Nitrogen fertilization, stocking rate and rotational grazing effects on steers grazing Pennisetum clandestinum.

open access: yes, 1990
Kikuyu pastures at the Ukulinga research farm near Pietermaritzburg were fertilized with 150 and 300 kg nitrogen (N) ha -1 in the summer periods of 1985-86 and 1986-87, and were continuously grazed with steers at stocking rates of 5.4, 8.0 and 10.7 ...

Structural characteristics and forage mass of Tifton 85 pastures managed under three post-grazing residual leaf areas

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2013
The experiment was carried out on Cynodon spp cv. Tifton 85 pastures grazed by sheep under rotational stocking, with the objective of evaluating the structural characteristics as well as the forage mass of the pastures subjected to three grazing ...

The Economics of Rotational Grazing in the Gulf Coast Region: Costs, Returns, and Labor Considerations, Phase II

open access: yes
Profitability and labor associated with rotational grazing at three stocking rates and continuous grazing at a medium stocking rate are compared. On a per-acre basis, profits are lowest for low stocking rate rotational grazing.

The Roles of Labor and Profitability in Choosing a Grazing Strategy for Beef Production in the U.S. Gulf Coast Region

open access: yes
Comparisons are made concerning labor required and profitability associated with continuous grazing at three stocking rates and rotational grazing at a high stocking rate in the U.S. Gulf Coast region.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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

Mixed grazing of sheep and cattle using continuous or rotational stocking

open access: yes, 1997
Two consecutive experiments were conducted to test a hypothesis that mixed grazing outcome is influenced by the type of stocking system applied. The objective of both experiments was to investigate the influence of co-grazing with sheep on cattle ...

Rotational stocking management affects the structural and nutritional characteristics of Guinea grass swards and milk productivity by crossbred dairy cows

open access: yes, 2013
The type of stocking system can affect sward canopy structure, changing the nutritional value of herbage and livestock production. The present study evaluated structural and nutritive features of Guinea grass (Panicum maximum Jacq. var.

Using an observer rating method to assess the effects of rotational stocking method on beef cattle temperament over time

open access: yes, 2016
The objectives of this study were to propose behavioral-based definitions for the adjectives used in an observer rating method, and to use this approach to characterize temperament over time in cattle kept under rotational stocking method.

Grazing alters plant biomass allocation by regulating soil available nutrients and root biomass distribution in alpine meadows

open access: yesGeoderma
Plant biomass allocation is important for understanding the material cycle and turnover in grassland ecosystems under environmental changes. However, biomass allocation involves two main hypotheses, optimal and isometric allocation, that remain ...
