Ear to the Ground 376: Cross-Boundary Grazing

https://landstewardshipproject.org/wp-content/uploads/Ear-to-the-Ground-No.-376.mp3

One farmer says he benefits from grazing publicly-managed wildlife habitat. But what does a natural resource professional think about bringing bovines into a natural biome? 

More Information

• Hoosier Ridge Ranch
• LSP’s Grazing & Soil Health Web page
• MN DNR Whitewater Wildlife Management Area

You can find LSP Ear to the Ground podcast episodes on Spotify, Pandora, iTunes, YouTube, and other podcast platforms.

 

While the Minnesota Department of Natural Resource’s Christine Johnson (left, green jacket) looks on, Eric Heins of Hoosier Ridge Ranch describes how his livestock operation balances profitability with natural habitat restoration.
