Kangaroo = Has generally been estimated as 0.6 – 0.7 DSE, however recent research (Dawson and Munn, 2016) suggests that in arid rangeland areas, competition is not normally an issue in good seasons and that 0.4 DSE appears to be a better estimate in poor seasons.

Q. Do kangaroos eat grass?
Like these animals, kangaroos and wallabies are herbivorous, eating mainly leaves and grass in the wild.
Q. How many sheep can you raise on 10 acres?
Sheep Stocking Rates Per Acre There is no one sheep stocking rate per acre which is considered ideal for all climates and pasture conditions. But, a good rule of thumb is 10 ewes and 15 lambs per acre of pasture.
Q. How is DSE calculated?
The DSE rating is based on bodyweight, growth rate and physiological state of the animal. Then multiply the number of ewes by the monthly DSE rating to give you the total number of DSEs in the paddock for each month (Row 6).
Q. How many cows are in a ha?
A property of 4 hectares has a stocking rate of 10 DSE per hectare, which means a total of 4 adult steers (or 40 dry sheep) can be maintained over the year. If the whole property has only one paddock, the grazing pressure is 1 adult steer per hectare (or 10 sheep per hectare).
Q. How many DSE is a cow and calf?
Livestock equivalents used in the southern rangelands
| Stock type | Stock class | DSE |
|---|---|---|
| Cattle | Bull | 1.5 |
| Cattle | Breeder: includes calf (including mated heifer) | 1.4 |
| Cattle | Branded calves under 1 year | Not rated2 |
| Cattle | Spayed breeder | 1.0 |
Q. How many cows can you have on 100 acres?
If a typical stocking rate for native range is 25 acres per animal unit, then 100 acres might support only four animal units, assuming all 100 acres produce grass and are grazable. It is not economically feasible to own a bull for fewer than 10 to 15 cows.
