Cattle Grazing Management Session 1.1: The Grass Growth Cycle - Part 1

Grass has always been the "ugly stepsister" of American agriculture, pushed aside for corn and soybeans. But what if I told you that 500 years ago, North America produced more food using perennial grass than it does today with all our modern technology? In this powerful session of the "Farm Like a Lunatic" series, Lunatic Farmer Joel Salatin dives into the foundational role of grass in soil development and productive Cattle Grazing Management. Discover the "marvels of grass" and why understanding its cycle is key to building healthy soil.

Key Takeaways:

- The original rich soils of the American landscape were built by a grass-oriented culture, not chemical fertilizers.

- Grass acts as a solar panel, using photosynthesis to convert sunbeams into physical carbon structure that feeds the soil.

- Grass grows in a definite cycle (the Sigmoid curve) and must be pruned by animals to restart growth and reach its full potential.
