Raising great quality 100% grass fed beef for Thousand Hills Cattle company requires knowledge in 3 areas:
- Selection of optimum cattle genetics for grass fed beef.
- Good pasture and grazing management, including fencing, watering systems, and flexible, rotational grazing systems.
- Improving the quality and quantity of forages grown on your farm or ranch.
After studying these topics for years, I can say that Doug Gunnink of Gaylord, MN is the national leader on forage quality for grass fed beef production. His advice forms the basis for the Thousand Hills Cattle Company 100% grass fed beef production model. I highly recommend the investment of time and money to attend his conferences. We hope to see you there!
