Interaction of Plant Species Diversity on Grazing Behavior and Performance of Livestock Grazing Temperate Region Pastures (2007, background): “Grazing animals play a key role in altering plant species diversity in grass lands (Rook and Tallowin, 2003); however, little research has evaluated the effects of plant species diversity on animal performance.”
Effects of livestock breed and grazing intensity on biodiversity and production in grazing systems. 4. Effects on animal diversity (2007, background): “In particular, targeted experiments in a grassland context are lacking (Rook and Tallowin, 2003; Rook et al., 2004).”
Effects of livestock breed and grazing intensity on biodiversity and production in grazing systems. 1. Nutritive value of herbage and livestock performance (2007, background): “This could have an effect on the structure of pastures and the related biodiversity ( Rook and Tallowin, 2003 ).”
Factors and processes affecting plant biodiversity in permanent grasslands. A review (2011, unknown): “Removal of vegetation allows light to reach the lowest vegetation layers and the soil surface, triggering competition for resources, such as the light (Rook and Tallowin 2003).”
