- Greg combines herds to double recovery times in summer slump. The tool of rest is one of your most powerful practices to implement in drought periods. For more tips on profitable grazing, check out my books on our website: greenpasturesfarm.net.
Id love to take a week to just follow you around and pick at the sheer mountain of knowledge you have. My day has been made, and my seratonin is imeasurable
YES, the GJ Bale Unroller is the BEST! Our herd can now all eat at the same time. We love it they love it!
Possessing the Promised Land!👑👑
Gorgeous Greg, just gorgeous. It's so cool when having to "move cattle" amounts to actually leading the cattle instead of driving them. I have so much fun basically asking my cows to come to me where I want them to go rather than having to try to forcibly push them. They're so easy to work with, rather than against them like some of my family has for years. I set up a new paddock, open the gate and holler "Here girls" and here they come at a run....it's just so awesome.
Haha, grass heaven! I can't remember if I told you we got a new place or not. It's not big, and half woods, but enough to run a few cows maybe. Got a milk cow (I like milking) and a few local hair sheep to start managing the grass. I hope to build that little flock of hair sheep to help us buy some south polls in the future and find a lease in the area. It may take us a while, but I look forward to building it all up slowly!😊
This is so beautiful.
Your life's work is so beautiful!
15:52 Ahhh Greg, I stopped to make a comment, when I looked back at the video at that time point I just thought how beautiful, that scene would make a beautiful painting ... and that's where you work! :)
Some beautiful animals there, Greg. Amazing how one man and a 4 wheeler can lead 300,000 plus pounds of cattle! Your interns seem to really love what they do, just like you. Peace, you guys
I love most that the cows trust you…you never “steer” them wrong
I can’t wait to get started!!! Been my dream for years. You are the best, heal the land. Thanks again for your time and the love you put into every video you make.God bless
Your pastures look great, as always. Thanks for the continued education! We’ve been lucky with rain in middle GA too. That and the new polybraid we put up in the spring have our pastures looking better than I can remember.
It was your early evening and my morning! Thanks Mr.Judy.
Greg, you have incredible interns! Your tutelage is really obvious. It’s a win-win for all three of you. Kudos to you, Ben, and Isaac.
I wish more people did this type of farming in Ireland. I'm not even a farmer but I get saddened by looking at these fields along the road with way to short grass and cows or sheep board and grazing.
Thank you so much Brother Greg! Making progress up here in northern New York! Every video you make is helpful for me to keep going!
They look fat, healthy and happy!
Have a good day 🌻🌻🌻
Beautiful Greg. God has truly blessed you my friend.
Every day
Fresh and diversified food.
Nice hike for exercise, digestion and entertainment.
You can see the excitement of youngsters.
It’s cow summer camp for the rich family.
thank you for doing all these videos... ive learned so much from you greg judy
Pure inspiration. Thank you.
We need rain here in Iron County. Seems like all these showers are going north of us. Thankful for those bluestem pastures for the sheep.
Great time this morning Greg.....my neighbors would be calling me if all our cows were mooing and carrying on...good times!
I dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid lost the login password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Draven Bryson Instablaster ;)
@Kelvin Briggs thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Kelvin Briggs it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account !
@Draven Bryson you are welcome :)
That 014 with the tawny hide is such a beautiful calf, and I think he knows it too -- he's always posing for the camera!
Keep up the great work Greg!!! You need to do a video on you clipping your grass (for those of us new to farm life).
Good brother !! Great . Love your it 👍🙏✌️🌨🌨🌨🌧 it’s raining here too
Hey Greg, Just a thought, you might not need it, but the night before, you could put up a sign-especially for short-cutters, must be in a hurry-that says, "Cattle Planned On Road Tomorrow, From 10 a.m. To Noon," or whatever.
Such a wonderful operation. In my area there are large Angus farms on small acreage, eating down to the dirt and round bales 12 months a year, also messy sloppy mud. Kinda sad.
Same up here In Massachusetts.
There's also a lot of that in non-industrial traditional cattle raising in Europe. When you see a team of oxen pulling a plow on a muddy field or a totally dead dry field. So many people see the traditional breeds eating the grass to the bare ground, worse than a golf course and they ooh and aaah with "so beautiful so traditional". The cattle growers themselves know nothing else.
"A rabbit had to pack his lunch to get across the field" 🤣
They look so healthy n good.
Man that Hereford cow at 4:23 looks good
Hi Greg. It's nice to see your cattle on there pastures . I've searched one of your videos in which you mention to not keep a cow that doesn't loose it's winter coat when summer comes. Do you have a clip that goes into this in more detail.( Thanks John c. UK)
Amazing 😉!
I have three steers living on 2.5 acres. They’ve been there a year but I’ve owned the land for 4 years. It will be interesting to see what changes they make to the soil (if any)…
But in summer it’s usually trash 😆
could be cool if you could do some drone shots in between the video camera shots
We are on our way! Now is Laramie WY and soon in Texas!!
You are correct one can how healthy a herd is by the calves for they are healthy the herd is also.
Mooovin 🐮 that 👍
Good morning. Love the videos. What is your answer to overgrown pasture in August. We have a section of the farm that we could not get to because of incomplete fence and I am just grazing it for the first time now. It is in excess of 3 feet tall and has seed heads and I am passing sheep over it quickly (I have more grass than animals right now-35 Illinois acres with 60 sheep). I’m inclined to clip it but I don’t want to mess up my winter stock pile. What percentage of your total grazed acre should be winter stockpiled?
What's the farthest away from a public road you can be among all the tracts of land you work? Is there any place you can be where it's, say, a mile away from a public road?
Been wanting to ask that, given your description of the road at the beginning of the video, seemed as good a place as any to ask. Thanks in advance!
I think your cattle get acting lessons. They look incredible on video
They’re paid actors for sure.
Green pastures paid 😂
What do you use to control ticks; your caws are clean
How many bulls do you have with you herd and what size is your herd? What are the oldest bulls you have. What do you do with the older bulls?
Greg, I've sent 2 emails regarding the carrying capacity and the steers that you currently have available. Wondering if maybe they got hung up in your spam folder? Reaching out another way. Thanks.
About how many intact bulls do you sell per year? When do you normally sell them? Do you sell any through private treaty off of the farm?
What happened to the flerd? I thought you ran the sheep and cattle together
❤️🥰😍😘
Do you sell retire heifers to beef
What breed are those beautiful cows, Greg?
South Poll
🐊🇺🇸🦅👍
EVERYONE!!! LISTEN TO GREG...
😁👍👌✌🖖😎
Greg now a days are there any cattle in your herd that were not born on your farm? Are you always on the hunt for new genetics to introduce?
99% are born on our farm. Occasionally I will bring in a new heifer, but it seems they never perform as well as the ones born on our farm.
These cows are not excited about the relocation. Are they thinking grilling steaks and hamburgers?
All work is cool weather work. Give me zero I'm good to go not 85 plus.
You gotta milk those cows!
That one cow running out in front of you reminded me of a Democrat crossing the road. They run out to block you, but then they slow down and saunter in front of you not a care, not a hurry. That one cow ran into the path you were driving, then slowed down to a walk.
4 pounds per day of gaining....just on grass?....i dont think so
In the spring coming out of winter, the compensatory gain is over 4 lbs a day on good forage. The key is to make sure they have access to all the plant tips that they can eat each day with twice daily moves.
Those cattle are spoiled !@@! LOLOLOL
