Episode Synopsis

Most cattlemen allow their cattle to do selective grazing where cattle select the best regarding forage species and parts of plants while leaving behind as residual the undesirable species and stems, as they prefer leaves. This is the main reason that the undesirable species take over a field or paddock. The consequence is a lower harvest efficiency and less leaf production per square yard, acre or hectare. This also means less humus production. What is the alternative and how can you get there? In today's podcast I will show you how to transition from a selective (conventional top grazing) grazing to a Total grazing (high harvest efficiency without overgrazing)!   Blog Transcript: https://www.rwranching.com/blog/10
