High Density Grazing - What's actually Possible Webinar Recording - AVAILABLE NOW
14-Feb-2011
In the last year or so there has been a marked turnaround in
seasonal conditions in much of Eastern Australia. It's reasonable to
expect that normal conditions will return to Western Australia in the
next few months. All in all, there are many opportunities to plan for
and attempt high density grazing.
Overseas
evidence suggests that properly managed, very high density grazing
management not only rehabilitates land more quickly but does so very
cost effectively. Based on the evidence we have seen overseas and the
increasing amount of information arriving from proponents, the essential
tool is human creativity. To this must be added grazing, high levels of animal impact, properly considered and applied rest, and only very low levels of technology. Combined correctly soil surface conditions are manipulated to encourage an explosion of living organisms.
In
short, it is clear that it is not possible to use this technique when
rotationally grazing - it demands a high level of grazing planning. The
question is, under our various local conditions can we achieve
meaningful results, and if not, what blocks us and how do we remove the
blocks?
