Hammer, when you start your trial plots, remember Gabe Brown’s suggestion that you commit to a 5 year experiment. There’s too much variability in weather, and trial and error in your methods to give up after a year or two. Speaking from experience here.

Wish I could incorporate livestock on my place, but that’s a bridge too far right now. Maybe someday.

Update from my two summer plots


No rain since planting Saturday. Not even a drop. I may be screwed here

BDA was grading 85% choice/prime on steers/culls on grass fed/finished in 24 months (I believe). I think they run a south poll cross. They had let a custom grazer run some of their opens off farm and they ended up with a charolais bull . They weren't keeping those specific cows, just getting them to finish out.

I made a mistake - Soil Health Academy is what we attended. Understanding Ag is the consultant company.
