The total grazing pressure of all stock over a season, standardising diverse animal classes into a comparable unit (AE or DSE). With seasonal breeding, grazing pressure builds through the growing season as calves grow and trading stock are carried, then eases as stock are sold.
South-west Victorian beef enterprises average 15.6 DSE/ha (roughly 2 AE/ha); the most profitable reach 20.6 DSE/ha.
EverGraze / SW Farm Monitor ↗It lets you compare the carrying capacity of different paddocks and match total herd feed demand to your land’s actual pasture production across the year.
Silo pulls each of these from the sources the operation already uses, and keeps the figure current automatically.
Implement rotational grazing to lift pasture utilisation and carrying capacity.
Segregate and prioritise mobs ahead of changes in seasonal conditions.
Identify unusable pasture viable for rehabilitation and invest in it.
