Behavioural mechanisms of intake rate by heifers grazing swards of contrasting structures (2014, background): “, 2001), resulting in a daily herbage intake reduction (Barrett et al., 2001; Baumont et al., 2004).”
Management targets for maximising the short-term herbage intake rate of cattle grazing in Sorghum bicolor (2012, background): “As a consequence of herbage depletion, the foraging dynamics are altered and the short-term herbage intake is reduced (Barret et al., 2001; Baumont et al., 2004).”
Grazing behaviour, herbage intake and animal performance of beef cattle heifers on marandu palisade grass subjected to intensities of continuous stocking management (2012, background): “However, HI remained lower, probably because intake per bite normally has a larger influence on daily HI than BR (Hodgson 1985; Spalinger & Hobbs 1992; Parsons et al. 1994; Cosgrove 1997; Illius 1997; Baumont et al. 2004).”
