Productivity of grasslands under continuous and rotational grazing
In the Netherlands, rotational grazing, with grazing periods of 2 to 5 days, is the most common grazing system at present. In contrast with other countries of North-western Europe, the continuous grazing system is used here only to a limited extent. However, the results of numerous comparative trials at high nitrogen fertilization levels and high stocking rates, carried out in the 1970's, suggest that there is no significant difference in animal production between the two grazing systems.Experiments were carried out to determine the physiological and environmental limits to herbage production...
