Synopsis The combined pooled variation between paired steers for all pastures during three years was 17.86 with C. V. of 12.3%. Effectiveness of the procedure is dependent upon: (1) a uniform experimental herd (2) a preliminary observation period, and (3) continuous sound stocking rate decisions throughout the grazing season.
