The Role of Grazing in Creating Suitable Sward Structures for Breeding Waders in Agricultural Landscapes

open access: yesLivestock Science, 2005
International audienceFrench wet grasslands support important populations of lapwings and others waders. Grazing management is a key issue in the use of grasslands by these birds since they are very sensitive to sward structure (height and heterogeneity).

Studying Spatial and Temporal Dynamics of Sward Structure at Low Stocking Densities: The Use of an Extended Rising-Plate-Meter Method

open access: yesGrass and Forage Science, 2003
An extended rising‐plate‐meter method was used to study the spatial and temporal variability of the sward structure of extensively managed pastures over a grazing season.

Effects of Sward Structure on Herbivore Foraging Behaviour in a South African Savanna: An Investigation of the Forage Maturation Hypothesis

open access: yesAustral Ecology, 2006
The grass layer of savannas is characterized by strong temporal and spatial heterogeneity in the quantity and quality of forage. Besides this, there is strong variation in other aspects of sward structure, here defined as sward chemistry, morphology ...
