Comparison

View along division fence between a conservatively grazed pasture (left) and a severely over grazed pasture which has become badly infested by snakeweed as a result of destructive grazing of the grass. The conservatively grazed pasture easily produces five times as much forage as the deteriorated pasture. Taken from fence corner at cattle guard about two miles south of Engle, New Mexico.
