Sample Paddock MapTroy Bishopp, the Grass Whisperer, is taking us through the steps for being successful by using Grazing Charts. As you make the switch to paddocks, you’ll want to map your property. But before you jump into mapping, take 5 minutes to watch this video from the Natural Resources Conservation Service. It will give you some ideas about your infrastructure and things you’ll consider before setting up your pastures and paddocks.

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.

  1. I’m interested in software ap that enables one to draw paddock outlines as shown here and I know some such will calculate the acreage. Indeed I see several such aps advertised in my iphone. Would anyone recommend one? thanks Bill Elkins
