What does it look like to shift irrigated pivot ground from crop production to grazing livestock? On today’s episode, Race King with the Matador Ranch joins us to share how their operation approached that transition. With over 20 years of experience, we discuss what led them to explore grazing under pivots, the steps they took to implement it, and the results they’ve seen over time. From labor and infrastructure to soil health and long-term economics, we explore whether this approach can work in other parts of the country—and how it performs across different market conditions. Plus, we take a look at a different approach to fly control using a bolus-based delivery system that provides up to 195 days of coverage—reducing reliance on mineral intake and/or tags. #workingranchmagazine #WorkingRanchRadio #ranchlife #ranching #cattle #livestock #beef #cowcalf #cattlemanagement #foragemanagement #ranchprofitability #agriculture #agpodcast #pivotirrigation #grazingmanagement #soilhealth #regenerativeag #rotationalgrazing #stockercattle #flycontrol #cattlehealth #Limousin #Neogen #TankToad #NoFence #Gelbvieh
