Herb-rich grasslands through intensive grazing

Intensive strip grazing maintains herb-rich grasslands with minimal intervention

or

Detail description

Herb-rich grasslands sustain Boer Bart's farm in Rotstergaast through intensive strip grazing. Cows rotate every 12 hours, allowing four-week rest periods that promote natural balance between grasses and herbs. This method maintains biodiversity without overseeding, supporting long-term ecological resilience. Cows graze year-round, with only winter housing.
