Native Warm-Season Grasses: Naturally Adapted Productive Pastures
The series of severe droughts between 2007 and 2012 resulted in substantial decreases in cattle numbers – and enterprises – in our region. Some of the impact of these droughts may have been offset if producers in the region had reliable, drought-resilient summer forages. For all of the benefits of tall fescue, it was never meant to provide our summer forage. After all, it is a coolseason grass....
متن کاملImpacts of Rotational Grazing on Soil Carbon in Native Grass-Based Pastures in Southern Australia
Rotational grazing management strategies have been promoted as a way to improve the sustainability of native grass-based pasture systems. From disturbance ecology theory, rotational grazing relative to continuous grazing can increase pasture productivity by allowing vegetation to recover after short intense grazing periods. This project sought to assess whether soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks ...
متن کاملNative Warm-Season Grasses for Mid-South Forage Production
Vigorous Summer Growth Peak growth of these grasses occurs during summer. They break dormancy in late March and early April and then grow rapidly from mid-May through midsummer. In late summer, growth slows until fall dormancy, usually in October. The maturity dates of the various species vary somewhat, but all follow this pattern. They remain dormant through winter. Five Key Species While ther...
متن کاملTowards SMOS validation in south-eastern Australia
The upcoming Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission of the European Space Agency will be the first satellite dedicated to the measurement of soil moisture. It will measure soil moisture for the top 5 cm at a spatial resolution of 35 to 50 km. Comparison of the soil moisture data from SMOS with insitu monitoring network measurements across areas the size of a SMOS footprint will play a ...
متن کاملTicks on pastures and on two breeds of cattle in the Eastern Cape province, South Africa.
Many studies on the population dynamics of questing ticks on pastures and of parasitic ticks on cattle have been conducted. Few, however, have attempted to link the two in a single study. This study aimed to assess the population dynamics of questing ixodid ticks on pastures and of adult ticks on two breeds of cattle with different levels of susceptibility to tick infestation on the same pastur...
