Individual animal liveweight and daily liveweight gain, and pasture herbage mass recorded in a dairy x beef grazing study comparing contrasting grazing methods: set-stocked versus cell-grazed on a temperate permanent pasture, 2018-2025.

This dataset provides measures of pasture herbage mass (commonly referred as ‘cover’), livestock performance (cattle liveweight and daily liveweight gain) and land productivity (liveweight gained per hectare) from a 8.25 ha replicated cattle grazing experiment comparing the effect of set-stocking versus cell grazing, where grazing intensity is higher but animals are moved more regularly. The data are from a 7-year study (2018-2025) in the SW of the United Kingdom.

This dataset supercedes an earlier version https://doi.org/10.23637/rothamsted.991v9. This current version corrects some minor errors to the 2018-2021 data and adds the 2022-2025 data.
