Extract

Weeds in pastures are eaten in varying amounts and when consumed probably contribute to the diet of grazing livestock. However, many are not taken by the grazing animals and thus are largely useless plants that are using nutrients, water and light that would grow plants of higher value. In addition to the low palatability of some weeds, many are annual plants that fluctuate more widely in production with adverse weather than the more desirable perennial plants.
