The estimation process was as follows. First, seasonal  pasture growth data were collected or, where such data were unavailable,  seasonal pasture growth was estimated from published climate data using  the GROW model. The UDDER model was then used to generate, from the  pasture growth information and average regional stocking rate, seasonal  pasture mass profiles for an },
