All,
I just wanted to get our recent rotational grazing experiences out to the group. In a nutshell, it has been great. The rotational grazing program has really helped keep the cows from over eating certain sections.
For us we have broken up about 30 acres of not so good grazing fields into about five or so different different areas. While the grass is not great, we are renovating an old rock quarry, we have the cows stay on one area no longer than a week helps the grass that is there grow stronger.
We have about seven to 10 steers and our bull that we rotate through these areas. All and all, it is working for us.
