Описание к видео John & Iain Bruce - Managing Ground Cover | GBSS

Ground cover relates to the percentage of ground with vegetation cover (including litter), compared to the percentage with bare ground. Maintaining ground cover is important for minimising nutrient runoff, erosion and preserving soil carbon.

In livestock production systems, proactive pasture management practices are the most effective way to manage ground cover. As a result, ground cover can be used as a measure of effective grazing and pasture management.
