Calculating Paddock Size for Dairy Cattle

In What Does Light, Moderate and Heavy Grazing Look Like? you get a visual of different intensities of grazing so you can take a quick look at your pasture and decide if you should move to the next pasture. But what if you’d like to plan ahead for the rest of the season to make sure you’re going to have what you need to feed?

If you have 5 minutes, Sarah Flack can show you how to make your calculator work for you.

Enjoy!

Can we suggest a  free grazing chart to write down plans? Our very own GrassWhisperer, Troy Bishopp, put them together for you because he’s found they reduce worry and actually help him enjoy life more by making sure he schedules time off with his family.

I am the founder, editor and publisher of On Pasture, now retired. My career spanned 40 years of finding creative solutions to problems, and sharing ideas with people that encouraged them to work together and try new things. From figuring out how to teach livestock to eat weeds, to teaching range management to high schoolers, outdoor ed graduation camping trips with fifty 6th graders at a time, building firebreaks with a 130-goat herd, developing the signs and interpretation for the Storm King Fourteen Memorial trail, receiving the Conservation Service Award for my work building the 150-mile mountain bike trail from Grand Junction, Colorado to Moab, Utah...well, the list is long so I'll stop with, I've had a great time and I'm very grateful.
