Our sheep should benefit, they are the ones doing the work!! Growing great grass with zero inputs! In this episode we learn how sheep (and other animals) eat, how does grass grow, how weeds are part of the solution, how to mimic mother nature, how to identify vulnerable pasture, when grass is ready to graze for sheep, the life cycle of grass, how we can sequest carbon with sheep, how many sheep you should have in a paddock, how long should you rest pasture for, how we can encourage diversity in pasture and how to improve the biology of the soil.
