Information and Training for Turning Livestock into Land Management Tools
 

Welcome


E-Chievement Award Winner

Sometimes the best new technology isn't a new gadget, a new implement, a new seed mix or a new feed supplement. Sometimes the best new technology simply requires you to use your brain and your animals in a new way.

At Livestock for Landscapes you'll learn Principles based on decades of animal behavior research that help us understand why animals eat what they eat and go where they go.

Even better, you'll learn about ways you can use these principles to turn your livestock into an economical and environmentally friendly tool for:

  • sustainable agriculture and local food production,
  • managing or reducing weeds,
  • reducing fire danger; and
  • creating or improving wildlife habitat and biodiversity

Turn Cows Into Weed Managers

Cows can eat thistles, leafy spurge, knapweeds, black mustard and more!

Using some simple steps anyone can train a cow to eat a new weed in as little as 5 days for $3.40/animal and 8 to 10 hours in labor.

Goats for Vegetation Management

My six year reseach project explored the best ways to manage goats for fire control. The results are useful for land managers and those interested in running a prescribed grazing service.

If you run a prescribed grazing service or are trying to find a service provider visit the Grazing Service Providers Page to learn more.
