Disaster! You won't believe what the cows did!

What happens here

Bale grazing involves placing hay bales directly in the pasture, allowing cattle to feed while simultaneously fertilizing the ground with leftover hay and manure. This method is especially useful for hay that is too 'trashy' or damaged to be unrolled. For optimal pasture recovery, strategic placement on bare spots is recommended, creating 'diapers' of organic matter that promote new grass and clover growth. This strategy helps heal the land and provides continuous feed.

Goal: Strategically place hay bales for cattle grazing to improve pasture health and provide feed.
