rotational grazing
livestock farming
Quick Summary
Rotation grazing is a livestock farming practice where animals are moved between different pasture areas in a planned sequence. This allows the grazed plants time to recover and regrow before livestock return. This method is a component of regenerative agriculture, which aims to improve soil health and conserve land rather than just reduce environmental impact. By rotating livestock, farmers can help manage weeds and enrich the soil with natural fertilizer, contributing to a healthier ecosystem.12
