Additional field(s): Environment & Ecology
English term or phrase: grazing pressure
Definition from IFAD:
The relationship between the number of animal units or forage intake units and the weight of forage dry matter per unit area at any point in time; an animal-to forage relationship. May be expressed as animal units or forage intake units to forage mass (animal units/forage mass at a specific time).

Example sentence(s):
  • An optimum grazing pressure is one in which available forage matches animal needs; this is analogous to the quantity of forage offered daily to animals in confinement when rations are balanced. The Pennsylvania State University
  • The different grazing pressures were obtained through different stocking rates, adjusted every 21 d according to forage mass, predicted forage production rate, and an estimated forage allowance of 10, 15 and 20 kg dry matter (DM) heifer-1 d-1 for high, medium, and low pressures, respectively. American Society of Agronomy
  • Stocking rate and annual average grazing pressure (with or without account for feral animals) did not appear to be, in themselves, good indicators of sustainability. Rather, the sustainability of different areas/systems and the impacts on sustainability of changes in management, e.g. stocking rates, may be assessed better through calculating year-to-year variability of the feed base, and periods of critical grazing pressure. cababstractsplus.org

càrrega ramadera


Definition from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona:
La càrrega ramadera es descriu com la quantitat d’Unitats de Bestiar Major (UBM) per unitat de superfície farratgera que existeix en una determinada àrea (Paladines, 1992) en un moment o durant un temps determinat (Ohlenbusch, 1994).

Example sentence(s):
  • La càrrega ramadera mitjana per hectàrea és bastant baixa, 0,2 UR/ha, tot i que si s’elimina la superfície forestal, l’índex augmenta considerablement passant a 1 UR/ha (taula 2). - Departament de Ciència Animal i dels Al  
  • Respectar les càrregues ramaderes màximes i mínimes, en zones de rostolls i subproductes pasturables. Càrrega ramadera mínima: 0,1 UBM/ha. Càrrega ramadera màxima: 0,4 UBM/ha. No superar la càrrega ramadera de l'explotació fixada al Pla de gestió de l'explotació, durant els anys que duri el compromís. - Generalitat de Catalunya  
  • - El càlcul de les càrregues ramaderes s’ha establert a partir de la informació proporcionada pels ramaders, nombre i tipus de bestiar en la Vall, i de la cartografia quant a superfície de pastures accessibles pel bestiar en les unitats pastorals. Les càrregues ramaderes es donen en animal/ hectàrees; però per poder fer una comparació de les càrregues segons el tipus d’animal, s’utilitza la Unitat de Bestiar Gros (UBG), en lloc d’animal i s’introdueix el factor temps. - Universitat de Lleida
