Greener Pastures On Your Side Of The Fence: Better Farming With Voisin Management Intensive Grazing

by Bill Murphy

Tired of cash flows that leave little money in your pocket? If you're feeding livestock in confinement rather than on pasture, you're working too hard and spending too much money. Your permanent pasture is a valuable resource that up till now has been wasted. Forget about how pastures are. Think of how they could be if they were managed with the same amount of attention that you give to your other crops. Voisin management intensive grazing takes into account the needs of both animals and plants, rather than animals alone. Its use can at least double or triple your pasture's productivity. This book explains why and how to use management intensive grazing, and what to expect from its use. It shows a way to simplify your farm operation, reduce its labor needs, increase its productivity, and improve your quality of life.

Greener Pasture on Your Side of the Fence is an in-depth guide to the specifics of rotational grazing. This book has so much fascinating information that it's found a permanent spot on my bookshelf (and I don't keep many books.) If you follow the link, you can see the highlights I wrote about on my blog.

I originally came across this book just looking for different grass types for a winter pasture. I thought it was a boring topic to begin with but once I started reading this book I couldn't put it down and now keep it as a go to for land improvement.

This is a book tead read over and over. Really it's a reference book and text. I've muddled through it, cover to cover, but have found the sections so well defined and written as to stand on their own. I finally took it off my currently reading list. I suspect it'll stay close to hand, though.
