"Implementaciòn de potreros rotacionales con pasto saboya (megathirsus maximus) en el Centro Experimental fase 1 de la Escuela de Medicina Veterinaria de la Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias"

Abstract

The present community work was carried out in the Production Area of the Experimental Center of Veterinary Medicine, located in the facilities of the Faculty of Veterinary Sciences and its objective was to implement rotational paddocks with local pasture (Savoy "Megathirsus maximus") for the bovine area. The project was based on a theoretical-practical methodology, it was executed in a period of 5 months; the first month the land was prepared, in the second month the materials were purchased, the stakes and wiring were placed; In the third and fourth months, the grass was cut and later sown in the designated area. In the fifth and last month, weed control was carried. It was concluded that, for the implementation of rotational paddocks, it is very important to take into account the land to be sown, the pasture to be used, the cost of construction and the monitoring of the growth and development of the grass. It is recommended to carry out permanent maintenance to the plots, through an irrigation, fertilization and weed control system.
