[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 575494, member: 3739"] A pasture can decrease in productivity, due to the type of species in it that have been seeded previously, poor grazing management practices, or even successive years of drought that has rendered the pasture forages unproductive. Usually it is due to the grass species that are planted in there, as most of the tame, such as Orchard Grass can decrease in vigour and competition with other tame species it has been seeded with. Thus is the definition of pasture renovation: redoing a pasture to make it have better productivity. There are several methods to renovating a pasture. However, there are two important things that must be done before pasture renovation is even considered. Soil tests and investing in fertilizer. Soil tests tell what sort of nutrients are missing/depleted in the soil in your pasture, and you can fertilizer according to what that handy piece of paper says. Chances are that fertilizing a depleted-in-production pasture will help boost pasture performance, and for a few years of doing that that's as far you'll need to go.
