| description | Use when modelling the managed forage land livestock graze — pasture (improved/tame forage) and rangeland (native), divided into paddocks for rotational grazing. The grazing land-unit; the livestock counterpart of a crop field, its productivity a fertility/capacity measure. |

pasture — the managed forage land livestock graze
A pasture is managed land of forage that [[livestock]] [[grazing|graze]] — improved/tame forage or native rangeland (a sub-type, a field). It is divided into paddocks (rotational sub-units) the [[herd]] moves through ([[rotation]]). It is the livestock counterpart of a [[crop]] field: its forage productivity is a [[fertility]] / [[capacity]] measure (the carrying capacity in animal-units), raised by rest, [[manure]], and species mix.
Pasture is the land [[allocation]] of the grazing system — what the land × [[season]] [[bottleneck]] yields as forage rather than harvested [[crop]]. It is often a [[leases|leased]] resource priced per animal-unit-month.
Standards
- USDA-NRCS (pasture/rangeland management, carrying capacity); OSU / extension (pasture productivity)
- FAO (grazing land); Savory (holistic planned grazing)
Composes [[livestock]] · [[grazing]] · [[herd]] · [[crop]] · [[rotation]] · [[fertility]] · [[capacity]] · [[manure]] · [[allocation]] · [[season]] · [[bottleneck]] · [[leases]].
Law — [[law]]: pasture is the grazing land-unit whose forage productivity is a carrying-[[capacity]] measure (animal-units), bounded by the land × [[season]] [[bottleneck]] — the livestock counterpart of a [[crop]] field.
