Looking Beyond Rotational Grazing
Making some refinements to a managed rotational grazing system can lead to a significant increase in the amount of feed biomass grown and provided to livestock.
WHY IT MATTERS: Farmers can gain more greater soil benefits from employing regenerative principles along with rotational grazing.
That’s according to Mississippi farmer and retired academic Allen Williams, a sixth-generation family farmer and founding partner in the consulting firm Regenified. He believes if “adaptive, regenerative grazing” can take a swath of what looked like northern Mexican desert and transform it — increasing forage biomass by 4.5 times and ranch profit’s by 350 per cent — then it can be effective anywhere.
