Sažetak
The continuous system of grazing for dairy cows was investigate in introduce to a farm on lowland grassland with a heavy soil, drained few years back. This land is less suitable for grazing at high stocking density (strip grazing) because of poor physical properties of the soil. Pasture was arrange on three separate fields. Cows grazed pasture during spring at stocking rate 6.8 SU/ha, during late spring and early summer at 4.2 SU/ha and in late summer and autumn at 2.6 SU/ha. All pasture was cut once for to conserve the feed as a hay. During grazing season the mass of available herbage was measure at week intervals under protective cages moved once a week. The cost of erecting permanent fence on small property pasture is prepare too for continuous and rotational system of grazing. To run asystem of grazing with high number of paddocks (18) on small properly, relatively large portion of field will be waste for to make access roads to paddocks. To arrange a pasture for continuous system of grazing (1:2:3) is much more simple and acceptable for small farms.
