Behavioural patterns of heifers under intensive and extensive continuous grazing on species-rich pasture in the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This study examines the effects of season and of two grazing intensities, namely extensive grazing (EG) and intensive grazing (IG), on the grazing behaviour of heifers on species-rich upland pasture in the Czech Republic. Ten or eight (IG), and six or four (EG) heifers were continuously stocked in two completely randomized blocks from June to late September in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2006 and 2007. Swards were maintained at a target height of 5 and 10 cm, respectively. Grazing, ruminating, resting, and otheractivities were monitored during 24 hour observations, and grazing, chewing and ruminating rates (per minute) were recorded. Daily behavioural patterns and the time budgets for particular activities were not significantly different between IG and EG heifers. However, IG heifers did spend more time grazing and slightly less time ruminating and resting than EG heifers. Other activity such as drinking, salt licking, comfort behaviour or social interaction was stable and there was no differe
