FAO to study optimum grass use

A new project by the FAO and partners aims to optimise the grass use by developing a practical method to predict pasture intake of ruminants grazing heterogeneous pastures and rangeland.

Optimisation of the utilisation of grassland/ranch-land by livestock growers would therefore have a direct impact on the animal productivity and food security. But what can be done to achieve this?
