Pasture Precision Program
Precision pasture grazing is a practice where livestock are rotated through smaller, specific areas of a pasture to maximize the use of available forage while minimizing overgrazing. This method helps improve soil health, reduce the risk of erosion, and promote more efficient use of resources. It also allows for more control over the grazing intensity, leading to better long-term pasture health.
Monitoring, measuring, and managing are crucial aspects of implementing precision pasture grazing or any livestock management practice effectively. Here's a brief overview of each:
Getting started is simple:
Measuring
Ride your pasture with the PaddockTrac device. PaddockTrac measures your land with speed and precision.
Monitoring
PaddockTrac sends the data it gathers wirelessly from your phone to the MU Extension cloud.
Managing
Grazing Wedge receives and visualizes your data, giving you key insights into how to manage your pasture for the best yields.
