Seasonal changes in nutrient intake of grazing beef cows on an alpine pasture in Japan
Alpine woodland pastures or agro‐forests in Japan have served as a basis for beef cattle grazing.In these areas, grazing should be established as an extensive system using native forage species.However,data regarding diet composition, intake,and digestibility by grazing cattle under these systems are extremely limited.Information concerning seasonal changes in forage quality,when coupled with estimates of intake and digestibility,will provide a foundation for nutritional management of grazing cattle.
