By Kay Ledbetter

Understanding animal grazing behavior is an important part of grazing management. Landowners can learn more about the most important issues at a Nov. 6 webinar by the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service ecosystem science and management unit.

“How Livestock Eat: Understanding Grazing Animal Behavior for Improved Livestock and Resource Management” is next in the Texas Range Webinar Series, scheduled on the first Thursday of each month.
