Abstract
Estimates are made of the quantities of various pasture and crop types consumed by Canada geese (Branta canadensis maxima) at Grasmere Station over two years. The costs incurred by the farmer as a result of such feeding are then calculated on the basis of displaced stock units using a computer-based farm management modelling technique.
