Yes! It's our favorite time of year when Troy shares the new, blank grazing charts so that we can all get started planning for the green up. And this time, he's sharing a little about why he does what he does as well.
No matter when your grazing season starts, there's no time like now to download your 2014 version and start thinking about how you want to manage your pastures and paddocks this year.

Troy Bishopp has been working on making grazing planning easier for himself and his fellow farmers for quite awhile now. He's found that grazing charts make it possible for him to successfully plan for his forage, livestock, finances, and a most importantly, a personal life with his wife, family and friends.

These grazing charts were developed as part of a project I led called "Utilizing Holistic Planned Grazing as a Regenerative Engine for Sustainable Agriculture."...
