Sustainable grazing management in rangelands: Over a century searching for a silver bullet
(Elsevier Science, 2019-11-01)
Rangelands represent 91% of the surface devoted to livestock production and a high proportion of them are exposed to some sort of degradation. Considerable research interest has been centered in the effect of grazing ...
Variation of grazing‐induced vegetation changes across a large‐scale productivity gradient
(Wiley, 2014-01)
Questions: Does the magnitude of grazing‐induced changes in species composition vary with habitat productivity? How does the sign and magnitude of grazing effects on species richness and beta‐diversity change with increasing ...
Frequent handling of grazing beef cattle maintained under the rotational stocking method improves temperament over time
(Csiro Publishing, 2018-01-01)
Our aims were to assess the effects of handling frequency on temperament evolution in cattle kept under rotational stocking method (RSM), as well as to compare the temperament of animals maintained under rotational versus ...
Grazing increases below-ground biomass and net primary production in a temperate grassland
(Springer, 2015-07)
Background and aims: Grazing can affect the stock and flow of C between above and below-ground vegetation layers. Components of below-ground stratum are one of the less studied. The goals of this research were: 1) to ...
The impact of livestock grazing on the spatial pattern of vegetation in north-eastern Patagonia, Argentina
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-05)
Background: The occurrence of shrub patches, alternating with either bare soil or low herbaceous cover, is a common feature in arid and semi-arid shrublands throughout the world. This patchy pattern of vegetation may result ...
Comportamento ingestivo de bovinos mantidos em pastos de Brachiaria brizantha cv. Xaraés manejado em diferentes alturas de pastejo
(Univ Estadual Londrina, 2013-01-01)
This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of grazing heights on daytime behavioral activities of Nellore beef cattle in the rainy season. The experimental area was 12 hectares divided into paddocks of one hectare ...
Produção e comportamento animal em pastagem natural manejada sob pastoreio rotativo – análise conjunta de experimentos
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilZootecniaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em ZootecniaCentro de Ciências Rurais, 2018-03-09)
The aim of this work was to study, through a joint analysis of experiments, the effects of
rotational grazing, using rest intervals based on duration of leaf expansion of native grasses, on
the primary and secondary ...
Characterization of grazing bifurcation in airfoils with control surface freeplay nonlinearity
(European Assoc Structural Dynamics, 2014-01-01)
A variety of nonlinear features is obtained from aeroelastic systems with discontinuous nonlinearity motivates investigations that may support future applications in controls design, flutter prediction problems, and energy ...
