Trying to get better at this grazing thing.

Saw a recent Greg Judy video where he explained that he was moving his herd faster in late summer to allow the grasses to grow back quicker for a winter stockpile.

My flock is grazing through the second worst section of pasture here on the farm. Gave them about 3 days worth ( or at least three days worth in Spring ) and moved them in two days. Hoping that helps. Its not a huge difference but that extra day would have really taken the area on the right down too low for my taste. Rain is hard to come by this year.

Keeping parasites in mind, I dont know if I have enough land to move them daily late summer just yet. New section of pasture we acquired is low, low, low quality...so hoping this helps.

Butcher day is next week for some of these lambs...lots to consider when trying to keep ruminants on grass only. If you know you know!
