GRASS PRODUCTIVITY IBD

Sinopsi

VoisinâÇÖs classic is still in great demand, nearly three-quarters of a century after it was first written and published. And with so many books in this area that have completely disappearedThe main point of it, so often forgotten over and over, that grass is more productive when shorn and given time to re-grow. That is the core base of all the current popular works on rotational and "mob" grazing.áItâÇÖs not too surprising then, that you can go through VoisinâÇÖs book and find everything they are saying now as "revolutionary". Because he took the time to make a full study of his land, itâÇÖs cattle, and everything anyone had written on the subject up to that point.áAlso not too surprising is that only the really profitable grazers actually find this book and study it. Then re-study it. Because a regular re-study of VoisonâÇÖs work brings new understanding, new ideas, and greater simplicity to anyoneâÇÖs grazing operation. As well as more profitability.The underlying basic to this work is that through managed grazing, the cows can help the grass be more productive. They help the soil regenerate through their interaction with the grass, very similar to how the vast roaming herds of grazing and browsing animals across the Western plains developed and maintained the prairies. The sheer size of those herds proved the land was capable of supporting massive tonnage of livestock through grazing &ndash, and following natural patterns.But that same land, a few decades later, first was mismanaged into a massive Dust Bowl - and then árecovered from it. And that both says a lot about our own human arrogance, and our ability to use humility ot learn from our mistakes.áGrazing cattle, done responsibly, can improve the land beyond what itâÇÖs produced in decades before. It can start restoring the erosion that plowing nad cultivation have created. ThatâÇÖs if we actually study that book and apply it.In that way, we can first work to make our farming more sustainable and pay its own way, then we can encourage it to save our futures by restoring the land, and producing higher quality beef and forage than it has in centuries.áIF we read, study, and apply now...á- - - -áThis is a reproduction ofáthe original 1959 edition, formatted to trade paperback (6x9).
