Quebec Organic Dairy Conference Feb 23 & March 2 2021

Increasing the dry matter intake of pastures: how far can you go? Presented by Lactanet

This workshop will examine how to meet the needs of livestock while using their grazing behavior to improve pastures. Higher or lower stocking densities, greater or shorter pre-grazing heights, and decisions on how long livestock are in the paddock, how much to trample, or short duration of grazing are tools to improve pastures. By better understanding and using these “grazing tools” we can alter the composition of pasture plant species, pasture productivity and quality, soil health, and livestock performance. This webinar will also include information from ongoing research on 100% grass-fed (grain-free) dairy farms
