Dilemma
Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2015Considerable debate remains over the efficacy of rotational grazing systems to enhance conservation and agricultural production goals on rangelands. We analyzed responses to grazing management questions in the Rangeland Decision Making Surveys of 765 California and Wyoming ranchers in order to characterize on-ranch grazing strategies and identify ...

Grass and Forage Science, 1984
AbstractData on sheep live weights, herbage standing crop and herbage quality are presented from a 3‐year grazing management study comparing set stocking, four‐paddock rotational grazing and four‐paddock forward rotational grazing systems. In both rotational grazing and forward rotational grazing systems, sheep were sequentially moved from one paddock ...

The Bovine Practitioner, 1994
Intensive rotational grazing is an alternative feeding strategy for dairy cows. If forages and grazing animals are well managed, returns from intensive rotational grazing compare favorably to confinement- stored feeding systems.

Rotational Grazing Adoption by Cow-Calf Operations
2022Rotational grazing is a management practice in which livestock are cycled through multiple fenced grazing areas (paddocks) in order to manage forage production, forage quality, animal health, and environmental quality. USDA, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and other organizations promote rotational grazing as an important grazing practice

Rotational Grazing: A Farm Profile
Journal of Sustainable Agriculture, 1996ABSTRACT A farm profile of a New York State dairy farm which relies on rotationally grazed pasture as its primary source of feed is presented. Information is provided on the farm and farm household characteristics, pasture management strategies, and the savings from switching to a grazing system from a confinement feeding system.

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.

A simple model for optimizing rotational grazing
Agricultural Systems, 1993Abstract A simple mathematical model has been formulated to model a simple rotational grazing system of two fields, where a mob of animals is grazed first in one field, then the other. By using linear functions for the rate of herbage mass accumulation and for the rate of animal herbage intake, this system may be solved explicitly to yield ...

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 ...
