We are excited to have you enrolled in the CRCL Regenerative Grazing program this season! One goal of this program is to provide you with tools to make more informed regenerative grazing management decisions. As you know, participants in this program will plan their grazing and monitor soil health in enrolled pastures.
Please find the attached Grazing Chart, which program participants will use to plan their grazing. Both an Excel version and a PDF version (which can be easily printed and assembled into a full chart) are attached. Also attached is a Quick Start Guide, which will walk you through the basics of the grazing planning process. Take your time thinking through the steps and how they apply to your own operation.
Please submit completed plans by May 1 through your CRCL Project Application Account (app.farmraise.com/mo-crcl) where you will be able to upload a document or photos of your paper grazing chart. Continue to use this chart as you adapt your grazing plan throughout the season, recording your planned vs actual grazing moves and forage productivity on the same lines directly below your planned grazing moves. You will then submit a final document or photo at the end of the season.
More information will be coming soon on soil health monitoring and how to collect and submit samples for cost-shared testing. Thank you again for your participation in the program!
