[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1260927, member: 498"] By doing intense grazing you are always grazing the grass in a vegetative state. This means the cell walls in the grass will not be as solidified thus they break down better in the cow gut. This is turn makes for manure which breaks down faster. As for cows never ever grazing anywhere near manure. I have seen lots of pastures that were grazed down to the appropriate height, the cows moved off, and then had cow manure spread on then. The next time around the cows grazed it just fine. I have in the past used a homemade pasture drag that was a railroad tie with a piece of cyclone fencing wired on to drag behind. It did a great job of breaking up manure and spreading it around. Nesi, I only got one front tire on the pickup. [/QUOTE]
