Abstract

Rangeland species preference is important due to their role in forage production estimation, that is, available forage of rangeland depends on plants preference. In this study two methods of determination of the PREFERENCE VALUE, direct time observation (DTO) and BITE COUNT (BC) in semi steppe rangelands of Fars province was compared in 2009. In each of DTO and BC methods, 3 SHEEP were used to do grazing at 9 and 11 A.M and 4 P.M in four grazing periods. Time of consumption and number of bites for plant species were recorded, respectively. Data were analyzed by factorial experiment in CRD. Comparison of two methods was performed by Anova. The results showed that PREFERENCE VALUEs obtained from DTO and BC for grazed species by SHEEP were significantly different (p<0.01).
