Mob of cows steam rolled entire grass paddock to replenish litter bank. 

If the Boys don't make excellent cattlemen it will not be your fault , your videos are the best of the best . You got it all beautiful family ,land and best cattle and best system. Best wishes from Ireland.

The fellows need microphones. Beautiful foliage and animals.

You the best am in Africa I love cows so much

Awesome explanation!!

I love that if you intern for Greg you also get to attend the Greg Judy course on Public Speaking. It is a rare and valuable talent and those young men will benefit for the rest of their lives from getting the encouragement to present themselves professionally.

I wonder how long it would take that grass (plus clover, and other plant life) to fully recover? At about 8:40 the light is so that one can REALLY see what the vegetation looks like after 290 heads of cattle have been there for a short while! What I would love to see one time is a time lapse of how grass regenerates over the next number of days (if it isn't even faster). That would be a great way to see how it recovers and how long that takes! Actually that is an aspect to grass that some people might not know: that it has been after driven or walked on, after having been trampled, grass in fact can actively repair itself. It 'glues' the more or less loose parts back together in those places where cracks and breaks have appeared with latex-like compounds it contains, and it also regrows plant cells that are damaged beyond repair. It is be cause of that capacity that grass can take so much 'abuse' and of course that also is why it is so suitable for application on for instance football fields.

I just like how you explain and show about how the cows eat and leave the grass. I never thought of tramped grass as a protector of the pasture and also how it helps keep the moisture in. Thanks Greg, Isaac and Ben.... Boys don't be afraid to speak up..

It would be neat to see one of these areas every week or two as it recovers. Looks amazing!

God bless the Tree Swallows !! they do make me happy !!

Seeing cows grazing on grass just makes me happy. Thank you for not force feeding them grain and soy all day.

Can you please make a videos about the mineral cart 🙏🏻

Anyone else just shed a tear at the sight of that beautiful pasture. Literally makes me emotional just thinking about how much the cattle love it.

Hey Greg I see something in your video that I don't ever see until today in my dad yard. I am not sure but or sound crazy but I think it a purple flower clover I am sure if you ever see this before please let me know

I watched a video showing how much soil had been grown in 2 years using planned grazing, they had put a fence post in with a steel bar going horizontal at the bottom of the post and touching the ground when they put it in, that steel bar was 2 inches below the surface two years later. You could do make the same experiment maybe.

Those young fella's you've got there are getting a real education. And they seem to be real enthusiastic.👍🏻😎

Looks like you nailed it on the paddock size.

Thank-you. I keep forgetting that the summer grass etc is a green manure *as well as* forage for the lifestock and, *as well* as feed to the soil biology. Back in the day (1976-82ish) when I had three or four ewes and their lambs on a one acre field, grazed in quarters just for the spring to autumn at Mint Cottage, Downe in Kent (the village where Charles Darwin lived), we were doing just this. Happy times!

Those are some beautiful cows.

Enjoy watching your videos. Awesome!!!

Mr. Judy, when my sheep see me setting up new paddock, they want to jump the temp fence into the new space because they know when they see me with stakes and a reel, they are moving to fresh. Would love to stop this behavior and can only think I'll have to set up several paddocks at once and be real sneaky about putting up new ones in the rotation. How do you do it?

My free choice mineral and feeder are scheduled to arrive today, cattle should be here next Tuesday'ish. I'm so excited I could just scream. I've put in countless hours of hot, sweaty work on fencing, water and planning....I hope it's enough and everything goes smoothly. It's been literally years in the making.

Nice to see you do not fret about seed heads. My pasture too is ahead of itself. Working on finishing one steer for butcher in three weeks. Let the herd go for the candy now.

Hello from argentina, excellent job!! and very generous to share your wisdom!!, how many acres of your system pasture you need for 300 cows in your area??

Six foot seven!! I just thought Isaac was short

Beautiful as usual Greg. Hold that rain! Sure a beautiful place to live. Ticks or not. I got desert on one side and city on the other. No fun.

Just watching a few vids of Greg’s and his message, starts to take ‘root’. 🤔 The Land determines the Size of the Herds.

my biggest problem is how do you take an old tobacco field and turn it into this? I'm trying but running out of grass

You know how to grow pasture. I was amazed how it looked when I picked up my fence post. When are you going to make a video on how to make a corner post fences? I am still waiting on my post pounder so I’m digging the holes by hand. Thanks for all the videos. Have a great one!

Eating a little garlic bread or cloves during dinner throughout the week will help keep the ticks and mosquitoes away. When you start sweating they'll sense it and somewhat leave you alone. Or enough beer. 😂 Great looking forage and video! 🇺🇸🐮💪❤️

the ticks are strong this year, I had two deer ticks actually get attached to my head, and my hairs buzz cut. I hate the tiny ticks worse than a regular sized one.

It doesnt have to be the musical Oklahoma grain vs cattle. If we went back to mixed farming and scaled it to 3000 acres all this prep work and grazing you did and carbon banking a producer could land roll this spray it and zero till drill this in the spring. Think of the crop they could grow and the reduction of inputs and labour.

Great job u guys

Going to be retiring soon and want to give this everything I have. All of this seems like common sense. As I drive through cattle country in my area no one is following this methodology. Same cattle same awful looking pasture every day week in week out. Sure this method is more labor intensive but it's not unreasonable. The reward is obvious. My thought process is the healthier the pasture the healthier the cattle. Faster growing cattle. To the market sooner cattle. The ROI is better.

You need a directional mic that plugs in. Your hands need to be heard better and these videos are permanent for future generations

Move the water lane over a little so you don't have 2, 3 days of trampling on the small width lane.

Hey Greg, I visited Don Jackson's place a couple weeks ago, and he says hello. My place is small (less than 30 acres, 20 cows/calves total) and probably over-grazed. I am thinking I need to decrease my herd size and let the grass catch back up. I haven't done a soil test, and thinking about adding chicken litter to boost fertility. Anything else I should consider?

I just passed a nice farm in Connecticut. Maybe 40 acres of field. I pass it all the time he has 8 or 10 belted Galloway. He gives them about half the farm for constant grazing. My point is he gets the rest hay looks so poor short no nutrients now mine you he's a veterinarian. Locks them up in the winter. Kills me to watch the madness.

Greg Judy have you ever thought about getting chickens to take care of the tick problem and flies?

Revolutionary 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

How far can animals be from their water source? My property has a lot of trees and bushes to get lost in. Hope they'd be able to find the pond at all times.

Why all the seperate minerals. Is there not a combined mineral mix that could be used?

Remember, encourage wild turkey flocks on your farm! They eat deer ticks!

Do you ever put up bat houses to deal with mosquitos and night bugs?

Greg, do like it when you have the young fellas talking but it would be nice if they would talk where the mic would pick up what they are saying. Apparently they are to far away from the camera.

When you talk about the baby calves, you say "fly Tags", Is that just to help the babies growth rate because the flies affect them more or did you mean they are regular tags? I've been reading, can't seem to find reference to if the fly tags are detrimental to the dung beetles, seems they would be the least invasive for of treatment.

Hey Greg...but you need to have enough pasture to let that steam rolled paddock rest for over a month and a half correct?

Good video and I hope the two young men watch it... Helpful criticisms/critiques .... Look out at what you want to focus on, point at it, then turn back to the camera and talk loud and clear..... Greg has an advantage by holding the camera. and knowing how loud and clear a person has to voice the topic to be heard. More time on camera will fix it. Run in front of the camera, don't wait for the shot to find you (Think 'Cole The Cornstar'. Don't know who he is, well he's just a 22 year old farmer trying to get some stuff done. In less than a year he went from 16k Subs to over 300k Subs) then just go at it.

Graze, trample rest, graze trample, rest ... Greg, that would make a great t-shirt logo

Hay Greg do your cows eat the grass which has gorn to head?

snake chaps .. jus sayin

I let my heard into my hay fields after 2nd cutting and every time I get crab grass or swamp grass spots starting in my fields if left alone it spreads so I think I'm going to just limit them to my rocky pastures that I cant hay maybe because where I live it just not a good idea,another farmer up the road switched to beef and all his fields were and are ruined he has to plow all this crap under and reseed his fields,if you give me a email or a number I would like to send you a picture or video of what happens to are fields and get your input.

I wonder who has the job of counting the flies eaten by tree swallows daily.

I wonder how this would work in Northern California in our Mediterranean climate. We have short very wet winters, 30 inches or more of rain in a few months, then virtually no rain for around seven months. We have no management because areas that used to be grazed are now "protected" and we don't have the numbers of wild elk, deer etc we had before the massive population boom. The grass lands are just left to grow weak weeds and then brown. The soil must have no organic material as it is hard packed clay that sheds water when it is hard pan, then turns into the worst slick mud you can imagine, (I was in the Army, so I've seen a lot of mud) but can't hold onto the water and we have floods. We have unbelievable fire problems in October as everything is so dry. There are millions of acres that are no longer allowed to be used for grazing that I believe should have ruminant animals cycled on by knowledgeable ranchers.
