Integrate Waterers with Rotational Grazing System
At 9:55 in
The first thing you should think about when buying property or a farm! WATER!
What happens here
The Mirafount waterers are strategically placed and integrated into a rotational grazing system using electric fencing and spring gates (from Farm Fence Solutions). Four posts are set up around each waterer, and a spring gate allows cattle access. When moving cattle to a new paddock, the electric fence line is unhooked from one post and re-hooked to another, guiding the cattle to the next grazing area. This ensures that the cattle can always access water while being moved through different pastures, optimizing land use and animal health.
Goal: Configure spring gates and electric fences around the waterers to support a rotational grazing system, allowing efficient movement of cattle between pastures while ensuring access to water.
