Effects of livestock breed and grazing intensity on biodiversity and production in grazing systems. 1. Nutritive value of herbage and livestock performance (2007, background): “An experiment with growing heifers on an unfertilized upland pasture in the Czech Republic ( Pavlu et al., 2005 ) did show that grazing at a high stocking rate to maintain a sward height of 5 cm had somewhat lower individual LWG and a markedly higher live weight gain per ha than a lower stocking rat”
Restoration of grazing management and its effect on vegetation in an upland grassland (2007, background): “This is in accordance with several previous studies showing that short grass A. capillaris (CRS strategy, Grime 1987) is often promoted by grazing in low productive grasslands (e.g. Hellström et al. 2003; Louault et al. 2005; Pavlů et al. 2006a).”
Short-term management and stocking rate effects of grazing sheep on herbage quality and productivity of Inner Mongolia steppe (2009, result): “Since short-term effects of stocking rate on NDF and ADF were low and inconsistent between years, corresponding to findings of Pavlu et al. (2006), NDF and ADF content of plant communities of the Inner Mongolia typical steppe as an indicator for overgrazing is not supported by the present data.”
