Observational analysis showed improved forage accumulation in grazed pastures, indicating sustainable management for soil health.

Forage accumulation increased by approximately 500 kg ha−1 in grazed pastures, improving productivity over time.
Ryegrass was either mechanically harvested or grazed, with no impact on soil physical properties observed between methods.
Organic carbon concentration was greater in grazed areas, suggesting enhanced soil health under moderate grazing conditions.
Four years of grazing did not impair soil quality or productivity of forage and subsequent crops, indicating sustainability.

Souza et al. (2025) studied this question.
