Between you, Justin Rhodes, Joel Salatin, and now a long line of many others we now have wonderful inspiration for how we want our food made. You guys are great role models. I want my kids watching this stuff. To teach about farming is to teach about how to live life. Live with a budget. Live with a plan. Live with nature. Its what I want my kid to learn because I think some things about this lifestyle could translate to any other business or career.

Hi Greg. I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for all you're doing. I grew up on a farm and moved away when I graduated from high school to do my dream job of being a state trooper. I did that job for 26 years. The first several years were great. I would go on vacation and would be counting the days until I went back to work. This lasted for about 5 years and suddenly I found myself coming home from vacation and counting the days until I could take another one. I talked with my wife at the time about buying a farm and growing alfalfa hay. She was a city girl and liked to spend everything we earned and more, so I never had the chance to buy a farm. A couple years before I retired I ended up getting a divorce. Other than being able to keep most of my retirement any assets I had acquired were wiped out and I was saddled with a lot of credit card debt I had no idea was there. As I said I retired when I after 26 years and moved to south central Texas. After I married my now wife and after living in Texas for a couple years we bought a small farm of 13 acres. I tried to start a business doing 3D laser scanning and after 5 years of struggling I'm closing it down this year. I looked around at our 13 acres and asked myself why I wasn't doing more with it. We had a 5-acre pasture out front that was being taken over by mesquite (it was there when we bought the place) and was over grazed. We had about 5 sheep, a donkey, and a steer on it continuously and it wasn't working. I had never heard much about regenerative agriculture and stumbled onto a video about it one day. (I think I was watching a video on woodchip gardening.) From there I started watching all I could about it and no-till. (Growing up my dad had described no-till as a farce.) By the time I had become interested in no-till and regenerative agriculture I had already purchased a used tractor, a rototiller, and a root plow for the mesquite. I had also started putting in irrigation on our 5 acres. I'm going to work the soil a little more to remove ridges that had been placed for flood irrigation and then seed the land; never to till it again. We're going to divide the 5 acres up into small paddocks and run a couple cows, followed by some sheep, and have some chickens coming up the rear. I figure (depending on the size of the paddocks we can move the animals every day and give the area at 45 to 90 days rest before the animals are back on there again. I'm eagerly looking forward to being back into farming again for real. Thank you, Bill

Yeah, I may be dumb, but I'm not stupid! I'm not going to jump right into this business until I have a lot more experience! I was the caretaker of a 110 acre ranch for a few years in my early 20s just over the hills from Berkeley, Ca. It was AMAZING! 10 minutes from millions of people and their markets & resources but for all practicality, living in the howling wilderness. To the east there was miles and miles of watershed... and beautiful, protected lakes... so yeah, PARADISE on earth for a young man! There were a few cows and horses (which we would ride up to Tilden Park now and then :) but frankly I did not give a damn about those cows. Thinking back now, I realize those pastures were horribly over grazed (pool tables) and I wonder NOW how those poor cows even survived! I think Dick, the lawyer owner (the 'ranch' had been in their family since '45 when dad bought it as a hobby ranch- complete with miles of 'hog-tight' fence for a song... :) brought hay over for them and I do remember slinging hay around with hay hooks (which was a lotta fun! Heh) But I didn't feed them. Must've been Dick. That ranch was his escape from the insanity that lay just over the hills... I don't remember. It was a long time ago! I do remember Dick plugging one in the head with a .22, stringing it up with a block & tackle under a big ol' tree and us skinning, gutting and cutting it up to take to the butcher. That was a great experience! I also remember the cows MOURNING their loss after everyone had left. My girlfriend and I sat in the old pioneer house watching them for a long time. They were beside themselves with grief and making a lot of noise as they sniffed the blood and gore for a very long time. When I told Dick about it, he didn't believe me. We all blind ourselves to inconvenient reality..... They do feel and mourn and are a LOT smarter than most people give them credit for. Cows are not a punch line in someone's joke... I will still kill and eat them because it is the ancient and natural way, but I will respect them and give them the best life possible because of what I know about the hearts & minds of cows... :) But I also less than fondly remember FIGHTING off the meat bees (Yellow Jackets!) during the whole process! All part of the experience and strangely primordially gratifying like harking back to my ancient genetic past........... Anyway, like you say about what others tell you all the time, I had no intention of making a business out of cattle ranching when I started watching your vids, but now that I've read your two books and watched about 2/3 of your videos I've really got the bug!!! And I feel it in my bones....! HeH! Truth is stranger than fiction. My intention was to run a few Dexters only for meat for my own family on a self-sufficient homestead. I still have that goal for initial experience while I read a bunch of books on the subject and get my head into the game and go to workshops and stuff. But now I have become quite serious about probably getting a bunch of South Polls after I know what the hell I am doing and making a go of it! The whole lease thing is quite exciting too!!! I have other ways of making money and the homestead was originally only about growing personal food but dang, Greg! You have INSPIRED me to be a Rancher!!! As I look back though it is another one of those least expected major turns as God shepherds me all the days of my life. So THANKS Greg! I was strongly organic before with old and new technology combined but now I feel like I am even more a part of a huge, growing and dynamic MOVEMENT. A necessary and successful movement back to the land from whence we were all ejected by big ag! Down with big ag and UP with the small farmer and rancher!!!!!! You know, you could start an ag cult Greg, if you wanted to... LoL... This movement is a lot more wholesome than that but even MORE powerful! All The Best, Greg Judy and friends and family!!! Sorry for the length but it's all your fault. You stimulate my dreams and that in turn makes my fingers fly! It's the personal plague that I am assigned with by the powers that be to inflict upon the internet! And I take my job very seriously............ LoL..........

Well, so far I have goats, guineas, Muscovy ducks, and chicks. All with the intent of generating cash flow as well as food for my family. I have not seen a plug nickle come in so far, I am just beginning. I had one buckling and one doeling born on my farm this year. Then I lost the mother to the little doe. I purchased 2 more young does and a young buck. That will give me 4 breeding does this fall. The little buck born here was banded because at the time I had no way of separating him from the rest of the herd. Debating on whether to sell him or just leave him to help eat down all my brush (I have plenty!). How much does it cost you to have a website? I feel like I am in a catch 22 situation of having to put money out when I don't have money coming in yet.

Try free options before spending money on a website - First - claim your business on Google Maps. Fillout the info - save your password so you can come back to it later. (Always keep a copy of your passwords) Second - if you want a website - do a simple Free Website (wix, weebly, wordpress, whatever you can search for that is free) with basic info like a business card - Biz name, biz address, how you would like to be contacted - email/phone/form on the website that sends you an email without giving away your email. You can also put purchase info on there & potentially sell from website later. Third - FB, Twitter, Instagram - link your website - inter-link Fourth - go back to your google maps and update info from website, social media.

Greg, You stated that grass can sustain cows, sheep, and goats. You also said that pigs would need the addition of grain. Yet when sailors came from Europe they would release pigs on the islands for future food resource. I also heard that in the 1700 and 1800's hog meat was different the color. It was "red" (vs "white") and preserved better. Have you done any research on these topics? Are we missing something from history that are forefathers had that is not present today? It would be a great idea for a video and could possibly lead to a different way to raise hogs without grain. Please comment Thanks.

I think it depends on the pig stock. If you raise heritage breeds, I don't think they are as reliant upon grain as the more "modern" breeds are. We raise red Wattle Mulefoot crosses & while their diet is predominantly grains, they can flourish on pasture as well. Their meat are red & you don't have to add anything to make it taste good like you do store bought meat, not even pepper.

To start with it depends on how much grass your acreage has on it, see what the animal units for your area would be in your area, a lot are 1 cow/calf pair per acre. And it depends on your stock. If you do standard size stock, it'll be less then if you do mini or mid size. In the summer, we ran 2 Aberdeen Angus cow's, 2 yearling heifers, 2 calves & about 10 goat's on 4-acres & normally the grass outgrows them, my dad rotates them every 7 day's between 3 paddocks when he water's that are abt 1.56 acres each (maybe a bit less). When they're at home, they're on 1 1/4 acres, until we get more fencing done, but we're going to put the cow's & yearlings in a different field then the goat's this year & wean the calves in a separate area & 1 of the yearlings is still nursing, so the 2 will hang out with the goat's. We've got 6 acres, abt 3 1/2 in pasture. So, I'm hoping to get my rotation going the way I want by next yr. But hubby's health has caused a hiccup. But the way we're doing it, the cow's haven't dropped weight. Their previous owner had hay constantly in front of their face as his field was beyond overgrazed. Hope this gives you an idea of where to start, Greg's the expert, look at his other video's for more idea's if you haven't by now. Thank you for you & your wife's service & sacrifice.

You talked about custom grazing but didn't mention how much on average would you charge a day to graze someone else's animals? cows for instance? I tried a few numbers but it seems either to little for me to make a living or to much for the other person to pay. I did buy your book some time ago but I have had a number of relatives move in with me and I am unsure where it is. If you could answer my question that would be great. Thanks, oh by the way I ask because an opportunity to possibly have access to a farm to do this on just happened and I wanted some idea on what I can realistically make. Thanks

He is so committed to helping people. im Massachusetts I just have a tiny silvo pasture it's absolutely beautiful. I just checked out your channel that answers my question. Go get you one of Greg's bulls and get started. I've passed through that part of the country. I stayed in Jackson one night many years ago. I think that's the name of the town. Good food I remember that.

So the thought is angus being meat cattle have the most marble. Why can you not cross angus over your South Pole and get small frame and good marble etc. I’m sure trying to figure out what it is you for sure do and make sense of it. I grew up around grain feeder farmers so attempting to make sense of everything. Thank you sir.

Easy, out bid your neighbors for land, buy more equipment to handle them acres, then rent more land to pay for better equipment..... Let a sales agronomist set up your chemical and fertilizer program! Make sure to spend the 70$ per acre.to warm and dry the soil becuase it dont work here! Live to far north, cold wet soil..... Make sure you dont use any diversity in your farm, avoid dealing with niche markets.

Greg Judy Regenerative Rancher - thank you Greg for your time - that’s how to cut costs and it is brilliant advice - but do you sell at sale yard price or do you get a sale premium for being such a good farmer? Totally respect if you’d rather not say, as that’s your private business - but here it is vital to making a living - using your story to make more per kg as well as cutting costs All with respect - love your farming philosophy, and trying to implement a version of it here

What do you think about grass fed Dexter cattle? We have a 10 acre property, with 5 acres of pasture, and 5 acres of woods that slope down to a small creek. We want to reclaim some of the woods for pasture. We are both retired, (a fireman and a nurse) starting our second career. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you very much for the time you have invested in the education of others.
