  I don’t have sheep at the moment as we sold when prices were high but I would definitely do it again and plan to get sheep to use between bananas next year again

  Don't the wood shavings eat a lot of nitrogen during its decomposition? Another doubt: I did not quite understand the product you are pouring into the soil. I got the word hydrolysis but I do not understand the previous word. Is it soy? How do you produce it? Please do keep posting these fantastic short videos. They are great !!!!

  Aren't they eating the plants' leaves? Furthermore, won't compaction become a likely problem?

• 
  @CraigForChange5 ай бұрын

  So no the cage keeps them from eating anything important. Frequently moving the cage and growing cover crops and perennials grasses with deep roots keep compaction completely at bay.

• 
  @diogosilva24755 ай бұрын

  @@CraigForChange, I do hope that you are right because your project is very, very interesting. However, I would ponder replacing the cattle with the goats. My experience tells me that compaction may become a huge issue because they are likely to stay on the same spot for a long time. At least, you should survey this experience with a tool to measure the compaction. Meanwhile, I wish all the best to your project.

• 
  @CraigForChange5 ай бұрын

  So we have a penetrometer we use and we do not leave them long at all. We make sure we keep 15cm of grass at a minimum so that takes care of it. We will add sheep into the mix at some point as well.

  I love animal tractors and ive never seen one for cows. How often do you move this per day typically with your stocking density? Do the cows test the tractor at all or push on it at all?

• 
  @CraigForChange5 ай бұрын

  So we move it about 10-12 times a day so it only works well with a dedicated person doing several cages or we can shift and use the hot wire if someone is keeping close watch with a bat latch system or cross wires frequently set.

  I forgot his name but richard something. we used that system because you can do around 500/1000 birds. if you have some shade cloth you can do more. you start out with them in the lil house then move them out as they get older and they only sleep in the house. Once they are really old they sit outside all day and night under the shade and you don't really need the little house anymore. you can put them out super late in the season and super early. honestly here in cali you can get away with doing it that way all year long if it's ducks. wonderful system :)

  plus, parts of the mullberry can be chip the branches can be feed whole to rabbits / goats or you can strip and chip to feed to cattle (or let cattle browest the vertical branches then cut them later for chipping. mullberry is really under used world wide. clumping Bamboo as well.

  @MistressOP6 ай бұрын

  that would work really well with hops. also with mini cattle. two high value items. they oddly sell well and mini cattle work really well in solar farms. but it's hard to really use them well other places. but they sell nicely as pets and this is really nice to put them near people and use to people combine with high value crop. like wine or what not. i'd probably not put this on a solar farm though. because moving this around. but for creators that need to be near people ie urban farming would be huge. a lot of time you got stock and you don't know what to do with all those extras to spread them out when they do there paid grazing. and get them use to humans at the same time. clumping bamboo would work nicely as well.

  Definitely would boost the nitrogen. We are working to put some layers and Jersey cows down the rows in the next size up we are building. I think it will be the missing piece to boost up nitrogen to make production come on faster. We will see! Excited about the possibilities to stack enterprises on it.
