Weeds are often as nutritous as alfalfa so why not turn them into forage?

When cows eat your weeds, they gain weight at expected rates, breed back normally, and best of all, reduce your weed control costs.

We've trained cows to eat:

  • Canada, distaff, Italian, musk and milk thistle
  • leafy spurge
  • spotted and diffuse knapweed
  • Dalmatian toadflax
  • black mustard
  • and more!

You can do it too! Click here to read more....

"The bonus was that they not only ate the milk thistle in the pasture, but they ate the Italian thistle and the black mustard.
It was easy. You can do it!"

Joe Morris, a rancher in San Juan Bautista, CA taught some of his cows to eat milk thistle in March of 2007 after attending a workshop

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.
