An investigation was conducted to determine whether goats could control bush regrowth and reinfestation after initial bush clearing. A dense stand of A. karoo was chopped and the regrowth subsequently grazed either rotationally or continuously by sheep or goats. Regular observations of grazing were undertaken and the effect of treatment on bush regrowth and on the grass component was evaluated.Keywords: goats|bushes|grasses|communities|bush control|regrowth vegetation|infestations|grazing|browsing|sheep|treatments|grass compositions|feeding|competition|continuous grazing systems|trees|mortalities|grass cover|Eastern Cape Province|rotational grazing systems|species list
