Growth and Grazing Behavior of Sheep in Woodland Pasture

The Estimation of Pasture Intake by the Grazing Sheep

The few estimates in the literature of the quantity of food eaten by the grazing sheep have involved calculations based on some component of the faeces. ’ The “apparent digestibility” of this component was first calculated with sheep fed on known amounts of cut pasture. Faeces were then collected from grazing sheep and the amount of the particular component in the faeces was used to predict the...

The behavior of sheep and goats co-grazing on pasture with different types of vegetation in the karst region.
