GRAS-23: Calculate Forage Animal Balance With Grazing Schedule (gras_detailfab)
Calculate weighted average monthly and daily forage production for each AoA. From each monthly production, divide by the number of days in the month to get daily production.
Calculate forage supplies for each area of analysis (AoA) in the grazing system, accounting for forage partition profiles (FPPs).
Calculate monthly, yearly, and system forage animal balances (FABs) for a grazing system having a grazing schedule. Forage supply and animal demand are calculated daily through all years in the grazing system, accounting for harvested roughage, forage partition profile activities and harvest efficiencies. Herds are scheduled onto areas of analysis (AoAs) during always available forage partition profile (FPP) activity periods. This service allocates animal demand to each grazing unit (AoA) for specific periods of time rather than to the system at large. This provices a more detailed analysis of forage animal balance.
