Livestock grazing behaviour in large Mallee paddocks

The integration of cropping and grazing remains a major management challenge in the Mallee. Technology such as portable fencing systems and virtual fencing potentially offer a solution to improve grazing management in large Mallee paddocks with high soil variability. However, to effectively design and deploy these innovative grazing techniques, the grazing behaviour of livestock in these paddocks needs to be understood and quantified.

农牧结合模式在马利（Mallee）地区仍是一项主要的管理挑战。诸如便携式围栏系统与虚拟围栏在内的技术，有望为改善土壤变异性较高的大型马利牧场地块的放牧管理提供解决方案。然而，若要高效设计并部署这类创新放牧技术，就需要对这类牧场地块中牲畜的放牧行为进行深入理解与量化分析。
