🎙️ Episode Title: Multi-Species Grazing and Fencing By Russ Wilson

In this episode, Russ Wilson shares four decades of experience managing a 220-acre adaptive grazing system. He breaks down the best practices for multispecies grazing, detailing techniques like follow-the-leader grazing, paddock management, and livestock bonding to optimize land use and soil health.

Russ also dives deep into fencing essentials, covering wire spacing, high-tensile wire specs, and energizer settings for cattle, sheep, and goats. With no deworming since 2012 for cattle and 2020 for sheep, his approach to parasite management is a game-changer for graziers looking to improve livestock health naturally.

🔑 Key Points Covered:

1️⃣ Follow-the-Leader Grazing: Rotating finishers, cow-calf pairs, and sheep/goats through paddocks for parasite control and optimal nutrition.
2️⃣ Paddock Management: The role of soil improvement, rest periods, and manure distribution in regenerative grazing.
3️⃣ Fencing Specifications: Six and seven-wire high-tensile fencing, 12-inch spacing, and 36-joule energizer settings for secure containment.
4️⃣ Temporary Fencing Systems: Why quality poly braid wire and mini reel systems make grazing more efficient.
5️⃣ Livestock Bonding: Training cattle to bond with sheep and goats over 60 days for effective multispecies integration.

🌱 Actionable Insights:

✅ Implement lower stock density grazing for healthier pastures.
✅ Monitor 24-hour growth rates to adjust grazing schedules.
✅ Use 180,000 PSI 12.5 gauge high-tensile wire for long-lasting fencing.
✅ Invest in quality temporary fencing supplies to streamline rotations.
