Stocking method and terminology in grazing management: Evaluation of assertions from educational, outreach, and engagement programs

Abstract:

We revisited terminology and assertions about grazing management in general, but more specifically the choice of the stocking method, and considered their merit in the context of evidence from the literature, including a chapter entitled Prescribed Grazing on Pasturelands from a National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) literature synthesis published in 2012 (Nelson, 2012). We framed those assertions in the form of questions. Our objectives were to consider whether these often-stated assertions about grazing management were supported, refuted, or simply not adequately assessed by the body of scientific evidence and to help focus future discussion about the topic.
