Intensive/controlled Grazing systems
Livestock and grass management practices that focus on increased levels of manager involvement, leading to increased productivity and the sustainability of the land. Managers practicing intensive grazing closely follow the interactions between plant, animal, soil and water. They determine where, when and what livestock graze and control animal distribution and movement. Other terms, related to both dairy and meat production, that fall under the category of Intensive/Controlled Grazing are: Rotational Grazing, Management Intensive Grazing (MIG), High-Intensity Low-Frequency Grazing (HILF), Time-Controlled Grazing (TCG), Holistic Range Management, Grass farming, Pasture-Based Farming, and Voisin Management Grazing.
