pasture rotation

Pasture rotation is a farming practice where livestock are moved between different sections of pasture regularly. This approach allows certain areas of land to rest and recover, preventing overgrazing and soil degradation. By rotating livestock, farmers promote healthier pasture growth, improve forage quality, and reduce parasite buildup. This sustainable system helps maintain productive land, supports animal health, and can increase overall farm efficiency. Proper planning ensures each section has enough time to regenerate before livestock return, creating a balanced and environmentally friendly grazing management method.
