Except in situations where a high level of grazing management is already being practiced, any increase in the degree of grazing control will improve forage utilization as it is sold off the farm as livestock product. The effective and profitable utilization of grazed forage depends primarily on the degree to which the manager is able and/or willing to exercise control in determining when, where, and for how long animals graze. 3, record 2, English, - grazing%20control
