Thursday, March 11, 2021, 6:30 pm until 7:30 pm
webinar
In this class, Amy Barkley will explore the facets of developing a grazing plan including considerations surrounding field conditions, pasture species, livestock species, grazing intensity, watering systems, and fencing considerations. These virtual classes will provide opportunities to learn and to ask questions. While the courses are designed for the general grazier, the focus will be for those grazing beef, sheep, and goats. A pre-course survey will be sent upon registration to provide participants with the opportunity to give input on which topics would be most valuable to discuss. Webinar links and call-in numbers to the virtual classroom will be shared the day prior to the presentation by the email you registered with. Printed copies of the notes and CD recordings of the lectures will be made available upon request. If you would prefer to register by phone, please contact Kelly Bourne at 585-268-7644 ext 10 or klb288@cornell.edu. Registration is required and will close the day prior to each class.
