Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bunch of Sheep on Every Farm Nations have taken up the implements of warfare and the wail goes up for food and clothing. Hunger is being keenly felt by the peoples of Europe and the poor of our own land are in need of food. All eyes are turned to America. In meeting the emergency sheep occupy a prominent place. No animal approaches the sheep in converting weeds and waste into wool and mutton. There is a wealth of food and raiment in the wasted grass and weeds of barn lots, fields, and roadsides. Let there be a band of ewes with fat lambs on every suitable farm. It is not the object of this booklet to describe alone the bright side of sheep raising. Our purpose has been to publish facts. The facts presented are taken from letters received from 5,000 farmers living in all parts of the United States, giving their experiences in sheep growing. d104books and works on Live Stock Husbandry are valuable, but we believe that the actual experiences of men engaged in raising sheep, told in their own words, will be helpful to beginners as well as those of experience.

Download or read book The Art and Science of Grazing written by Sarah Flack and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grazing management might seem simple: just put livestock in a pasture and let them eat their fill. However, as Sarah Flack explains in The Art and Science of Grazing, the pasture/livestock relationship is incredibly complex. If a farmer doesn't pay close attention to how the animals are grazing, the resulting poorly managed grazing system can be harmful to the health of the livestock, pasture plants, and soils. Well-managed pastures can instead create healthier animals, a diverse and resilient pasture ecosystem, and other benefits. Flack delves deeply below the surface of "let the cows eat grass," demonstrating that grazing management is a sophisticated science that requires mastery of plant and animal physiology, animal behavior, and ecology. She also shows readers that applying grazing management science on a working farm is an art form that calls on grass farmers to be careful observers, excellent planners and record-keepers, skillful interpreters of their observations, and creative troubleshooters. The Art and Science of Grazing will allow farmers to gain a solid understanding of the key principles of grazing management so they can both design and manage successful grazing systems. The book's unique approach presents information first from the perspective of pasture plants, and then from the livestock perspective--helping farmers understand both plant and animal needs before setting up a grazing system. This book is an essential guide for ruminant farmers who want to be able to create grazing systems that meet the needs of their livestock, pasture plants, soils, and the larger ecosystem. The book discusses all the practical details that are critical for sustained success: how to set up a new system or improve existing systems; acreage calculations; paddock layout; fence and drinking water access; lanes and other grazing infrastructure; managing livestock movement and flow; soil fertility; seeding and reseeding pastures; and more. The author includes descriptions of real grazing systems working well on dairy, beef, goat, and sheep farms in different regions of North America. The book covers pasture requirements specific to organic farming, but will be of use to both organic and non-organic farms.
