Title: Grazing dynamics of cattle stocked at heavy rates in a continuous and rotational grazed system
Journal: Applied Animal Behaviour Science
Authors: J. W. Stuth, P. S. Grose, and L. R. Roath
Date: 1987
Summary: A continuous grazing system (CG) was compared to a 15-pasture (2-3 days each), cartwheel pattern, rotational grazing system (RG) in two adjacent, fair condition pastures, of approximately 36% open grassland in post oak (Quercus stellata) woodland, and stocked at 0.2 animal units/year (50% more then the recommended level). Average standing crop was similar between CG and RG, although there was a cycle by system interaction such that standing crop in RG was not able to recover in late summer and autumn to the same levels of CG. Grazing events (occurrence and time spent) in ...
