Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIntroduction of the Pasture Plant Fescue (Festuca valesiaca) for the Improvement of Degraded Pastures in the Steppe Zone of KazakhstanMeldebekova Nurgul Alikhanovna, Seitbattalova Ainur Islamovna, Ainebekova Bakyt Alpysbaevna et al.This study presents the results of a comprehensive evaluation of Festuca valesiaca, a dominant perennial grass species widely used in steppe ecosystems for pasture improvement. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of native fescue species in enhancing productivity and resilience of degraded rangelands under arid conditions. However, breeding efforts for this species in Kazakhstan remain insufficiently developed. The research was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Impact of Changes in Forage Vegetation for Saiga (Saiga Tatarica) On Natural Pastures in The Steppe Zone of the West Kazakhstan RegionAmanay Myrzabayev, Zhanbolat Ibraibekov, Zhangeldi Ussenov et al.This study investigates the impact of recent climate changes and reduced anthropogenic pressure on the vegetation cover in the steppe regions of Russia and Kazakhstan, particularly focusing on the effects on saiga (Saiga tatarica) populations. By the late 1990s, a significant shift towards the dominance of grasses and the reduction of herbaceous plants in semi-arid and arid regions was observed, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 7 Feb 2026 · 1,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRotational Pasture Management for Ameliorating Productivity and Feed Value of Vegetation, Soil Quality, and Sustainability in Dry Steppe ZoneGani Stybayev, Meisam Zargar, Beibit Nasiyev et al.Over the past years, a farming system in the Akmola region of Kazakhstan has undergone significant changes: The average number of animals per farm and the use of external inputs have significantly enhanced while the diversity of farming practices has decreased, becoming similar to intensive farming. In this research, we evaluated the rotational pastures for increasing the productivity and feed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2025 · 4,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBotanical Composition and Yields of Forages in Natural Pastures Using Principal Component Analysis and Cluster Dendrogram in South Sulawesi, IndonesiaPurnama Isti Khaerani, Yunus Musa, Renny Fatmyah Utamy, Yasuyuki IshiiThis study aims to identify the composition and yields of forages in natural pastures using principal component analysis and cluster dendrogram in Gilireng and Majauleng subdistricts, Wajo regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Pasture plants were collected using 20 randomly sampled quadrats to observe the botanical composition and yields of forages.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePasture Productivity Depending on the Method of Pasture use in the Steppe Zone of Northern KazakhstanBalzhan Akhylbekova, Nurlan Serekpayev, Adilbek Nogayev, Bakhytbek ZhumabekUnsystematic grazing of animals and continuous use of pastures leads to their degradation and, accordingly, to a shortage of pasture forage for the production of competitive environmentally friendly livestock products. The proportion of productive grasses in grass covers is decreasing; therefore, there is an urgent need to preserve valuable plant species in pasture grass, restore the productivity of natural vegetation … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 3 Nov 2022 · 5,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Investigation of Biological Nitrogen Fixation in Critical Dryland PastureSyamsuddin Hasan, Budiman, Asmuddin Natsir et al.The aim of the study is to determine the production and growth of dwarf napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv.mott) integrated with siratro legumes (Macroptilium atropurpureum) contributing to the availability of preferred forage for ruminants on critical dryland. The study applied randomized block design consisted of 4 groups and 4 treatments; P0 consisted of 100% control Pennisetum purpureum cv.mott; P1 consisted … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 26 Jul 2019 · 7,937 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Use of Real Options Methodology to Pasturelands EvaluationA. Michailidis, F. Chatzitheodoridis, I. Mountousis, K. PapanikolaouThis study demonstrates the utility of the real options approach to pasturelands investment analysis. The main objectives are to discuss the real options theory and show how it can be adopted to model uncertainty and managerial flexibility in pasture management (enlargement plan) and investment. Secondly, we show how to calculate the option values of selected options that may be available … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,763 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance of Stocker Cattle Managed On Pastures Over-Seeded With Annual ForagesMichael Martinez, Daniela Brown, Sidney Garrison et al.The goal of this study was to determine the performance of stocker calves managed on permanent pastures over-seeded with winter and summer annuals. Twenty-one 7-month-old Angus calves (BW = 263 ± 24 kg) sourced from the university farm, were randomly assigned to three treatments. The treatments were: i) Grass Hay Only (GHO; Control; 5 calves), ii) Permanent Pasture Only (PPO; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Aug 2026 · 889 accessesView PDFCite
