Grain and Graze 3 - Grazing crops and frost

The trial aims to see the benefits of crop grazing at various times of sowing, to increase feed availability for stock, while retaining winter pastures and to find out whether crop grazing can be utilised in delaying the flowering window to reduce the impact of frost. It also aims to assess the impact of grazing times against the grain yield and quality across various species and varieties.

本试验旨在探究不同播种期实施作物放牧（crop grazing）的综合效益，在保留冬季牧场的前提下提升家畜饲料供给量；同时探明作物放牧能否通过延迟开花时段以缓解霜冻危害。此外，本试验还将评估不同放牧时机对多种物种与品种的籽粒产量及品质的影响。
