Grassland responses to grazing: effects of grazing intensity and management system in an Inner Mongolian steppe ecosystem
Philipp Schönbach,Hongwei Wan,Martin Gierus,Yongfei Bai,K. Müller,L. Lin,Andreas Susenbeth,Friedhelm Taube +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the grazing-induced steppe degradation process and identified an efficient and sustainable grazing management system for the widely degraded Inner Mongolian typical steppe ecosystem.

Grazing behavior of sheep at different stocking rates in the Inner Mongolian steppe, China
TL;DR: Both, reduced feed intake and higher energy requirements for activity, will outweigh the expected profit from highly intensive grazing.

Effects of grazing and precipitation on herbage production, herbage nutritive value and performance of sheep in continental steppe
Philipp Schönbach,Hongwei Wan,Martin Gierus,Ralf Loges,K. Müller,L. Lin,Andreas Susenbeth,Friedhelm Taube +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of sheep grazing and precipitation on herbage and animal performance in a grazed steppe of Inner Mongolia were analyzed across a gradient of seven grazing intensities, and the results showed that the highest grazing intensity provides highest animal production per ha in the short term; however, this is not sustainable in the mid and long term because decreasing HP induces degradation processes.

Growth of sheep as affected by grazing system and grazing intensity in the steppe of Inner Mongolia, China
L. Lin,Uta Dickhoefer,K. Müller,C. Wang,T. Glindemann,Jun Hao,Hongwei Wan,Philipp Schönbach,Martin Gierus,Friedhelm Taube,Andreas Susenbeth +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of different grazing management systems and grazing intensities (GI) on liveweight gain (LWG) of sheep grazing the Inner Mongolian steppe in order to derive recommendations for a sustainable grassland use which considers both, farmers' interests of a profitable livestock production as well as environmental goals.

Effects of rotational and continuous grazing on herbage quality, feed intake and performance of sheep on a semi-arid grassland steppe.
Jun Hao,Uta Dickhoefer,L. Lin,K. Müller,T. Glindemann,Philipp Schönbach,A. Schiborra,C. Wang,Andreas Susenbeth +8 more
TL;DR: The study showed that RG does not improve herbage growth, feed intake and performance of sheep and suggests that stocking rates rather than management system determine the ecological sustainability of pastoral livestock systems in semi-arid environments.
