Publication Date: | 2009 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/5688 | Abstract: | This study reveals the potential for GPS tracking in the grazing industry. By monitoring the locations and movement of livestock, times of peak grazing activity can be identified and the can in turn produce maps of preferred grazing areas. Eventually these data may be used to produce maps of pasture utilisation and provide site specific fertiliser recommendations for the grazing industry. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | GrasslandNSW 2009: 24th Annual Conference of the Grassland Society of NSW: The grass is greener, Taree, Australia, 5th - 6th August, 2009 | Source of Publication: | The grass is greener: Proceedings of the 24th Annual Conference of the Grassland Society of NSW, p. 124-125 | Publisher: | Grassland Society of NSW | Place of Publication: | Orange, Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 070299 Animal Production not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 830301 Beef Cattle | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/28885041 http://grasslandnsw.com.au/blog/?page_id=185 |
