PASTURE
A pasture is land in which forage plants such as grasses and legumes grow. They can also include brush and trees and are classified as one of two types:
Tame pasture:
This type of pasture is one that has been improved by seeding, or a native pasture consisting of whatever plants grow naturally in your area. Generally, such pastures are capable of a greater production per acre. Tame pastures are those, generally speaking, that are subject to high rainfall, or irrigated fields in otherwise arid areas.
Native pasture:
Some native pastures provide well without the cost of developing a tame pasture. These pastures are mainly those found in mild climates where there is sufficient rainfall to replenish them.
Factors to bear in mind when determining how many animals a pasture can support:
Type of soil – is it rock, sand, fertile, clay etc,
Species of plant already growing
