EFFECTS OF STOCKING RATE ON QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF AVAILABLE FORAGE IN A SOUTHERN MIXED GRASS PRAIRIE Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Quantified the long-term (25 yr) effects of heavy (HC) and moderate (MC) rates of stocking on quantity and quality of forage available at a range on the E edge of the Texas Rolling Plains. The greater variation among years in cow/calf production in the HC treatment is primarily because forage availability in the HC treatment is less than in the MC treatment. -from Authors
