Other claims from this paper (1)

Recommendation Herbage mass of at least 1000 kg DM/ha at the beginning of lambing is needed at high stocking rates to limit production losses.

Influence of defoliation regime on herbage production and characteristics of intake by dairy cows as affected by grazing intensity

E. S. KRISTENSEN Grass and Forage Science 1988. doi:10.1111/j.1365-2494.1988.tb02149.x

Other claims from this paper (10)

Intervention effect Herbage growth and yield were similar under severe grazing and cutting.
Intervention effect Herbage quality and leaf production were highest under severe grazing.
Intervention effect Severe grazing had a less marked seasonal pattern of herbage growth.
Observation Herbage intake per cow was 111 kg OM per day under severe grazing.
Intervention effect Herbage intake was proportionately higher under lax grazing with cutting than under severe grazing.
Observation About 50 percent of herbage yield at lax grazing with cutting was harvested by cutting (value as written, 050).
Association Selectivity by cows was associated with the nutrient content before defoliation and with the degree of defoliation.
Mechanism Herbage utilization was depressed by reduced green leaf content and increased reproductive development.
Method / resource Height measurements gave more accurate herbage intake estimates than organic matter disappearance.
Recommendation Good utilization by grazing can be obtained if sward height does not exceed 250 mm at any time.

Nitrogen concentrations in the cell wall and lignocellulose of smooth homegrass herbage*

M. A. SANDERSON; W. F. WEDIN Grass and Forage Science 1989. doi:10.1111/j.1365-2494.1989.tb01922.x

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer increased total N concentration in smooth bromegrass herbage dry matter.
Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer increased N concentrations in the neutral-detergent fibre and acid-detergent fibre of herbage.
Intervention effect Most of the increase in total N concentration occurred in the neutral‐detergent soluble portion of herbage.
Intervention effect When NDFN and ADFN were expressed on a total N basis, N fertilizer had no effect.
Intervention effect N fertilizer did not affect available fibre N.
Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer did not affect smooth bromegrass herbage quality.
Observation The average available fibre N concentration of smooth bromegrass herbage was 93 g kg-1 total N.
