With rotational grazing, short grazing intervals allow to feed grass of good value : this method enhances animal performance but reduces grass production. Inversely, according to Frame and Hunt, (1971, J Br Grassld Soc, 2, 163-171) and Binnie and Chestnutt (1991, Grass and Forage Sci, 46, 343-350), longer intervals improve grass production but reduce grass value and quality. Furthermore, two advantages could be obtained with longer intervals : - a larger amount of grass available for grazing in summer, which could lower the acreage of grass to be cut for silage in spring; - a longer period of grazing without supplement of forage, but with possibly a lower milk production.
