Permanent grassland is land used permanently(for several consecutive years, normally 5 years or more) to grow herbaceous fodder, forage or energy purpose crops, through cultivation(sown) or naturally(self-seeded), and which is not included in the crop rotation on the holding. The grassland can be used for grazing, mown for silage and hay[, ] or used for renewable energy production. 4, record 1, English, - permanent%20grassland

La prairie permanente est un couvert végétal herbacé installé depuis de nombreuses années. Elle est caractérisée par une grande richesse d'espèces végétales spontanées en équilibre écologique sous l'effet conjoint du milieu des pratiques agricoles. Ces dernières sont indispensables pour sa pérennité (fertilisation, pâturage et fauche). Elle se singularise des prairies semées par l'absence de travail du sol [...] 3, record 1, French, - prairie%20permanente

Annual crops can provide for rest and recovery of perennial pastures from grazing or crop stress. They can be used to provide additional feed in years when you need it, such as during or after a drought, or they can become a routine part of your feeding strategy to give you added feeding flexibility. As part of your annual pasture rotation plan, annuals allow you to utilize more of your farm for grazing. 3, record 3, English, - annual%20crop

For the last three or so years a variant of strip grazing called block grazing has been used with both cows and sheep particularly when going through the winter using a slow rotation. Obviously if the length of rotation is say 40 days; then extra subdivision is needed since the average number of permanent paddocks on most dairy farms is only about 15-20. The extra subdivision is accomplished by using electric fences, but the main feature of the block grazing system is that the areas should be as square as possible. This discourages the cows from aimless walking up and down the fence line which does occur with along narrow strip, and so reduces trampling damage and waste of grass. p. 214, Pastures & Pasture Plants 1973. 1, record 6, English, - block%20grazing
