Abstract

Complex research were conducted on the rational use of natural pastures, through the seasonal use of foothill pastures in a particular area. On the basis of geobotanical survey, the farm areas were divided into seasons of their use with separation of plant associations. At seasonal use the account of productivity of natural herbage stands on seasons of year is carried out and the gain of live weight of animals for the pasture period is defined. It was found that the use of seasonal use of pastures provides more weight gain studied animals compared to animals that graze in one place with an unsystematic manner of grazing. The research was conducted in 2015- 2017 on the lands of “Batyr” farm in Korday district of Zhambyl region. The pasture lands of the farm consists of 5 independent sites and are located in 3 geographical areas: foothill-steppe, foothill-dry steppe and foothill-semi-desert. The total area of distant pastures is 4.200 hectares.
