Long-term and carryover effects of supplementation with whole oilseeds on methane emission, milk production and milk fatty acid profile of grazing dairy cows
(MDPI, 2021)
Research is ongoing to find nutritional methane (CH4
) mitigation strategies with persistent
effects that can be applied to grazing ruminants. Lipid addition to dairy cow diets has shown
potential as means to decrease ...
Effect of Two Heights and Three Intervals of Grazing on Stand of a Heavily Fertilized Star Grass PastureTítulo en español.
(University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez Campus Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
Use of fecal indices as a non-invasive tool for nutritional evaluation in extensive-grazing sheep
(MDPI, 2020)
Simple Summary To adequately manage ruminants in extensive grazing, it is important to have non-invasive techniques to evaluate their nutritional status. Some of these techniques are based on the use of fecal indicators, ...
Use of fecal indices as a non-invasive tool for ruminal activity evaluation in extensive grazing sheep
(MDPI, 2022)
Simple Summary The main objective of this work was to evaluate the degree of association that exists between three fecal indices (concentrations of 2,6 diaminopimelic acid, nitrogen, and phosphorus) and biomarkers of ruminal ...
Non-linear dynamics of litter decomposition under different grazing management regimes
(Springer, 2015-08)
Aims: To understand and model the dynamics of litter decomposition in a climatically seasonal region subject to different modalities of land pasture management. Methods: Decomposition was quantified through the litterbag ...
Structural characteristics and forage mass of Tifton 85 pastures managed under three post-grazing residual leaf areas
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2013-04-01)
The experiment was carried out on Cynodon spp cv. Tifton 85 pastures grazed by sheep under rotational stocking, with the objective of evaluating the structural characteristics as well as the forage mass of the pastures ...

Plant interactions balance under biotic and abiotic stressors: The importance of herbivory in semi-arid ecosystems
(Springer, 2020-10)
Biotic and abiotic stressors commonly co-occur in plant communities and influence interactions between plants. However, their combined effects on plant interactions have not been widely studied and are still unclear. Here, ...
Defoliation patterns and their implications for the management of vegetative tropical pastures to control intake and diet quality by cattle
(Wiley, 2016-09)
This study assessed the use of pasture attributes to control daily intake and diet quality during progressive defoliation on pastures of Axonopus catarinensis. Three consecutive 12‐day grazing treatments of progressive ...
Towards evenly distributed grazing patterns: Including social context in sheep management strategies
(PeerJ, 2016-06-21)
Background: A large proportion of natural grasslands around the world is exposed to overgrazing resulting in land degradation and biodiversity loss. Although there is an increasing effort in the promotion of sustainable ...
