The overall objective of Re-Livestock is to understand and mobilize adoption of innovative practices, applied cross-scale (animal, herd/farm, sector and region), to reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of livestock farming and to increase the capacity for dealing with climate change impacts, in order to ultimately increase the overall resilience of the livestock sector.
This project aims to study the effect of four grassland mixtures on the productivity, nutritive value and palatability of the grass. To this end, we measured before every grazing rotation the yield, the nutritive value, the tannin content and the botanical composition.
