ANIMAL FORAGE

Animal Forage

Animal forage refers to the food that is provided to animals for grazing, browsing, or consumption. It includes a wide range of vegetation, such as grasses, legumes, and other plants that are grown or harvested specifically for animal consumption. Forage can be provided in various forms, such as fresh or dried hay, silage, and pasture grazing. It is an essential source of nutrition for livestock, including cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and other domestic animals. Forage also plays an important role in sustainable agriculture as it helps to maintain soil fertility, prevent erosion, and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers.
