ResumoR OTATION grazing composed one of the panel periods at the third annual meeting of the Range Society held in San Antonio, Texas, in January, 1950. Several papers on the subject were read and lively discussions followed. It soon became apparent that much diversity of opinion exists among both research workers and operators regarding the merits of rotation grazing. Some of these differences seem to stem back to confusion in terminology, as between rotation and deferred grazing; others to the more broadly accepted objectives of these grazing systems, still others to a combination of the two. The importance of this subject prompted Editor Dr. R. S. Campbell to request the authors to prepare their papers for publication in the Journal, preferably in a single issue. He also proposed that the writer edit the series, prepare a brief review on the subject of rotation grazing, list the most pertinent references, and perhaps draw some conclusions on the merits and application of rotation grazing. All agreed to carry out these proposals.
