This study assessed the importance of spatial and temporal variation in plant quality and quantity for determining sustainable stocking rates in game, commercial and communal ranches in semi-arid savanna of the Northern Cape Province, South Africa, in wet and dry seasons over a two-year period. We focussed on variation in plant biomass, phosphorus (P), crude protein (CP) concentrations and dry matter digestibility as parameters most likely to affect sustainable stocking rates. Habitat type had greater effects on plant quality, plant biomass and species composition than management type. The commercially-managed area had the highest tree density in the rocky habitat and lower plant quality than other management types. All of these features indicate that land degradation is occurring on commercial ranches in spite of rotational grazing and lower stocking density than on communal ranches. We recommend that commercial ranchers should introduce a greater variety of stock and/or game to reduce selective grazing of certain plant species. Quality measures (CP and P) gave more conservative predictions of stocking density than biomass. In this region of the Northern Cape, seasonally-inundated pan habitats are particularly valuable in spite of low-standing crop because they have the highest year-round quality. Contrastingly, ranchers should only lightly stock open savanna habitats, in spite of high standing biomass, because they have low vegetation quality and may be particularly susceptible to degradation and invasion by poisonous and unpalatable plants. 相似文献

Herd dynamics of indigenous pigs were determined in a semi-arid farming area of Chirumanzu, Zimbabwe. Thirty-two pig herds
were monitored once every month for 12 months. Consequently, pig production potential (PPP) and pig production efficiency
(PPE) were computed for each month. Incidences of farrowing were higher in times of pig confinement (57%) than in times when
the pigs were free ranging (43%). About 23% of the farmers interviewed had access to irrigation. The mean pig herd size per
household was 3.3. The average litter size per farrowing was 7.7. Pigs were free ranging for most of the year and penned during
the rainy season. Herd sizes changed with month (P < 0.05). Farmers who had access to irrigation had higher (P < 0.05) herd
sizes, number of piglets and the number of adult pigs. Highest piglet numbers were observed during the rainy months. The number
of mature pigs contributing to pig production efficiency was low. Piglet mortality was the major cause of exits from the herd
and was higher in farmers with no access to irrigation facility (P < 0.05). The PPP was highest in farmers who had access
to irrigation (P < 0.05), except in June and July. The PPE was low and not affected by either month, village or access to
irrigation (P > 0.05). It can be concluded that pig production efficiencies were low and intervention strategies to improve
them need to be developed. 相似文献

The Nama-Karoo is the largest of the three biomes that comprise the semi-arid Karoo-Namib ecoregion of southern Africa. Large tracts of Nama-Karoo rangeland have been invaded by alien leguminous trees of the genus Prosopis. We assessed the impact of Prosopis invasion and clearing on vegetation cover in heavily grazed Nama-Karoo rangeland on two sheep farms in the Beaufort West district of the Western Cape province of South Africa. Our results suggest that, below critical threshold cover levels, Prosopis trees do not affect indigenous vegetation and add to overall rangeland vegetation cover. However, once Prosopis cover exceeds critical thresholds, the trees begin to negatively impact on indigenous vegetation (especially grasses) and overall vegetation cover. In addition, our data suggest that vegetation cover recovers after Prosopis clearing, being temporarily higher than pre-invasion levels possibly as a result of enhanced post-invasion soil fertility. Lastly, our results suggest that Prosopis trees reduce rangeland erosion potential at low cover and increase it after they exceed critical threshold cover. Information about thresholds of Prosopis impact can be used to direct clearing efforts for maximum benefit when resources are limited. 相似文献

The Nama-Karoo biome occupies 28% of South Africa’s land area. Alien leguminous trees of the genus Prosopis have invaded large tracts of Nama-Karoo rangeland. We evaluated the impact of Prosopis invasion and clearing on vegetation species composition and diversity (alien and indigenous species richness and cover) in Nama-Karoo rangeland on two sheep farms in the Beaufort West district of the Western Cape province of South Africa. Our results suggest that Prosopis invasion and clearing can significantly change Nama-Karoo rangeland species composition. Invasion and clearing appear to have no effect on alien species richness. Invasion, however, increases alien species cover, while clearing restores it to pre-invasion levels. In contrast, invasion reduces indigenous species richness while clearing restores it to pre-invasion levels. Invasion appears to have no effect on indigenous species cover. This lack of effect appears to be the serendipitous result of a site-specific trade-off between a decline in cover of grasses that are negatively affected by Prosopis invasion and a concomitant increase in the cover of positively affected grasses. Clearing increases indigenous species cover to above pre-invasion levels. The higher than usual indigenous species cover after clearing could be a transient legacy of Prosopis soil nutrient enrichment. 相似文献

The shrub Osteospermum sinuatum, an important fodder plant in Karoo rangelands, flowered after heavy rain in autumn, winter and spring. The number of flowers produced per bush was positively conelated with basal stem diameter and rainfall in the 12 weeks before anthesis. Flowering increased when neighbouring plants of all species were removed. Grazing during flowering and seed set, by sheep stocked at recommended densities, reduced potential seed set by as much as 90%. Birds, hares and small antelope consumed 10–50% of the flowers. Size‐class distributions indicated that little recent recruitment had taken place on a ranch where palatable plants were scarce and where O. sinuatum flower production was severely depressed by grazing sheep. 相似文献

The effects of methoctramine, a cardioselective muscarinic cholinergic antagonist, on heart rate and small intestinal motor activity were compared to those of the nonselective competitive muscarinic antagonist, atropine. Methoctramine or atropine, 6, 10, 30, 60 μg/kg, or sterile isotonic saline, was administered intravenously to six conscious dogs in cross-over studies. Methoctramine administration caused dose-dependent tachycardia without affecting intestinal motility, while atropine administration caused dose-dependent tachycardia accompanied by significant reductions in small intestinal motility. Additionally, methoctramine did not inhibit intestinal smooth muscle contractile activity initiated by the muscarinic agonist bethanechol, while atropine inhibited bethanechol-induced contractile activity in a dose-dependent manner. Calculated dosages of methoctramine and atropine required to produce a 50% increase in heart rate over baseline were 35.1 ± 5.3 and 39.5 ± 6.2 μg/kg, respectively. This dosage of atropine caused a 93 ± 13.9% reduction in intestinal motility. These findings suggest that selective muscarinic antagonists may be useful drugs for those veterinary patients in which nonselective muscarinic antagonists have the potential to produce untoward effects on intestinal motility. 相似文献

氮素在苜蓿产量累积与品质提升中发挥着重要作用,但其不合理添加不仅会造成资源浪费,还会加剧环境污染,且其添加效应因试验区域、添加模式和种植管理等因素不同存在较大差异。本研究通过整合已发表的相关田间试验数据,利用Meta分析方法定量研究了氮素添加对苜蓿产量与品质(粗蛋白含量、酸性和中性洗涤纤维含量)的效应及主要影响因素。结果表明,与不添加氮素相比,添加氮素可显著提高苜蓿产量与品质,其中产量和粗蛋白含量分别平均提高12.6%(置信区间9.0%~16.2%)和7.3%(置信区间4.1%~10.6%),酸性和中性洗涤纤维含量分别平均降低5.6%(置信区间3.5%~7.8%)和3.0%(置信区间1.0%~4.9%)。在甘肃,年平均气温<8℃和年平均降水量200~400 mm的地区,采用硝酸铵分次施肥及灌溉和播种量为26~30 kg·hm-2时,更有利于添加氮素对苜蓿产量和粗蛋白含量的提高效应及对酸性和中性洗涤纤维含量的降低效应;但适宜的施氮量及生长年限在产量与品质方面存在差异。该研究可为苜蓿生产力提升及氮营养高效利用提供参考。 相似文献
