Build It and They Will Come...to Admire Your Grazing System. From the Proceedings of The First Interprovincial Range Conference in Western Canada.
Discusses North Dakota State University research comparing the effects of two grazing systems (short duration and repeated seasonlong) on herbage production and disappearance, long-term plant community changes and livestock ... -
Complementary Rotation Grazing System in Western North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 1986) -
Cow and Calf Performance as Affected by Grazing Management
Different grazing treatments cause changes in the quantity of plant growth and the quality of herbage; this study compares cow and calf accumulated weight gain, rate of weight gain per acre, and rate of weight gain per day ... -
Cow and Calf Performance on Pasture-Forage Types during the Fall, mid October to mid November
Report on research to evaluate fall grazing effects on cow and calf weight gains separately from animal performance during the other portions of the grazing season. -
Cow-Calf Grazing Demonstrations Show Potential for Range Fertilization
(North Dakota State University, 1977) -
Determining an Optimum Stocking Rate for the Missouri Coteau of North Dakota
This study compares the effects of five different grazing intensities on the plant community, livestock performance and economic returns. -
Doing the Math: Calculating a Sustainable Stocking Rate
Useful information defining commonly used rangeland terminology (AUM, stocking rate, and carrying capacity) and providing formulas for calculation and practice worksheets. -
Effects of Dormant Season Grazing on Herbage Production and Plant Growth
A study to determine the impacts of winter grazing on herbage production, growth rate of dominant grass species, and changes in plant species composition using various levels and combinations of winter and summer use. -
Effects of Fall Grazing on Grass-Leaf Height
Summarizes the results of a study conducted from 1958 to 1962 at the Dickinson Research Extension Center by H. Goetz and previously published (1963) as his master's degree thesis. Indicated that fall grazing is detrimental ... -
Effects of Swathed Forage Type on Intake and Total Tract Digestion
Research results assessing the effects of swathed forage and protein supplementation on dietary intake and digestibility of cows. -
Evaluating Beef Cow Performance: Comparing Crested Wheatgrass/legume, Big Bluestem, and Foxtail Millet in Swath Grazing
Comparison study of cool-season perennial, warm-season perennial, and warm-season on beef cow performance and economics. -

Grazing Systems for the Mixed Grass Prairie of North Dakota.
Results of a comparison study of three different grazing systems: season long, rotational and short term grazing. -
Increasing Rhizosphere Fungi and Improving Soil Quality with Biologically Effective Grazing Management
This report compares the effects of traditional grazing management to twice-over rotation grazing management on livestock performance, herbage biomass, and rhizosphere fungal populations on Northern Plains native rangeland.
