What happens here
The farmer describes how spreading hay bales across the land (bail grazing) in previous winters has helped to build up the soil and promote forage growth without needing to spread grass seed. He explains that liming the soil raises the pH, making it less acidic and more conducive to healthy forage for the animals.
Goal: Demonstrate strategies for improving soil health and pasture quality.
