Grazing

Grazing is when animals eat grass or other plants that grow in a field. Imagine you are a cow, and you live in a big open space with lots of green grass. Every day, you go out and eat some of the grass that is available to you. This is called grazing.

Grazing is not just something that cows do, though. Other animals that can graze include sheep, horses, and goats. All of these animals need to eat plants to stay healthy, and grazing is a way for them to do that.

The field that the animals graze on is called a pasture. The grass that grows in the pasture is called forage. Forage is what the animals eat when they graze.

When people talk about grazing, they usually mean that the animals are free to roam around the pasture and eat whatever they want. This is called free-range grazing. This is different from when the animals are kept in a barn and given food to eat.

Grazing is an important part of farming because it allows farmers to raise animals for meat, milk, or wool using land that might not be good for growing crops. It is also a natural way for the animals to get the nutrients they need to stay healthy.
