The Utilization of Smooth Bromegrass (Bromus inermis) under Rotational and Strip Grazing Systems of Pasture Management. I. Animal and Pasture Production

Two efficient systems of grazing management were compared during 1953 and 1954. A practical system of utilizing electric fencing for strip grazing has been described. Total utilization of a single species grass pasture (Bromus inermis) at a moderate level of production was only slightly more efficient when strip grazing was employed than when conventional rotational grazing was used. Nearly all the potential production from a pasture of this type was utilized under a good system of rotational grazing.
