English term or phrase: grazing pressure

Definition from IFAD:
The relationship between the number of animal units or forage intake units and the weight of forage dry matter per unit area at any point in time; an animal-to forage relationship. May be expressed as animal units or forage intake units to forage mass (animal units/forage mass at a specific time).

Example sentence(s):

An optimum grazing pressure is one in which available forage matches animal needs; this is analogous to the quantity of forage offered daily to animals in confinement when rations are balanced. The Pennsylvania State University
The different grazing pressures were obtained through different stocking rates, adjusted every 21 d according to forage mass, predicted forage production rate, and an estimated forage allowance of 10, 15 and 20 kg dry matter (DM) heifer-1 d-1 for high, medium, and low pressures, respectively. American Society of Agronomy
Stocking rate and annual average grazing pressure (with or without account for feral animals) did not appear to be, in themselves, good indicators of sustainability. Rather, the sustainability of different areas/systems and the impacts on sustainability of changes in management, e.g. stocking rates, may be assessed better through calculating year-to-year variability of the feed base, and periods of critical grazing pressure. cababstractsplus.org

tekanan penggembalaan

Definition from Wanagama Satu:
Tekanan penggembalaan ialah jumlah unit ternak yang digembalakan pada sejumlah lahan yang tersedia di suatu areal padang penggembalaan dalam waktu tertentu.

Example sentence(s):

Salah satu variabel penting, bahkan mungkin yang terpenting, dalam menentukan pengendalian penggembalaan adalah perhitungan besarnya tekanan penggembalaan; titik tekanan penggembalaan optimum (optimum stocking rate - OSR) adalah kapasitas tampung. - Blog Akademik: Michael Riwu Kaho, Undana
Tekanan penggembalaan yang melebihi kapasitas tampung menyebabkan over grazing yang mengakibatkan hilang atau matinya sebagian atau semua vegetasi yang ada. - Wanagama Satu
Menurut Mackinnon (1991, dalam Gunaryadi dkk., 1996), kawasan savana pada umumnya kurang terancam oleh eksploitasi ekonomi dibandingkan hutan hujan, meskipun demikian savana kadang-kadang mendapat tekanan berupa penggembalaan ternak dan penggunaan pertanian lainnya. - UNSJournals
