Abstract
Grazing in grassland ecosystems has substantial ecological repercussions. Overgrazing impedes vegetation growth and can result in its decline, leading to alterations in plant community composition and soil compaction, thereby elevating the risks of water and nutrient loss. Furthermore, livestock excrement impacts soil nutrient cycling, potentially contributing to soil erosion and degradation. Grazing also exerts an influence on grassland biodiversity. Ensuring the vitality of grasslands necessitates responsible grazing management. This encompasses regulating grazing intensity, adopting rotational grazing practices, and implementing effective grassland rotation methods. Ongoing monitoring and educational efforts are indispensable. Rotational grazing entails the division of grazing areas, seasonal animal rotation, and designated rest periods, all of which foster vegetation growth, soil health, and ecological stability. Mixed grazing, featuring different livestock species, can enhance operational efficiency and ecological benefits. The success of mixed grazing hinges on considerations of compatibility, dietary requirements, and vigilant monitoring.
