    Interesting point on rotating paddocks so you aren't using them the same time every year. Funny because it seems so basic yet I never thought about it before.

    How is this supposed to help on a new farm with no information no data? What about the sheep and chickens that are also in rotation ?

    👋 Hi.
    This would take planning on paper with a great deal of thought and good knowledge of your property. The soil would have to be suitable for all animals that would be grazing on it....I would think. 🤷‍♀️ Be blessed. Much success in all your planning and work. 🥰

    • @theShepherdess

      Thank you, Patricia! Yes, it is definitely a lot to think about... but the good thing is that he recommended just getting started and going from there!

    What do you plant in your grazing area? I have a 3-3.5 acre area that has been hay for the last 30years. I have purchased the land about 8 years ago and started mowing it. Not taking anything off. I would like to have beef and chickens to help regenerate the soil. Any ideas?
