Coupled with the ever-changing rainfall pattern, this management practice requires precision. Roughage forms the basis of livestock production as it is the most economical, efficient way of feeding. It is the farmer’s duty to ensure that the veld is in a productive, healthy state and that it is sustainable. The implemented grazing system should be veld and cattle orientated. Before grazing management can be understood, the physiological response of plants during drought must be understood.en© Plaas MediaGrazingDroughtManagementLivestockArticle
