Abstract
SUMMARYEffects of simulated and actual grazing at the tillering stage on tiller production and other agronomic characters were studied over a number of seasons at two sites in northern Syria with two local barley landraces. In general, grazing encouraged tiller production but reduced head number per unit area because of a higher tiller mortality or infertility. Seed number per head and seed weight were not affected by grazing except in one season. Grazing delayed heading and maturity and reduced plant height. Simulated and actual grazing produced similar effects on the different characters investigated.
