- W1585411324 abstract "Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition in Australia, Volume 13 (2001) The carrying capacity of extensive rangeland systems in semi–arid regions is difficult to determine due to fluctuations in available forage caused by variation in rainfall. To prevent land degradation caused by overgrazing, which cannot easily be reversed, a balance between forage supply and grazing pressure must be achieved. Stocking rate has a significant influence on animal production and on longer–term pasture condition (Hart et al. 1988) and determining the most appropriate rate and when to make adjustments in response to actual rainfall patterns are major challenges. Those decisions have major consequences for the profitability and sustainability of animal production from rangelands. A computer model was developed using daily inputs of rainfall and temperature to predict seasonal pasture and cattle production in Botswana. The effect of stocking rates on animal productivity and pasture condition in a good rainfall season and during years of low rainfall was then determined. Three stocking rates per ha, low (0.07 LSU), medium (0.20 LSU) and high (0.50 LSU), were evaluated under the rainfall regimes where LSU is a Botswana Livestock Unit defined as a 450 kg steer. Pasture production was high in a favourable rainfall season; reduction of stocking rate from high to low increased liveweight gain in steers and pasture on offer also increased, but liveweight gain per hectare Use of a computer model to determine carrying capacity under variable rainfall conditions in Botswana" @default.
