Grazing

Grazing refers to the act of animals, particularly herbivores, feeding on grass and other vegetation in a natural or managed environment. It is a common practice in agriculture, where livestock like cattle and sheep are allowed to roam and eat grass in pastures. This method can promote healthy ecosystems by encouraging growth in grasses, preventing overgrowth, and maintaining soil health. Additionally, responsible grazing practices can enhance land productivity and biodiversity. However, overgrazing can lead to land degradation and environmental issues, making sustainable management crucial for both the animals and the land they inhabit.
