ABSTRACT: The animal performance on pasture is directly correlated to canopy structure since this influences the herbage consumption. This study was evaluated effects of four pre-grazing heights (12, 20, 28 and 36 cm) Andropogon lateralis Ness intake feeding behavior steers in a natural grassland under intermittent stocking management, using same proportion defoliation (40% reduction height, i....
