« La Terre » de Zola, une histoire biogéochimique de la Beauce au XIXe siècle by Juliette Anglade, Gilles Billen, Josette Garnier

“…Wheat farming had already increased with the replacement of the traditional fallowing practice by leguminous nitrogen-fixing hay recycled by the livestock which transferred this nitrogen to arable land via grazing and manure application. The results show that nitrogen fluxes were approximatively in balance in those mixed-farming systems, thus minimizing nitrogen environmental losses and ensuring good water quality. …”

Attitudes des éleveurs et sensibilité des systèmes d'élevage face aux sécheresses dans les Alpes françaises by Baptiste Nettier, Laurent Dobremez, Jean-Luc Coussy, Thomas Romagny

“…One solution is to purchase fodder to compensate for the decrease in the harvests that normally provide animal feed in the winter; the amounts purchased vary with the length of wintering required. For the grazing periods, the high mountain livestock breeders and the dairy systems of the Northern Alps rely above all on extending and over-sizing the pasture areas in relation to the needs of the herds. …”
