Never get stocking rate nor stocking density confused with the other.
Within each set of 4 pastures, one of the following grazing treatments was randomly assigned each pasture: rotationally stocked (8 paddocks) at a low, medium, or high stocking rate and continuously stocked at a moderate stocking rate.
Brazilian cattle-ranching, which occupies 209m hectares, is staggeringly unproductive, with an average stocking rate of less than a head of cattle per hectare.
Stocking rate was 25 fish/tank.
Stocking rate did not affect reproductive success.
Standing forage and stocking rate were estimated from biomass data.
Species richness in uplands increased with stocking rate and time, but richness decreased with stocking rate in lowlands.
However, increasing stocking rate decreased the rates of SOC changes at all sites.
In 1999 the P application and stocking rate were altered, such that all plots now had the same stocking rate (3,300 kg stock ha−1).
Measures of penetration resistance, aggregate stability, and bare ground were different across EHTs regardless of stocking rate, but did not interact with stocking rate.
Milk production per cow was improved at the higher stocking rate for bermudagrass but was reduced at the higher stocking rate for peanuts.
