Abstract

Management Intensive Grazing is a tool we have developed over the years to harvest forages on our 1400-acre farming operation. Our family-owned corporation consists of my father and one employee, and includes 400 acres in corn, 400 acres in soybeans, 160 acres in hay and 500 acres in pasture. We have 220 beef cows and a 400-head finishing feedlot. Since adopting Management Intensive Grazing in 1989, it has evolved into an integral part of our operation. Today we have 12 major paddocks subdivided into 50 smaller paddocks, through which our 220 cows are rotated in four to five cycles.
