Livestock / Animal Husbandry
English term or phrase: graze off
I’m involved with the landcare movement and it’s a bit of a
concern at times that when the numbers of kangaroos are large that they
do actually graze off some of those important dune stabilising plants.

Explanation:
cred ca se refera la faptul ca, datorita numarului mare al cangurilor, aceste plante care stabilizeaza solul sunt pascute de acestia. Se pare ca nici fermierii nu se bucura cand mananca iarba oilor:)

Să analizăm puţin textul sursă (am evidenţiat nişte cuvinte-cheie):

I’m involved with the *landcare movement* and it’s a bit of a
*concern* at times that when the *numbers of kangaroos are large* that they *do actually graze off* some of those *important dune stabilising plants*.

Cred că oamenii care se ocupă de întreţinerea terenurilor nu s-ar îngrijora dacă nişte canguri doar ar "consuma/trăi de pe urma" plantelor care stabilizează dunele.
Problema este că aceştia ameninţă să distrugă complet plantele stabilizatoare ale dunelor atunci când le pasc în număr mare, ceea ce este exact păşunatul excesiv: distrugerea vegetaţiei de către animale prin păşunat, lucru care afectează solul.

Vezi şi referinţele de mai jos (căutate la cererea expresă a dnei Niţu):

When the grass is grazed off to the ground then it must steal energy from the roots to rebuild the green leaf surfaces for harvesting sunlight.

http://www.wildflowers-and-weeds.com/wtrampling.htm


You get the most efficient use of the forage when you allow the pastures to grow 6 to 8 inches tall and then graze off by concentrating a large number of animals on a relatively small area. The forage can be grazed off and the animals moved to allow regrowth.

http://msucares.com/pubs/publications/p1022.pdf

Stock the area so it will be grazed off in one week or less, one day being ... Early winter graze-off is best done gradually rather than in a few days. ...
