Can't wait for this series of videos. I just drilled in pasture mix in 8 acres in central va that's been crop farmed for 30 years. My grandfather used to run cows on it before than. Great content keep it coming!!!
“That’s going to take time and money.” That’s the challenge, to use as little time and money and still get a quality product. It will be interesting to see how you do it.
Thats about what im starting with, I would feel safe assuming that the majority of people watching will start with field like this and not 30 year old "greg judy" level pasture. Great video idea, i hope myself and others get a lot of valuable information.
I cleared my fence line with my 2 head. I suggest trying to graze or stock pile that area you think you need to bale and set up 3 strand electric and run that for the stockpile pasture
What about pigs? Then follow with, broadcast cover crop a day before you pull the pigs, then you can graze the cows on, cover crop mixes, probably do better then grasses after chemicals. And could start to add legumes and grasses to the mix over time, and also could roll out hay. Jordan Green, does this, but is generally in a wood lot. Im hoping to try this on some land im getting next year. Just a suggestion.
I’m not big on tilling. Ditto with chemical fertilizer. It seems these will set back the biological process in the soil. I would definitely consider density stocking and hay bombing. Congratulations on your addition! All the best!
I'm very curious. I've been doing a lot of brush clearing. My property was being taken over by osage orange. My pastures won't be pretty but hopefully can start to rejuvenate them.
Good work. Good plan. Don't be too aggressive with pH adjustment.
Looking forward to seeing the results! I don't have any good ideas haha.

I frost seed equine grass seed, so I’ll be curious if that makes the cut

Osage Orange, I bet there are deer nearby
You can't watch a change, if you don't measure it. Looking at field is not enough, you need to take measurements
Agree, we are taking soil samples and running the data. Along with 1ft soil blocks that we will photo.
