Herbage allowance and stocking method effect on grazing systems: Results of a long-term experiment.

ABSTRACT. - Sward management is critical for animal performance in pastoral environments. We evaluated the performance of sheep grazing Italian ryegrass pastures under factorial combinations of two stocking methods (SM) (continuous and rotational) and two herbage allowances (HA) (10% and 20% of LWT) over 9 years.
