Popis:	Forage responses to stocking rates and seasons were determined over a one-year period. The experimental design consisted of three stocking rates namely, light (2.0ha LSU-1), moderate (1.25ha LSU-1) and heavy (0.5ha LSU-1) and four seasons (autumn, winter, spring and summer) combined factorially in a Randomised Complete Block Design with three replicates per treatment. Data collected included aboveground available phytomass production, botanical composition and crude protein content. Total aboveground available phytomass production of forages at the end of the study period was significantly (P
