Also and main reason for interest in fescue is that our winter's are so mild it could grow all year it would have a lot I life to it.

@buddingnaturalist4 жыл бұрын
Goats occupy scrubland in nature-generally rocky, highslope, twisty-tree areas. Cows (bison and other grazers) occupy grassland-flat, few to no trees for miles on end. They don't eat from the same storey either. So it's not a monoculture to separate them, it's niche exploitation, same as nature does.

@wildrangeringreen4 жыл бұрын
up in Minnesota, Montana, and Alberta, it's pretty common for cattlemen to arrange round bales out in their pastures prior to winter due to the amount of snow they get (sometimes it's too much work for the cattle to get down to the grass until it thaws a little). They strip graze it still, but the cattle also eat off and lay on the bales spread out in the field.

Seeds can actually last over 100 years. So the Gama grass makes sense. I've read of stories of perennial grass seeds 200 years old still germinating. My question is this>>> how does one combine annual cereal and annuals more generally WITH mob grazing. 90% of what we eat is annuals, not perennial foods. What do we do? Can mob graze, then no-till plant and right afterward bring in cattle, or maybe sheep, to lower the height of the grasses and cover crops?

The work with not beat nature into submission... exactly. Folks like to blame Christianity for the dominance mind-set, yet what did Jesus say ? He said it's sinful man who has ideas of leadership like that ( y'all can go look for the verse yourself. It's in the gospels somewhere ) - He says for us to be like Him, which is to be a servant-leader. Which is where I'm going with this. Husbandman. An out-of-use term for being a steward of the land or animals, which was understood to mean good stewardship. Which should inform us as to what it means to be a husband to a wife, also. Someone who helps her flourish, who respects & serves her best interests, and not meaning anything condescending by that ! Anymore than it's condescending for him to need her support & help & wisdom. She submits cuz God is holding him accountable for them as a couple, so, he deserves her co-operation ! Nothing offensive in that ! We each have a job, we each have a sinful nature that wars against being content with our own job, and with doing a good job of it, but it's possible, when we submit to God above all. Sorry if off topic here, but to me this all affects each other, realzing what these terms signify, & getting rid of unnecessarily being offended or misled by them.
