[QUOTE="City Guy, post: 1362382, member: 25547"] BJB: My early education in cattle production was reading the ideas of such people as Tom Lasiter, Jan Bonsma, Gerald Fry, Walt Davis, Greg Judy, Kit Pharo, Joel Salatin, Allan Savory, Larry Leonhardt and others. And while their opinion of the ideal cow differs somewhat, their basic management philosophies are identical and can be summed up in two sentences: 1. Change the cow, not the environment 2. Demand that the cow do most of the work These principles and the basic tenets of mob grazing and multi species grazing form my personal philosophy of livestock management. Of course, I am painfully aware that I have never and will never have the opportunity to test them in the real world and would probably get slapped silly on some points in actual practice. That is why I have the additional rules of "Don't be afraid to change if necessary" and "It's no big deal to be wrong as long as you're willing to change". I agree with you that whatever one's management style, it should be applied consistently. [/QUOTE]
