Overplowing and overgrazing are agricultural practices that lead to soil degradation. Overplowing involves excessive tilling of the soil, which can disrupt its structure, reduce organic matter, and increase erosion. Overgrazing occurs when livestock graze land too intensively, preventing vegetation from recovering and leading to soil compaction and loss of fertility. Both practices can result in diminished land productivity and increased desertification.

What is grazing to the cervix?

Grazing to the cervix refers to a technique used during childbirth where the baby's head applies pressure to the cervix, stimulating it and promoting dilation. This process can help facilitate labor and encourage the release of hormones that aid in the progression of childbirth. Grazing is often described as the baby's head "grazing" against the cervix during contractions. It can be an important part of the labor process, as it helps the body prepare for delivery.

Do cows ruin the pasture by free-grazing?

By "Free Grazing" you mean Continuous Grazing, I assume. Yes they can, because they pick the best plants to eat, and keep eating them as they grow back, decreasing the population and vigour of these desirable species, and enabling the less desirable species to take over.
