The effect of different grazing systems on botanical composition, diversity and productivity of permanent pasture
Original language description
Two types of grazing systems are common in the Czech Republic: continuous grazing and rotational grazing with 2 ? 4 grazing cycles from May to October. The effect of the two grazing systems on botanical composition, sward type, plant species diversity and production of a Festuceto-Trisetetum (Cynosurion alliance) pasture sward was examined at an altitude of 650 m a. s. l. from 2000 ? 2008 in South Bohemia. A differentiation of Festuceto-Trisetetum to Festuceto-Dactylidetum, Dactylideto-Agrostidetum andPoaetum swards was observed for rotational and continuous grazing. Rotational grazing with a lower frequency (2 grazing cycles) increased the dominance of grasses, while the higher grazing frequency (4 grazing cycles) as well as continuous grazing increased the dominance of herbs. The highest species diversity (Simpson´s index ? D) was observed under rotational grazing with three grazing cycles (D 12.80). Higher biomass production (P0.01) was recorded for rotational than for continuous g
