Title: A test of grazing compensation and optimization of crested wheatgrass using a simulation model
Journal: Journal of Range Management
Authors: B. E. Olson, R. L. Senft, and J. H. Richards
Date: 1988
Summary: A simulation model was created and verified using data from field experiments, to determine the compensatory growth of crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum) after grazing, at different times during the season, and to determine the combination of grazing time and intensity after wet, dry, and normal winters that would produce maximum regrowth. The model predicted that the greatest crested wheatgrass regrowth would occur after mid to late-May defoliations, due to the morphological stage of the plant and the availability of soil moisture following defoliation. Grazing c ...
