Abstract

This study demonstrates how new remote sensing technologies can accurately measure the nutrient status (protein, nitrogen and fibre) of pastures. This is critical knowledge for livestock grazing management, especially with high rainfall variability and a changing climate. With knowledge of both the amount and nutritional quality of pasture (seasonally), graziers can adjust their property or paddock stocking rates and apply supplementation to ensure their operations are both productive and sustainable.
