Predicting livestock intake energy at different grazing strategies using agent-based modelling of livestock

Abstract Developing an optimal grazing strategy for livestock in spatially heterogeneous vegetation is essential for the animal production. An agent-based model (ABM) is a spatial explicit simulation modelling that predicts the internal state of livestock (e.g., metabolic energy) and external enviro...
