Grazing height
What the sward looks like, not a yield contest. Take-half-leave-half is harvest-efficiency language the stocking calculator already uses.
What’s in the paddock?
How tall is it?
Pick a forage, then a height. Short means you already took too much. Target is take-half-leave-half. Tall means quality is walking out.
Planning only. Not a forage test, not a stocking recommendation for your county. Residual targets are common extension rules of thumb.
