Episode 4 - Adapting Grazing Strategies for Seasonal Changes: Fall and Winter Grazing

  • Summary

  • As the lush growth of spring and summer gives way to the more dormant seasons of fall and winter, regenerative ranchers face the challenge of adapting their grazing strategies to continue supporting both land health and livestock performance. In this episode, I explore how the changing seasons influence our management practices and the critical shift from landscape-focused grazing to performance-focused strategies.

    Key Topics Covered:

    • The Dynamic Nature of Seasons: Understand the importance of observing and responding to the natural changes in the environment to maintain a sustainable ranching operation.
    • Transition from Landscape to Performance Grazing: Learn how grazing management shifts focus from enhancing ecosystem functions in spring and summer to prioritizing livestock health and condition in fall and winter.
    • Strategies for Effective Fall/Winter Grazing: Delve into practical strategies such as the use of stockpiled forage and the introduction of supplemental feeds to ensure that livestock maintain optimal health through the colder months.
    • Adapting to Cool-Season Grass Dynamics: Discover how the emergence of cool-season grasses requires adjustments in grazing and recovery plans, and how managing these grasses effectively can enhance forage availability and pasture health during fall and winter.

    Join me as I share how to navigate these seasonal shifts, ensuring that your grazing practices are not only adaptable but also aligned with the holistic goals of your regenerative agriculture operation.
