[QUOTE="Texas PaPaw, post: 258430, member: 2905"] IMO a good rotational grazing system is one of the most cost effective management tools a cattleman can use. However, it is much more than building cross fencing and rotating cattle. Learning the basic principles of grass growth, nutrition & rotational grazing are very crucial to success. Without learning these principles, attempting rotational grazing could be an exercise in futility. I would highly recommend attending either the Linneus Mo. grazing school or the Noble Foundation grazing school. If your main forage is fescue the Missouri school may be a better fit, whereas if bermudagrass is your main forage the Noble school would probably be the best. Both teach the basics about management intensive grazing (MIG), which are applicable to any type forage. However, IMO you will probably better relate to the school which uses the type forage you are familiar with. For the Missouri school info check out this link.
