The Wisconsin Schools of Grazing leads an interactive, personalized workshop on managed grazing. Learn to implement skills and calculations to lengthen your grazing season, reduce feed costs, and increase farm resilience.
In this session, you will learn how to:
• Assess the financial benefits of maximum grazing acres and days
• Match livestock numbers and acres to your farm goals to maximize grazing
• Manage your forage inventory
• Customize a forage and soil fertility plan for your land and livestock
The Grazing School team offers depth of experience and diversity of perspectives based on years of work with farmers to implement successful grazing systems. In this interactive session you will get hands-on experience calculating stocking rate and forage inventory to maximize the value of managed grazing on your acres. Bring your grazing plan, soil map, and other information to begin applying these concepts to your farm!
