- Maintaining
Forage Quality by Intensive Pasture Management
- A speech by E. Ann Clark. (Includes a picture of her!)
Variation in the nutritional value of pasture herbage has been
identified as a key limitation to consistent, high levels of dairy
cow performance on pasture.
- Headquarters
of GRAZE-L
- With a photo of that well know Internet personality:
Noel Bridgeman. GRAZE-L is an International Forum
for the Discussion of Intensive Rotational Grazing and Seasonal
Dairying - developed by Noel Bridgeman (Taranaki Polytechnic) and
Michele Gale-Sinex (College of Agriculture and Life Sciences - UW
Madison)
- I believe Graze-L will be a major factor in renewing the USA
dairy industry. Please contribute information or provocative
questions to GRAZE-L.

- Thousands
of Bites per Day
- This PENpages articles greatly changed the way I think about
cows and grazing. Grass density and width of muzzle may be far,
far more important than we previously thought. Here is a quote to
tickle your interest: The rate of biting for dairy cows is in the
range 55-65/minutes. An Australian researcher suggested that the
maximum number of bites a Jersey cow could take per day was 36,000
- a cow grazing at 60 bites/minute for 510 minutes would take
30,600 bites in a day.

using his name, you will find a lot of good stuff about forages.
