Loving hearing about Jim talk about his life!

This is a very good explanation of regenerative farming. I truly enjoyed the podcast.

Aren't sheep bad for rotational grazing ? As far as i know they pull the entire plant and its roots doesnt that damage the soil especially when it comes to water infiltration and reduce microorganisms diversity that need roots ?

Just wanted to say you have quite the radio voice and I appreciate the info I get out of these podcasts

I’m not a rancher, I’m not a farmer, but I’m so interested in this subject. I wish we could regenerate New Mexico where I live. It is sad to see the degradation of this land.

Wendell Berry is worth reading Cal. As your guest said … The Unsettling of America was pretty spot on … and not just for America! I’m familiar with farming in Australia and NZ and it resonates here as well.

As someone who owns property in southern Texas I always learn something new from listening to him. A very knowledgeable rancher.

Good Video. Another excellent speaker.

Could your guest please expand the positive aspect of grass root contraction over the long term? 44:14

Great interview with the inspiring Will Harris of White Oak Pastures.

When I’m walking I carry O’Brien step in and fiberglass posts with screw on braided wire holders in a doubled up leg of some old pants with a shoulder strap through the belt loops, a geared reel with 9 metal polybraid, and a cordless drill with a long drill bit to punch holes for the posts in very dry compacted soil that I can’t step a post into here in sw Oklahoma - because of the dry rocky soil my 3-6 earth ground rods at my speed rite solar charger isn’t always effective (8-10,000 hot but cows ignore it) so I’m needing to try adding a ground wire below my hot wire and hope that works

Anyone use those Gallagher all in one step ins?

Thanks for sharing

I also use white O’Brien post and I have a few blue. Snow is the only trouble with all white. The reel slipping is usually just a misalignment on the shaft. You can usually slide them back on with a swift hit on the side of the reel.

I’m using a hodgepodge of fence posts, mainly due to the very high shipping costs to Hawaii. I like the ring-top posts, as I can carry a lot of them at a time. I also really like the Kiwitech products. Their fiberglass post system is very flexible and configurable. You can add multiple clips to the fiber glass rods and slide them up or down as needed which I do on the fly over our very uneven terrain. The spools are lightweight and work with another clip system that is something of a Transformer widget - the Release Hook lets you hang a spool on a permanent fence, on a fiberglass tread-in post, and has this “remote” release feature that lets you undo the tag end of a polywire from the spool end across your pasture with a couple of tugs so you don’t have to walk all the way to the tag end to unhook. Hard to describe with words, but Kencove has some videos, and Kiwitech has a number of tutorials on UA-cam. I bought several geared reels from Amazon - probably cheap knockoffs of the name brand stuff. They are okay, but heavy when fully loaded with polybraid. I use these on longer runs and if there’s no permanent fence to hang them on in the middle of the pasture, I make a stand with two Tractor Supply fiberglass step in posts (with similar hooks as the O’brien posts) holding up a ringtop post for the reel to hang on. I use the second or third set of hooks to hang the reel, so it is down low to the ground without touching the ground. Think of a capital H, but with the horizontal line closer to the ground. Really quite stable at that level. I also don’t use that H reel stand for anything but holding the reel off the ground. Tension on the polybraid is maintained by other posts, so the suspended reel hangs off the the non-grazing side of the wire. If I plan things well enough, I will have extra line on the reel to close out a section when I change directions.

Hi. I just came across your channel. Great stuff. I am wanting to learn more about grazing native warm season grasses. I have recently rented a pasture with natives and some wetland areas. I am more familiar with cool season grasses and quite dryland pasture. I would like to better my grazing on this pasture. It got ahead of me last year with growth. As a result, by mid summer, the quality was in decline. Thanks for the help.

Really good stuff!

Great discussion! Thanks!

I love the Grazing grass podcast please keep making more

We're nearby Jake, in Grand Junction, working a couple acres of desert grass - thanks for sharing!

I’m over in McKinney

What a great podcast! I really liked the content. Really nice take on the issues getting into ag and especially grass based! 10/10!
