| dc.description | The use of plant growth simulation models, such as the Agricultural Crop Simulator (AgS), can support planning and management decisions in pasture-based animal production systems. AgS is a biophysical model that is being developed to focus on crops relevant to the Brazilian economy. Originally, the model was parameterized for Marandu palisadegrass (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu) under continuous stocking method and cutting regimes. The objective of this study was to parametrize and evaluate the performance of AgS in simulating Marandu palisadegrass biomass production under rotational stocking methods. Field data from an experiment assessing pre-grazing heights of Marandu palisadegrass grazed by beef cattle was used to evaluate the model. The simulations initially underestimated leaf and total biomass production, regardless of pre-grazing height. These results suggested that differences between cutting and grazing methods make additional model calibration necessary. Differences related to regrowth of leaves were addressed and the new calibration resulted in higher biomass allocation to leaves and stems, reducing the mean error in the 25 cm treatment from −1.001 to −253 kg ha−1 and the rRMSE from 41% to 34%. AgS showed potential for simulating rotational stocking after adjustments were made, and future calibrations should consider different management and environmental conditions. | |
