Understanding Proper Rotational Grazing

What happens here

The farmer explains the core principle of intensive rotational grazing: move cattle frequently (e.g., every 12 hours) to prevent overgrazing. He highlights the negative impact of overgrazing, which stunts grass growth and root systems, making pastures less productive and increasing parasite loads for animals. The goal is to graze one-third of the grass, trample one-third into the soil, and leave one-third standing to support rapid regrowth and soil health. He shows a distinct line between a 12-hour grazed section and a 24-hour grazed section, illustrating the impact.
