• Forage Legumes for Grazing and Conserving in Ruminant Production Systems (2015, background): “In contrast, livestock that are used to forage legumes generally tend to try and select a mixture of both grass and legumes (Newman et al., 1992; Provenza et al., 2003).”
• The role of natural plant products in modulating the immune system: An adaptable approach for combating disease in grazing animals☆ (2010, background): “at this time is to provide animalswith a variety of biochemically diverse plant species, allow them to learn about the cost/benefits of specific foods based on the consequences of those foods to the animal’s internal environment, and enable the transfer of this knowledge across generations (Provenza”
• Identification and Creation of Optimum Habitat Conditions for Livestock (2005, background): “This selection process is based on hypothetical foraging goals (Senft et al. 1987), such as a reducing travel effort, increasing nutrient capture rate, maintaining body temperature, and continuing the interaction of satiety and variety (Provenza et al. 2003).”
• Experience Influences Diet Mixing by Herbivores: Implications for Plant Biochemical Diversity (2004, background): “Thus, animals in the same environment may follow different ‘‘foraging paths’’ depending on their past foraging histories, and the greater the numbers and kinds of alternatives, the greater the possible food combinations that can yield a balanced diet for each individual (Provenza et al. 2003).”
• An update on the nutrition of dairy sheep grazing Mediterranean pastures (2008, background): “This intensive (short duration) rotational management (Provenza et al., 2006) could be realized through the esearch 77 (2008) 93–112”
• Impacts of spatial patterns in pasture on animal grazing behavior, intake, and performance (2007, methodology): “Provenza et al. (2003, 2006) consider the implications of different grazing methods for the way in which ani-”
• Mechanisms linking plant species richness to foraging of a large herbivore (2010, background): “It is possible that herbivores will eat less of a single species diet than amixed species diet because of monotonous flavour and nutrient or toxin limitation (Provenza 1996; Provenza et al. 2003).”
