Editorial Reviews
Henry Forgues, Vermont dairy farmer
"Bill Murphy's book saved our farm and changed our life! It made it possible for our son to come back home to the farm, which now that it is based on pasture will support two families, rather than going bankrupt as we were when we fed in confinement. "
Book Description
This book explains in detail why and how to use management intensive grazing, and what to expect from its use for most kinds of livestock. I provide many examples to illustrate fine points, including producing milk, beef, and lamb on pasture alone, nutrient cycling, grounding energizers, recovery periods, economics, and much more. I present everything that I learned during 17 years of using Voisin management on my own farm, and answer all questions that have been asked me during conferences and farm visits with farmers. This book shows a way to increase your farm's profitability and reduce its labor demand -- thereby improving your quality of life -- while properly and responsibly caring for the land and the plants and animals that live on it.
