Sward structure and patterns of defoliation of signal grass (Brachiaria decumbens) pastures under different cattle grazing intensities
The effects of 3 different stocking rates (1, 2 and 3 cows/ha/yr) on sward structure and the amount and pattern of live leaf defoliation were studied at different hierarchical levels within swards of signal grass (Brachiaria decumbens ) pastures. Permanently marked plants and tillers were followed n...
