Or did you take years
to get your pastures ready.
It's back to the, when you buy something, don't just buy something.
Is it set up for you to get the pastures ready so that the forage can feed your animals so you're not having to put a bunch of money into it?
And if you have animals that are forage-based, they're smarter.
They understand there's nothing on the road for me.
need to be here so i don't need to hop the fence let me stay here but move them nobody wants to live and eat their own right move them don't just sit on there because you now have a farm move them you don't want to sit in that nobody wants to live in squalor nobody wants to eat that so we move our cows and right now we're bale grazing and and the smart thing to do is to use everything that comes from that animal so that manure is fuel
So if you structure your farm so that your animals are tight in an area, let them fertilize it for you.
Let them chop it up.
We call it the Buffalo principle, right?
So what the buffaloes did, they ran through, they chopped up everything.
Dropped a bunch of manure down.
The turkeys, the songbirds, everything scratched through the manure, spread it out.
It's a great system.
Dung beetles come up.
They get it.
You got fertilizer under there.
You just have to be patient enough to let it work.
And when I'm consulting people, I ask them, I said, well, how arrogant are you to think you can improve God's design?
Crazy.
