Bale Grazing 2023 With Fencing Hack

This is one that needs to be repeated annually. It really works. This year our new adaptation is removing netting as we set bales out. Previously, we would flip bales as we used them and then take the netting off. The snow was so deep and wet last winter that it got to the point where we couldn't flip the bales any longer. The fencing hack speaks for itself. The video featuring it was actually shared by fencing companies. Be in touch if you have any questions.

Spread all the manure around by unrolling the bales.

Unrolling bales works better with more animals because it gets eaten faster. With 8 steers it takes them 4-6 days to finish a bale and too much of it becomes bedding instead of feed. It all becomes fertilizer eventually but less of it is turning into beef.
