摘　　要：It has been an observation of mine over the last few years that in articles dealing with animal allocation to pasture or rangeland in various countries,there are differences between authors in the units used for some common terms such as stocking rate,stocking density or grazing intensity when reporting experiment treat-ments and data.Some authors are using units incorrectly,in my opinion.Hence,I thought that it would be useful to write an editorial for Grassland Research,setting out a logical framework and units for authors'consideration when preparing manuscripts on this topic.This is neither an in-depth review nor an attempt to redefine terms and concepts,but simply a call for authors to use units correctly within the currently accepted framework and definitions.
