Uittreksel
Die Valleibosveld besit ‘n opgehoopte voerreserwe waarvan slegs ‘n klein persentasie werklik beskikbaar is vir die weidende dier vir produksiedoeleindes. Resultate dui daarop dat ten einde die produksiepotensiaal te verhoog, enige veldbenuttingsprogram rondom lang rusperiodes gebou moet word. Grasse lewer egter ‘n betekenisvolle bydrae tot die hoeveelheid benutbare materiaal en vervul ‘n belangrike rol ten opsigte van dierevoeding. Gesien vanuit ‘n diere‐produksie oogpunt, lewer die kombinasie van gras plus bos groot moontlikheide om produksie per eenheidsoppervlakte te verhoog.
Abstract
The Valley Bushveld has an accumulated fodder reserve of which only a small percentage is really available to the grazing animal for production purposes. Results indicate that to increase the production potential of browse any utilization program should be constructed around long rest periods. However, grasses make an important contribution to the utilizable, material and play an important role with regard to livestock nutrition. Viewed in terms of animal production the combination of grass plus browse presents a large potential to increase production per unit area.
