LivESTOck disTRibuTioiN In foRESTEd qRAziNq lAi\ds Several factors interact to influence livestock distribution in a forestland grazing Linit. They may physically limit the number of acres livestock have access to graze. Remember, when determining stocking rates, count only the acres that livestock will actually use. It is important to recognize these limitations so that you don't accidentally overstock forested acreages. The following are "grazability factors" to consider when setting stocking rates and evaluating lixx'stock distribution in a forested pasture. • Slope of the land. • Distance to drinking water. • Amount of slash or other barriers present, such as downed trees. • Miles of roads and trails in the unit.
