Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the effects of grazing regulations on pasture health in New Zealand. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Grazing regulations in New Zealand have both positive and negative effects on pasture health. While well-managed regulations can enhance grass growth and prevent overgrazing, stringent rules may lead to underutilization and reduced biodiversity. Effective enforcement and farmer compliance are crucial for maximizing the benefits of grazing regulations, highlighting the need for a balanced approach that considers ecological sustainability and livestock management needs. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental determinism, resource dependence theory & ecological modernization theory may be used to anchor future studies on analyze the effects of grazing regulations on pasture health in New Zealand. Tragedy of the commons, ecological resilience theory & adaptive management theory
新西兰放牧法规对牧场健康的影响
目的:本研究旨在分析新西兰放牧法规对牧场健康的影响。研究方法:本研究采用案头研究法。案头研究设计通常被称为二手数据收集。这主要是从现有资源中收集数据,因为与实地研究相比,它具有成本低的优势。我们目前的研究调查了已经出版的研究和报告,因为这些数据可以通过在线期刊和图书馆轻松获取。研究结果新西兰的放牧法规对牧场健康既有积极影响,也有消极影响。管理良好的法规可以促进牧草生长,防止过度放牧,但严格的法规可能会导致牧草利用不足和生物多样性减少。有效的执法和农民的遵守对于最大限度地发挥放牧法规的效益至关重要,这突出表明需要采取一种兼顾生态可持续性和牲畜管理需求的平衡方法。对理论、实践和政策的独特贡献:环境决定论、资源依赖理论和生态现代化理论可用于今后分析新西兰放牧法规对牧场健康影响的研究。公地悲剧、生态恢复力理论和适应性管理理论
