Pasture Management and Fencing Strategy

somebody cool let's go check out where the loaders been working I'll talk to you a little bit about what's going on I imagine there's a lot of mud over there so we'll probably steer clear of all that mud cool contacts yeah [Music] that's what you're getting ready to see is the results of intensive mowing and hopefully intensive grazing we'll do the same thing for our pastures but oh my goodness they are absolutely beautiful normally this time of year everything would start going into obsolescence in other words kind of the grass would be finished up and petering out and man it looks just awesome check it out beautiful beautiful luscious green fields can't beat that complaints it screws down this way guys offense is looking good you can see their wire ties on the tops of some of these posts I'll show you right here there's a wire ties right there on the top of that post some of this fencing we haven't tied to the post yet we've still got a little bit of work to go here this is the area that we're going to be cleaning up and receding next so all of what you see in dirt behind us will be what we're working on next to establish pasture this was overgrown pasture in other words there were terraces built into the land right here and this was crop land at one point but it grew up we cut the timber off of it we push this out we smoothed it out and we're going to turn it back to pasture our fence line which you can't really see because the Gators right here but our fence line goes straight this way and it's also going to go straight in behind you and separate our fields in other words there'll be a fence that goes straight through here and splits our bottom land which this is going to be bottom land with our upper land and there'll be many many more cross fences to go here on the farm we're working closely with the NRCS the natural resource conservation folks that helped plan farms and help plan water systems and help keep mud and manure out of the creeks so we're trying to do this right that's what's going on over here and that's why we're doing what we're doing as soon as we can get grass seed down on this and we're gonna seed it first we've got a disc it we've got to drag it probably three times this whole area pull all the sticks and rocks out of it come in here with a no-till see drill drill down seed this is one area and you'll get an aerial view at the end of the video we're gonna go to the next big area we keep our hay cutters over here on this side of the…
