We tested the hypothesis that improving sward structure through adjustments in forage
allowance results in greater forage intake and live weight (LW) gains by beef cattle and …

Context Improved knowledge of the quality of the diet ingested by grazing cattle requires
measurement of the diets selected, including in native pasture rangeland. Aims The goal of …

The accurate prediction of feed intake is the most important information required to assess
the feed conversion efficiency of individual grazing animals. The objective of this study was …

Stockpiling forage (ie, deferring grazing) is one way to provide forage for livestock during
intervals of low pasture growth, but there are trade-offs as nutrient content declines with …

Livestock production in southern South America heavily relies on extensive native
grasslands, characterized by high plant species diversity, which makes estimating forage …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the adequacy of the Pampa Corte model associated to
an in vitro gas technique as a tool for predicting dry matter (DM) intake and digestibility by …

Nutritional assessment of grazing ruminants, particularly on natural heterogeneous
rangelands, remains a challenge for researchers and technicians. The aims of this study …

The animal performance on pasture is directly correlated to canopy structure since this
influences the herbage consumption. This study was evaluated the effects of four pre …
