Love your channel im a Greg Judy Junkie. I live in Massachusetts I have a micro farm but I'm determined to do this. I just learned something thank you so much.
Thanks a lot for the video. Thanks a lot for the video. Quite useful!! I have a doubt. Does someone know a university in the USA that offers courses or a training program for three months in grasslandad or perennial forage crops managment? I am a farming engineer from Argentina, and I am working in this field. My wish is to improve my Knowledge in this area. Thanks a lot again!
Just found this channel an love what I'm watching. Curious..... in this situation an video when you talk about loose stools from to much protein, how would you control or change that consumption to allow for better digestion? Normally I'd say hay but it's July.. thank you
And here are a couple videos about grass finishing: ruclips.net/video/7K-Ay-c3_Bo/видео.html; ruclips.net/video/HNpZNDB24eA/видео.html; ruclips.net/video/pwDD2lOxXho/видео.html
@@tanyanixon1896 truth. Most farms all had some type of pond in every pasture spread out on the landscape. Including dry ponds that only show up for short times.
Ive done rotational grazing for 40 years. I promise that if any dairy farmer put their cows out on this pasture. The cows would go dry ! The prime vegetative stage is from 3 inches to 6 inches. After that...I always gave it a rest and cut it for hay ! For a dairy farmer. I was very successful and productive !
Thanks for your comment! This video series is specifically about raising beef cattle, but you're right to point out that farmers will need to customize their grazing management to meet the needs of their livestock and management goals.
@@WallaceCenter But.... both produce milk right ? Id think the calf would gain much better if the cow produced a lot of milk ? So.... the same isnt true that a stock cow wouldnt go dry eating overgrown grass ?
Doing something 40 years and productively doesn't mean is the best or that is quality. McDonald's has been around for 66 years and has been highly productive and successful. Their food however is junk and by no standard or means considered quality food. Just keep that in mind. 😉
@@dietrevich However dairy cows / milk cows have been producing milk for many many years ! Production is production ! If a cow wont eat the grass production suffers ! And thats my point relating to this video.
@@jerrylansbury9558 “In the US, the average dairy cow produces more than 7.5 gallons of milk per day. If she was producing just enough to feed her calf, a dairy cow would only produce about one gallon of milk per day.” Beef calves do just fine on smaller quantities of milk and there’s a growing number of beef breeders who select for smaller udder size and hence better cow condition during lactation.

Glad to hear it! We have all kinds of grazing resources so let us know if we can help you with anything in particular (PastureProject@winrock.org).

Do you have any videos about finishing on grass and selling the grass finished beef?
Here is a webinar specifically about marketing grass-fed products: ruclips.net/video/DROXkvD2G8Q/видео.html

When I see a frog, I go nuts. it sometimes burrows down into my mulch. chilling in my pasture far away from the pond on the other side.
The more biodiversity, the better the health.
