Pastures from the Plant and Livestock Perspective (Virtual)

Join the Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario for the first of a two-part series with Sarah Flack, an author, consultant, and speaker who specializes in grass-based livestock farming systems.

How do perennial pasture plants grow both above and below ground, and how do our grazing management decisions create more productive pastures with more high-quality forages.  This session will look at the practical application of basic guidelines of good grazing management and pasture ecosystem monitoring, based on plant physiology and soil health.  We also need to understand the nutritional and behavioral needs of cows, sheep, and goats.  So this session will also delve into how to design grazing systems which make it easier to maximize pasture intake by the herd or flock, while also improving plant and soil health.

There will be time for a break, as well as to ask your grazing questions directly to Sarah during this webinar.
