Body

There is a continuum of cattle grazing systems used in the rangelands, with increasing levels of intensification from continuous, through spelling and rotations, to cells. These aim to produce environmentally sustainable, productive, economic and socially acceptable outcomes. This paper comments on some of these issues and describes a research project investigating grazing systems in the beef cattle industry in northern Australia.
