can I develop better summer range for my cattle u sheep in places where it is not practical to reseed or to control brush?” Intensive management of summer grazing using rest rotation may be the answer Kart G Parker extension range specialist Utah State University explained “To do fids you stock each pasture heavily enough to force the livestock to graze aU of the usable plants in a short time Then you move the animals so that the range plants can rest and recover their vigor while then la still enough soil moisture to support plant growth” He noted that range research workers have obtained better gains on larger numbers of livestock in the same area by using such management “A key to efficient grazing management is to put the burden of grazing on all of the plants rather than a select few These sometimes called file “ice cream plants” an the ones livestock select and eat first They lean less desirable plants which become unpalatable and then to increase the crowd out the mon desirable kinds of forage plants "An efficiently designed rest rotation grazing system helps to overcome that problem It is one of the best means of developing mon summer grazing for Utah livestock Although intensive management might call for greater expenditures an efficient management plan will make a good return on the investment” the range specialist said Informational bulletins on this subject an available through the local county extension offices in Utah As fiie season for grazing green graas and getting good gains on cattle and sheep approaches ranchers ahould consider adoption of those systems that win work to their advantage through grater livestock gains improved range vegetation management and better prices He noted that fastest gains by range livestock an made upon the during the months of June and altitude— providing then is plenty of feed available for the animals Beginning in August as range plants begin to mature the rate of gain on livestock decreases Experimental evidence indicates that gains on certain classes of livestock might drop to sen and even turn into weight Inman by the end of Sentember The old idea of “hard fat” development during that time has been abandoned as an illusion by stockmen who keep accurate weights on their achuls during the grazing season The impression that animals “harden up" during file latter part of the summer grazing season probably stems from the fact that animals are actually losing weight Parker said He advised ranchers to consider the trend of gains on range livestock along with die trend of market prices to obtain some dues as to the best time to market their animals Jidy-depen- dhig g to "yellow anemia’ MIRACID could have saved it!
