Managed Grazing: Forage Based Agriculture

Rachel Bouressa is a grazier, working her family farm in the Town of Royalton. She serves on the state's Natural Resources board and is the President of the local Wisconsin Farmers Union chapter. As an Ambassador for GrassWorks, her talk discusses how rotational managed grazing systems work, and what sets them apart from other livestock agricultural practices. We’ll learn that managed grazing supports perennial landscapes, good environmental stewardship, wildlife habitat, animal welfare, and human nutrition. We’ll hear about Wisconsin’s grazing community’s values, the economics of grass-based farming, and how consumers play a vital role in advancing this resilient method
