[QUOTE="dun, post: 378735, member: 34"] The problem is that the grass/forage varies by time of year, type of forage, category of animal grazing it and weather patterns. There is no pat answer. We could run 75 head on 240 acres (probably more like 180 when the unused areas are taken out), but realistictly that won;t work. When I figure stocking rate I figure that's for the entire year, not just the prime grazing season. In the spring we could run 100 plus, but that decreases the available "quality" forage for the others and doesn;t allow for stockpiling winter grass. dun [/QUOTE]
