Excellent points that are not discussed enough. 1) *EFFECTIVE* rainfall 2) Brix determines req'd dry matter intake. Best explanstion I've heard. The chart was very helpful 3) Animal impact promoting NEW growth even months later. Photo of buffle grass pastures across fence was impressive. Low stock density side was in worse shape months later than high density side 4) Variable stocking TYPE & rate. Higher rain in one year provides opportunity for cow/calf producer to bring in a one time load of stockers to harvest "excess" forage. Great presentation Fernando

i never know exactly if these types of webinars are talking about irrigated or non-irrigated pasture. i wish there was something that talked specifically about the difference and how to do a grazing plan with a ranch that has both summer(irrigated) and winter (non irrigated) land.

Great presentation Fernando. Where can I download the AU calculation spreadsheet you presented?

How come values for KG/ha and lbs/ac are so different? @19:34

Had to stop the vidio and do some conversations i am 1.5 acres per animal unit and i noticed a big corilation between rain fall and animal units per acre. Not a perfect conversion but close. I know that water storage with carbon can be achieved i get an averageof 48 inchesa year. But i will make a swamp if i can not get drainage. Wondering if i will actually loose carrying capacity if i do store more water. Im still going to do this i would jest like to know if anyone knows where this will lead me

If you have compaction issues and poor aggregation, more than likely have anaerobic conditions which are not conducive for beneficial soil microbiology. Need to increase OM in the soil!

obviously I would need more context to fully answer your question. in short, we need to focus on improving soil aggregation to increase water infiltration, retention and aeration for soil microbiology to thrive. If there is an increase in soil water moisture content and poor soil aggregation then the little pore space will be filled with water; I would expect to see water logging and therefore a decrease in both CC and nutrient quality of that forage. that is what we commonly see in compacted soils.

@@fernandofalomir412 Let's say I'm in the Netherlands and there's canals everywhere. And it seems there is excessive water and cattle goes into barns for the winter. How can I deal with those circumstances, because I would like to have cattle out the whole year.
