[QUOTE="Larry Sansom, post: 32860, member: 332"] [b]If you use Intensive Rotational Grazing - moving the temp. fence 1-3 days, letting the grass rest and grow a month or so before returning, you can graze an amazing number of cattle/ acre. Get your grass in as good a condition as possible - pay more for grass seed and fert. - then start rotating pastures. Do not overgraze - when it gets dry, you might have to feed hay, better to do that than hurt your grass production. You must think "grass farmer" and not "cattle farmer".
