I dont know if anyone read this message. What species are suitable for grazing animals like sheep for climate like Ontario ?

Those are tree guards that let in some light, not pvc pipes. :)

It’s always been my understanding that you can’t feed black locust to sheep. What has your experience been?

I raise American blackbelly sheep, and they are an incredible breed. Like you have described, they are nearly bulletproof. I heard of one experienced rancher who lost 5 out of 12 sheep (he didn't specify the breed) on a single day. I have raised hundreds of blackbelly sheep, and I think I can count on one hand the number I have lost due to illness of any kind (including parasites). Plus, their meat is the best I've ever tasted. I may be a bit biased, since they're my own animals, but I don't think so; it's just incredible meat. Lastly, they're so beautiful. Seeing them out on the pasture never gets old (I'm in my 8th year raising them).

Nice. I came to a similar conclusion with my silvopasture. I’ve been feeding fodder for a few years, and it works well, just a bit labor intensive. I make biochar from the remaining branches.

Enjoyed your video. Do you have to let the seedling trees get to a certain size before letting sheep into graze? I was wandering if the sheep would browse & kill young saplings? Thanks For Your Time: Shawn

They definitely will, the branches should be out of reach. Some protection against rubbing and bark stripping should probably be in place. I don't think they'll seriously hurt older established trees much though.

You tell us how good it is but you don't tell where to source the grow tubes?? WTF? A non-profit can buy in bulk and then sell at a profit if the profit is used to forward the mission of the non-profit. Same thing you can be an amazon affiliate and show us where to buy these. You are selling this idea to academics instead of farmers.. Farmers don't have time to research where to find all these thing.

You’re exactly right they charge for their services, a nonprofit that charges for their services and again you can look that stuff up and find it yourself but it takes time and as a man said most farmers don’t have time they need ideas and help not someone else to pay

How do you intend to protect your locust trees from boring beetles and cankers and root rot? Or are there varieties that aren't as susceptible?

Are other species of trees considered in these situations? I know many species can be used directly as fodder by pollarding and controlled harvest of the leaves. What about nuts like chestnut (although the spiny casings would be a deterrent)?

Question - I am doing silvopasture with sheep in NW Alabama and the problem I run into is the volume of leaves in the fall that don't allow for good grass growth. You seem to have no problem at all and have many more trees than I do. How are you keeping the leaves from smothering out your grass? thanks.
@quailjailss5 ай бұрын
My first thought was how is there so much greenery under that canopy. That is a LOT of trees for that amount of green under them. They do look like younger trees though.
@charlizekatzenbach50115 ай бұрын
The leaves seem to compost enough for the invasive to come back up in the spring. They are not the "normal" grasses that are in our more open pastures.which may be why the damp forest is best for them.

I am curious how you might approach older trees to begin harvest of fodder. Would it be easier to simply plant young trees, or would pollarding/coppicing an old specimen (lets say greater than 12" caliper) work? My land in central KS has many mulberries on the property, and also many volunteer that come up (I'm assuming mainly morus alba). I will definitely try the warm season cutting or layering methods. Great info! (BTW, mulberry firewood is also excellent-- relatively dense, splits easily, and makes a pleasant fire)
@willbass28695 ай бұрын
I don't see a response to your question....have you learned anything about how to harvest mature trees as fodder? Your mulberry situation caught my attention here in Texas. Thanks
@mattcantrell56405 ай бұрын
@willbass2869 unfortunately i have not found much. There is some information from Shana Hanson on KZfaq (@shanahanson4240). I think the approach would be to slowly take the tree down over some years so that you don't shock and kill it. I have a few I will be cutting while they are still dormant.
