Grazing management involve manipulating the grazing animal, the forage plant, and the soil complex to obtain specific ecological and economic objectives. The successful grazing manager must thoroughly understand how plants grow and reproduce if he wants to understand how grazing animals affect plants and plant regrowth. In addition, managers must understand the grazing animal, specifically its nutritional needs at critical points of the production cycle and its behavior.
