    Moving ruminants between noon and 1 boosts the utilization of the higher BRIX levels in the forages and boosts herd health.

      What is BRIX?

      Use mobile electric so you can make them any size you want. As you move them you’ll see how much they eat each day and can figure out how big you need to make the next one

      @@cathycharron-folsom4504 properly managed ruminants, (cattle, sheep, goats,...) add carbon to the soil. Humans eating meat is healthier for humans than eating carbohydrates. See Michaela Peterson and others on the lion or carnivore diet. Carbs make us fat, diabetic, deprive our brains of needed fats for optimal brain function and cause many other harms to human bodies. Ruminants are made to eat grasses and other forages. We lack the rumen, while ruminants have the ability to graze a lot of forages quickly, birp it up later and chew the cud, and then the food is properly digested.

      We care about the envionment, that's why we raise livestock using regenerative farming techniques that care for the animals and the planet by improving soil health conditions to the point of capturing more carbon than the livestock emit :)

RFK, jr. Calley and Casey Means, Mikaela and Jordan Peterson, and others were recently discussing the health benefits of regen ag and human health. Explore more, follow the money trail to see who is pushing a narritive. Think critically of ALL you see and hear. The earth was abundant until corporate greed influenced the ag sphere in the 1940's. See Steve Kenyon graph on a video on yt. Big ag biz inputs siphoned money from farms and small towns, made rural folks poor if they listened to experts.

      I live in Illinois where we grow mostly Corn (Maize) and Soybean for use as livestock feed. We have 27,000,000 acres plowed and sprayed with fungicide, pesticide and herbicide. Our stream and rivers run black with top soil. The University Budgets for Crops contain no Cost for Soil lost to erosion. Growing grains to feed livestock is unsustainable over the long-term. Cattle and Sheep Ranching should be encouraged.
