| ID notes: | See also Livestock: stock rates - summer |
| | Stocking rate maps were generated from the densities of cattle in winter, and densities of donkeys and goats (as |
| | described "Livestock densities:cattle in winter", "Livestock:donkeys" and "Livestock:goats"). Stocking rates were |
| | calculated as cattle density+donkey density+ 0.125*goat density, giving the number of large stock units per square |
| | kilometre. |
