South Central New York Dairy & Field CropsIsaac Troyer operates a 40-cow organic grazing dairy. He gained experience dairying with his father, and recently relocated his herd to a new farm in Candor, NY. This summer is his second grazing season at the new location.
Troy Bishop, the Grass Whisperer, will join us to discuss how he uses his grazing chart to proactively manage for expected and unexpected events during the grazing season and give a snapshot of how the grazing season is going. Expect some lingering grazing observations in the pasture, stockpiling strategies, and learning how the Troyer family is using pastures to achieve their goals.
