Food partitioning between the Mara (Dolichotis patagonum) and the introduced hare (Lepus europaeus) in the Monte desert, Argentina por Bonino, Never Antonio, Sbriller, Alicia, Manacorda, Marcela M., Larosa, Francisco

“…However, annual and perennial grasses and forbs were also foraged, especially in spring. Though a trophic niche overlap of about 50% was calculated, it remains doubtful if the introduced hare has diminished the mara population.…”

Effects of African elephant (Loxodonta africana) on forage opportunities for local ungulates through pushing over trees por Wong, Janson

Determinants of grassland primary production in seasonally-dry silvopastoral systems in Central America por Rusch, G.M., Zapata, P.C., Casanoves, F., Casals, P., Ibrahim, M., DeClerck, Fabrice A.J.

“…Trees reduced the standing biomass of graminoids and increased forb biomass; thus, the effect of trees on grassland ANPP appears in part to respond to changes in grassland composition. …”

Efecto de la fertilización nitrógeno-fosfatada sobre el crecimiento otoño-invernal y la absorción de fósforo en tepes de un pastizal natural. por Mendoza, R.E, Cogliatti, D.H, Collantes, M.B, Kade, M.

“…The boxes were harvested at 56, 92 and 134 days after the fertilization, and plant cover was divided in five fractions: Gaudinia fragilis-Lolium multiflorum, Paspalum dilatatum-Stenotaphrum secundatum, legumes, forbs and graminoids. The fertilization with both nutrients increased the proportion of Gaudinia-Lohum and decreased that of the other fractions. …”

Effects of aqueous smoke solutions and heat on seed germination of herbaceous species of the Sudanian savanna-woodland in Burkina Faso por Dayamba, Sidzabda Djibril, Sawadogo, L., Tigabu, M., Savadogo, P., Zida, D., Tiveau, D., Oden, P.C.

“…In the present study, six different concentrations of smoke solution were tested on 13 herbaceous species by soaking the seeds for 24 h. The germination of a forb species, Borreria scabra, was significantly stimulated (p < 0.05) by the smoke treatment while that of the annual grass species, Euclasta condylotricha, was significantly inhibited (p < 0.05) by 100% smoke solution treatment. …”

Managing local fodder species for a competitive gender-sensitive goat value chain: achievements and lessons learnt from Climate-Smart Villages in northern Ghana por Avornyo, Franklin K., Zougmoré, Robert B., Partey, Samuel T.

“…The development of a multispecies fodder bank that concentrates preferred species on the same farm management unit alongside forbs, grasses and fast-growing fodder legumes was then identified and initiated for ensuring sustainable all-year-round fodder and propagule availability for small ruminant producers and traders against increased future demand for meat. …”

Forage selection overlap between co-occurring introduced ungulates: insights for conservation management of a Sub-Antarctic Island por Salom, Amira, Borrelli, Laura Beatriz, Testoni, Daniel, Ramos, Diego P., Raya Rey, Andrea, Biganzoli, Fernando

“…Diet composition was similar between species, including a wide range of vascular plants and two groups of non-vascular plants, though both were dominated by a few species of shrubs and forbs. Nonetheless, both species select grasses, predominantly found in marine tussock grasslands, and trees mainly found as seedlings and sapling in forests and stunted trees in wetlands. …”

Impact of stocking rate on species diversity and composition of a subtropical grassland in Argentina por Pizzio, Rafael Mario, Herrero Jáugueri, Cristina, Pizzio, Mariano, Oesterheld, Martin

“…Low stocking rate maintained a fairly constant relative cover of erect and prostrate grasses throughout the experiment, whereas intermediate and high stocking rate treatments were gradually and consistently enriched in prostrate grasses and forbs. These effects occurred simultaneously with drastic inter‐annual changes likely driven by annual precipitation. …”

Utilization of shrubs for forage and shelter by Marsh Deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) in Jataí Ecological Station, Brazil : an analysis of stable carbon isotopes and of GPS tracking... por Orrell, Linda

“…However, it is not possible to tell from this type of analysis if the browse ingested consists of forbs or shrubs and if the marsh deer also feed on aquatic plants. …”

The performance of West African Dwarf does and their kids at various stocking densities on stylo-based pasture in the subhumid zone of Nigeria por Iji, P.A., Umunna, N.N., Alawa, J.P., Ikwuegbu, O.A.

“…There were significant changes in the content of legume and forbs in response to variations in stocking density. …”

Resilience of soils and vegetation subjected to different grazing intensities in a semi-arid rangeland of Kenya por Mworia, J.K., Mnene, W.N., Musembi, D.K., Reid, Robin S.

“…The relative cover of forbs in the 4X treatments increased more than in the other treatments, while the cover of perennial grasses did not recover in the 4X treatments after the rest period. …”

Seasonal changes in habitat use and behavior of the threatened Pampas meadowlark Leistes defilippii por Álvarez, Agustín Gabriel, Cozzani, Natalia Carolina, Zalba, Sergio Martín, Tizon, Francisco Rodrigo

“…The species was absent in sites with higher bare ground cover and lower cover of >30 cm vegetation, and with high proportions of forb, shrub or exotic grass species. In those areas where the Pampas meadowlark was present during the breeding season, its abundance was higher where the grassland was entirely dominated by native grasses, and abandoned another site when the grassland became dominated by introduced plant species, after the breeding period. …”

Assessment of herbaceous vegetation species composition growing around Kleinkopje opencast coal mine, Mpumalanga Province, South Africa por Mangwane, M., Madakadze, I.C., Nherera-Chokuda, F.V., Dube, Sikhalazo, Mndela, M., Tjelele, J., Pule, H.T.

“…Nineteen (19) grass species, some (07) forbs and (03) sedges were recorded. Therefore, Eragrostis curvula (31.5%) was the most frequent on the natural veld, followed by Cynodon dactylon (28.36%) and Panicum maximum (22.25%) on the rehabilitated. …”

Effects of fodder banks on growth and survival of West African Dwarf goats under village conditions in subhumid Nigeria por Ikwuegbu, O.A., Tarawali, G., Rege, J.E.O.

“…In the wet season (August-October) goats were either tethered on natural pasture (NP) or were free-ranging on fodder banks (FB) of Stylosanthes spDuring the dry season, all animals were free-ranging on natural pasture (NP), forbs, crop residues or household wastes. Birth weight was affected (P<0.05) by year and season of birth, sex of kid and birth type. …”
