Diet Selection by Cattle under High- Intensity Low-Frequency, Short Duration, and Merrill Grazing Systems
A study was conducted to evaluate standing crop of forage and cattle diets for a ‘I-pasture high-intensity low-frequency (HILF) grazing system, and a ‘I-pasture short-duration grazing (SDG) system on the same area. A epasture, 3-herd (Merrill) deferred rotation grazing system was sampled as a standard for comparison. Standing crop of forage was highest for the HILF grazing system compared to th...
متن کاملMineral Concentrations of Cool-Season Pasture Forages in North Florida during the Winter-Spring Grazing Season: I. Macro Minerals
Concentrations of selected macro minerals (Ca, P, Na, K, and Mg) were determined from coolseason annual grass pasture forages over four consecutive late fall-winter-spring grazing seasons (2001-2005). Forage samples were taken from eight experimental pastures used in beef cattle grazing trials. Two, 2-yr experiments were conducted; animal and pasture data were reported previously (Myer and Blou...
متن کاملEffects of short duration and high-intensity, low-frequency grazing systems on forage pro- duction and composition
Research was conducted at the Sonora Research Station during a 4-year period (1984 to 1988) to measure differences in herbaceous vegetation response between two ‘I-pasture l-herd grazing systems. Grazing tactics were short duration (SDG-7 days graze, 42 days rest) and high intensity, low frequency (HILF-14days graze, 84 days rest). Stocking rate for the 2 treatments was 10.4 ha/auy. Total above...
متن کاملImpacts of Rotational Grazing on Soil Carbon in Native Grass-Based Pastures in Southern Australia
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 by allowing vegetation to recover after short intense grazing periods. This project sought to assess whether soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks ...
متن کاملRestoring Tallgrass Prairie and Grassland Bird Populations in Tall Fescue Pastures With Winter Grazing
Restoration of grasslands dominated by tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix [Scop.] Holub) to native tallgrass prairie usually requires burning, herbicides, or reseeding. We tested seasonal grazing by livestock in winter, combined with cessation of fertilization, as a restoration tool for modifying the competitive dynamics among herbaceous plants to restore tallgrass prairie communities in southeas...
