Rotational Grazing on a Diversified Farm Video

A huge thank you to Tyron Williams and Williams Enterprises for allowing us to shoot on their farm.

Rotational grazing can be an important part of a sustainable farming system that considers conservation of natural resources, farm economic sustainability, and produce safety. This video provides an overview of using rotational grazing from a whole-farm planning perspective. While having livestock on a produce farm introduces produce safety risks, using cover crops and grazing-to-harvest intervals can benefit soil health while keeping produce safe. USDA NRCS provides support to help farmers implement rotational grazing.
