Hello. Great video. I learned a lot about electric fence setup through this. I am working as a terraformer turning the Sahara green, starting in Egypt. I also work with and advise farmers on how to be more sustainable (I will definitely refer my clients to this video). If I may make a recommendation to help you with the drought issue and to increase your hay supply, set apart a small section of your land to grow Sorghum-Sudan grass. You can cut it constantly to make hay for the winter. And during the drought, you can simply hand water the plot (not that it needs it. Sorghum-Sudan grass is very drought tolerant and will still grow several feet a week even with little water). I hope this helps

Hi, as an Irish beef farmer with 55 heifers on 60 acres I would definitely recommend that to increase your stocking rate, you should reseed your paddocks with a mixed pyrennial ryegrass and white clover sward. You will be ablee to grow so much more grass and the clover will naturally fix nitrogen to the soil. I would say reseeding is probably the most important investment on your farm. Keep up the good work!

@jamesfinn61372 жыл бұрын
@@grante.7525 Well know I’m only eighteen studying Ag Science in College next year but we’ve learned that clover is crucial to the award as not only is it highly palatable for both cattle and sheep but it fixes nitrogen to the soil reducing fertilizer costs and increasing variety in the sward is better for the environment. This is white clover I’m talking about but when mixed with a majority perrenial ryegrass sward it’s ideal.

I'm just empty nest mom homesteading our 5 acres on Whidbey Island with my full time working husband. We raised our 3 children on the land gardening, animal husbandry and homeschooling. I love what you are doing. My husband found your channel and shared it with me. We try to raise a good portion of our food with a garden, orchard, layer chicken and ducks, milking goat, and Corriedale sheep 🐑. I added a CVM ewe last spring and she delivered twins on Easter Sunday! We use the sheep for meat...we do the butchering ourselves to make it economical. I chose the Corriedale because they are dual purpose. I wanted to spin and weave the wool. I'm really wanting to do better rotation grazing. Your information has been helpful. We do it some... but need to improve our systems to make it better. You are an amazing young lady and God has gifted you with many talents. God bless...love your channel.🧑🌾🐑🌼❤️

The term used is "AQMD" and is an acronym for Average Quality Management District which rates the number of acres required for livestock. I was asked this question 25 years ago in Arizona by my soon to be wife from Texas who oddly enough was managing a Hotel I was staying at. I've always had horses and she wanted one as well.... Usually in Indiana and other "green pasture" areas it's 1 acre per horse and better with two for switching paddocks. We ended up with four horses and her wanting to move back to Texas, so ten acres it was, thank God.

We just found your channel. Liked and subscribed. After having beef cattle for over 5 decades. My wife and I sold every cow last fall. It was stupid to be in a buisness where everything we had to buy to produce we had to pay retail. and When we sold our produce we had to sell wholesale. All we where doing was swapping nickles. Never made a nickle for our labor. However we have a 3 acre collection /hoard/ junkyard where we reside. and we keep a small flock of sheep to keep it from becoming overgrown. and they do a excellent job. and we have Blackbelly and Dorpher crosses. And two lambs often sell for as much as a weaned beef calf. We would like to expand our sheep herd. however the grazing land we have only has barbed wire. We are working towards changing that. We have enough 4 ft woven wire to go around the premeter. And are buying used chain link fencing when we find it. The plan is to used chain link at the bottom and the woven wire at the top. Get at least a 8 ft premeter tall fence that sets 10 feet inside the current fence that on the property lines. and get a guard donkey. We are simply going to buy the best ram's we can find and keep our best female offspring and grow a larger herd. Im 70 and likely will never own another cow. Good Luck to you.

Good info. I have to change up our grazing system, initially it was almost an emergency situation as a 4 acre pasture we use in the summer/fall was going to be dwindled down into 3-ish & it was all looking to be sold. Prayers were answered & it's off the market .. for now. 1 of our field's is completely fenced with field fencing, but the rest just has barbed wire & that's not conducive with my goat's (or my lowline angus)Angus, so I haven't been able to rotate anything on it (but a horse occupies it), we legally own a 2 1/4 acre pasture that is technically leased (contract was broken right away), that's missing part of a perimeter fence, but if we can get a couple gates put in on the "boundary" fence, then I can run hot wire (hopefully) to start using that for a pasture, but for now, we're just going to cut & bale it for use later. (In theory. This shows me some hope that thing's can work the way I envision it. Though the livestock always have their own plan's lol

He said only new leaves photosynthesize. He said older leaves don't produce much in the way of photosynthesis. If this is true, then older leaves are not adding energy to the plant and are taking away from it because they need to be kept alive. Grazing the plant down closer results in a higher percentage of new leaves meaning more active leaves.

Your determination blew me off the roof. You're a cowgirl. Awesome! I'm not rich, but I was looking for some goats to buy and farm then for every year and sell them. And you asked to leave a comment what everyone had been doing last month. Well, I'm looking to get married. If you're single, then maybe we have a chance. I'm not that bad looking, and I definitely will learn a lot from you. I dont know much about farming, because I grew up in a city but I'm willing and able to learn. And I think I have a small idea where we can grow business as well. Your video made tired looking at you working. Man! I loved that. ❤ awesome!

love the new upgrades, especially the new water runs and running electric around so you have electric access. It is so neat to go through the design phase of this and then see it all come to fruition.

Great job as always. A little advice for your hdpe or poly pipe instead of laying the roll down and uncoiling it try securing the end and unroll it on the ground like your rolling a tire it will make your life easier.

Tip for removing ground rods. Use a post hole digger instead of trying to pull it. WAAAY easier.

My spouse and I are adding a variety of agricultural stocks/ETF to my present holdings for the long term, We've set aside €250k to start following inflation-indexed bonds and stocks of companies with solid cash flows, I believe it is a good time to capitalize on the market for long-term gains, but it wouldn't hurt to know means of actualizing short term profit.

The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
