  1. A model for predicting livemass gain from stocking rate and annual rainfall

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa • Authors: D.I. Bransby --- Department of Grassland Science,
    The relationship between livemass gain and stocking rate was established for young beef animals grazing kikuyu and Coastcross II pastures in each of five grazing seasons. The annual rainfall within these seasons ranged from 506 mm to 990 mm. Relationships...
  2. Productivity of one‐ and two‐year‐old steers grazing Coastcross II (Cynodon hybrid) at four stocking rates

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa • Authors: D.I. Bransby --- Department of Agronomy and Soils, United States of America
    Coastcross II pastures were continuously grazed with 1‐ or 2‐year‐old steers at stocking rates between 5.4 and 13.4 animals ha−1 in 1985–86 and 1986–87 at the Ukulinga research farm near Pietermaritzburg. In the first season there was no difference between...
