Self-medication on pasture refers to the behavior of ruminants in consuming plants that may have a beneficial effect on their health (bioactives). The secondary metabolites they ingest can have prophylactic or curative properties. The breeders’ practices of developing high-density sown grasslands that include specific species encourage self-medication. Although scientific knowledge of the associated practices is still limited, they are now finding an increasingly important place in ongoing research. In grazing systems, they can be used as alternative treatments for livestock diseases.
