Selective grazing by cattle on spatially and seasonally heterogenous rangeland in Sahel
The selective use by cattle of range resources in the Sahel was assessed in terms of quantity and nutritional quality of the herbage grazed and diet selected. Peak standing crop was 1951 kg ha -1 dry matter (DM) with 47.9 kg nitrogen (N) ha-1 and 7.4 kg phosphorus (P) ha -1. Esophageally fistulated...
