Don't miss Greg Judy's neat trick for easy back fencing when strip grazing livestock. 

Thanks for the video! The grass looks great not having much rain. I hope you all get rain very soon. Someone asked me the other day how to kill small trees after cutting them so I told him about the Greg Judy method.

Greg, I've been following you some time now. But it amazes me every time that you are able to explain the simple way to farm regenerative. I live in Ireland, and a lot of the people that "grow" beef cattle, just place them in a pasture and when it is done (very short) they send them to another patch and the whole circle starts again. It sometimes takes ages before you see good grass returning. Though most of the time there is a lot of rain falling here, last year caused a lot of concerns (very dry) this would have helped a lot. But a lot don't want to clear their grounds and just put the cattle in. Their choice I think. Keep well and God bless

good morning thank you for continuing to share your knowledge and experience with eveyone may 20 is our target date to start our southpoll journey (turn the bulls out) we will have backed up the calving season aprox 3 weeks to 3 1 24 the cow pats look really good but we planted the orange pumpkins for pumpkin pie yesterday happy grazing chuck east central oklahoma

Pumpkin pie! 😂 I totally get why Greg likes what he sees there, but good luck with the whipped cream part of that. 😆

Good morning It just rain here in Oklahoma for 4 days We had a few tornadoes as well might of heard on news. Where do you get those pig tail at online or a store Never have seen any of your type of step ins at my feed stores etc . God Bless

"Looks like pumpkin pie, put some whip cream on it and eat it" says Greg as he smears the cow pie. It's awesome how excited he gets lookin at pasture and cow crap.

*Wesley Borque* I believe that Greg has stated that he uses a mixture of *one quart of Crossbow* herbicide, mixed into *5 gallons of red diesel fuel.* Which must be painted onto the cut surface of the stump within 3 hours of the cut being made; otherwise it will not achieve its objective. Greg just recently went over this subject within the past couple of weeks. Scrolling down his list of recent videos should bring up his methodology. I can't recall the exact placement of the crossbow/diesel fuel mix on the cut surface of the stump, but I do recall that the placement with the brush is critical to a complete kill. Spraying is not something that Greg recommends.

i love grep saying and "im taping with one hand!" haha if only we were still filming onto tape

What solar charger are you using on that fence?

What paint do you use to paint the trees

Great tip!

greg would you share witch solar charger you are using thanks chuck

Does anyone know where to order those insulated ring step in posts that he is using? Can't find them in the USA.

What do you mean by painting cut thorn trees?

What are you painting the tree stumps with to keep them from growing back?

What do you paint the trees with

I have 4 little Dexter's that I rotate between 2 - 8 acre pastures and a 4 acre pasture. I leave them on the 8 acres for 2 weeks and the 4 acre for a week. Is this even worth it? Or do I need to greatly reduce the paddock size ? I don't really have much in terms of water infrastructure each pasture has a pond and that's kinda dictates the paddock size at the moment.

Sorry, what is painting the cutted tree's ?

Hey Greg, can you explain what you mean by “painting the thorn trees”? I have A TON of mesquite threes! Do you just paint the stump like with normal house paint? Super curious. THANK YOU!

Good morning Sir. What do you paint the cut trees with?

Do you keep your cattle in kraal

Pumkin Pie ? HAHAHAHAHA

With my hair sheep my back fence is not even hot but they respect it and works well. Only the forward polybraid is hot.

16 joules!!!

Move animals twice daily (in the morning and at night)...moving animals at 2pm (hottest time of the day) = plants release the most sugar = protein for animals, just make sure there is shade and water for the animals...if you are in spring flush and there has hardly been any rain/moisture make sure to put a back fence so animals will not return and over graze plants...plants need full recovery (8-10 inches tall) before being grazed again...only allow animals to prune/eat the tips of the plants and move them...the longer the leave of the plant is left the quicker the plant will be able to regrow because a bigger leaf collects more solar energy...animals will only graze about 80% of the paddock and not touch the other 20% which is okay because you need seedheads for the following year...unless you increase animal amount + animal diversity + smaller paddock for short period then you might get 100% grazed plants...Manure with a pond in the middle plus layers = healthy animal/balanced diet...use water point cattle lanes for no more than 2 days or else you will create a cattle bare/eroded dirt lane...use terrogate pig tail as back fence corner post by inserting the electric wire into the tail first, then step in the pig tail post to the ground, grab an O'Brien step in post, place at an angle on the side of the pig tail, then push step in post at an angle into the ground, grab another step in post and step it into the ground over the base of the pig tail so the pig tail has no chance of popping up the ground...then grab your gear rear, put polybrade into the tail, spin reer 3 times around the pig tail and hang gear reer through tail...never touch any metal parts of the reer or you will get shocked...Greg is using a 16 joule solar charger...Appreciate you Greg!!!!

🎉

I'll bet your pastures are really standing out compared to the neighbors' with that low rainfall. We've had enough, but we're 400 miles closer to the Gulf.

Ah, I scrolled down into the comments and saw the paint application

The weather this year has been a little funky.

Greg how many acres do you have and how many head do you run?

Greg you must use tougher poly wire than I do. I tried wrapping the wire around the hook of the reel and it put a kink in the little metal wires of the poly wire. If I did that every time, the metal wires would be broken in dozen of places. What I usually do put in two pig tails very close to each other and then I just lay the reel over the top between the pigtails and rest it on the ground on it's handle or on its side. No wrapping and no kinks.

How do you guys wean your heifers?

Paint your thorn bushes? What do you mean?

I'm ready, love your videos and your nose!

What product do you use for the thorn trees ?

What do you paint the trees with? (Just saw Bruce's comment. Thanks!)
