Small-Scale Livestock Farming: A Grass-Based Approach for Health, Sustainability, and Profit

I’m glad I bought it.

This book arrived promptly and in excellent condition. I'm using it for personal research purposes, and I expect that it will be very helpful to me.

I absolutely LOVE this book! It would be excellent for anyone thinking of farming or any farmer thinking of changing things up a bit. It offers a ton of very practical information. I have used some of the equations in the back to formulate our own feed for our poultry that costs us half what we were paying the mill and uses ingredients we are happier with. It gives ways for you to do at home forage testing so you can get your farm in great shape! Healthy grasses/soils make for healthy animals and more profits for you! It also has some info about fencing and structures and different ways to configure paddocks of intensive grazing. Really a great resource. I can't count how many times I have referred to this book.

A pretty good read, however it throws a lot of non-livestock information in. I would have liked to see more information on stockers. When is the best time to buy? How long should you keep them? Switch to finish food ect. It has some good budget info, but it missed the mark I was looking for. Still it's well written with a lot of information.

BY FAR our absolute favorite book on livestock farming. Literally includes everything you need to know!! If you are planning to raise livestock buy this book!! It is a must have!

Good read for anyone interested in raising a handful of animals. Not for the major rancher. It is very descriptive with a good foundation to learn. As the cover says it goes into great detail as A Grass based approach for Health, Sustainability, and profit. This will not give you all the answers but may make up your mind to jumpo into this or not.

Easy read with good information. This book is doing a lot to help me with a farm plan.

There only one word I have for this purchase,SUPER!!!!Definitely Happy with this book. A wealth of great information/trianing/study
