That’s awesome Mark to hear someone else’s experience with ‘total grazing’. There wouldn’t be too many around these parts that have heard about it.

I haven’t yet done the course but am thinking about it. I am going into my first summer under this system and so far so good.

Everyone around me is cutting silage and now hay, which is early due to a shorter than normal spring. I still have growing pastures. Any rain now will fire up the perennials. The biggest shift has been time of calving. Majority of calving here occurs from feb-may. I have shifted to August, Sep with 6 week joining ( bulls went in yesterday). It’s all about matching demand with supply and livestock production per ha as opposed to kg per animal…
