[QUOTE="ANAZAZI, post: 1127325, member: 7541"] It is very true that cattle will leave the tall and tough forage and go picking the new growth, IF the are left in that same paddock for a week or ten days. Not much so if they are moved every day. Reasons: with a long grazing period and a short recovery period there will be areas with different age of grass, and the cattle will avoid places where they previosly put the cowpies. With long recovery periods the cattle will no be nearly as picky as all the grass will be tasting/smelling fresh. All the grass will also tend to be of equal age = less motivation to pick through it.
