Abstract
The objectives of this experiment are to determine the effects of different stocking rates, deferred and rotation grazing, and burning on livestock gains, productivity of pastures, and the vegetation itself. Results are reported here for the third year of the experiment. Only two years’ results on burning and understocking have been obtained. The results for 1949 and 1950 may be found in Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars 265 and 273, respectively.
