Stocking rates are expressed as the number of animal unit months (AUM) supplied by one acre of land. The greater the difference between current forage production and the potential forage production of a pasture, the greater the difference will be between carrying capacity and recommended stocking rate.
The fundamental frequency of a wave is the lowest frequency (longest wavelength) that can be used to define its period. The easiest way to understand it is via a musical analogy: The fundamental frequency is the root tone of the overtone or harmonic series.
Harmonics are voltages or currents that operate at a frequency that is an integer (whole-number) multiple of the fundamental frequency. So given a 50Hz fundamental waveform, this means a 2nd harmonic frequency would be 100Hz (2 x 50Hz), a 3rd harmonic would be 150Hz (3 x 50Hz), a 5th at 250Hz, a 7th at 350Hz and so on.he fundamental waveform can also be called a 1 st harmonics waveform. Therefore, a second harmonic has a frequency twice that of the fundamental, the third harmonic has a frequency three times the fundamental and a fourth harmonic has one four times the fundamental as shown in the left hand side column.
