🎙️ Episode Title: Managing for Animal, Pasture, and Soil Health
📝 Featured Speaker: Greg Brann

In this episode, Greg Brann emphasizes the importance of regenerative grazing practices for maintaining healthy animals, pastures, and soil. Ruminants, like cattle, play a crucial role in this process, cycling nutrients back into the soil through manure and urine, and helping speed up the improvement of soil health.

🔑 Key Points Covered:

Ruminant Animals and Soil Health:
Ruminants help improve soil fertility by cycling nutrients through manure and urine, speeding up soil health improvements by three times.

Grazing Management and Soil Health:
Grazing cool-season forages at 8-10 inches promotes root growth, moisture retention, and a healthy environment for soil life.

Soil Fertility and Nutrient Management:
Maintaining a balanced soil pH (6.8 is optimal) is essential for soil life. Regular soil tests are recommended to manage macronutrients and secondary nutrients.

Strategies for Improving Degraded Land:
Techniques such as unrolling hay and using cattle to pug wet soils can increase carbon levels and restore productivity in degraded areas.

Herd Management and Soil Health:
Proper herd management, including natural fly control and selective culling, helps maintain a healthy pasture ecosystem.
