Swath grazing interesting concept, but does it pay?

Description

Reports the results of research and analysis by the AgriProfit$ Business Analysis and Research team on the value of swath grazing. The premise of swath grazing is to substitute a lower cost grazing system for higher cost drylot feeding the cow herd. Analysis of study results found that Swath grazing has potential as a cost-saving feeding strategy. Knowledge of production costs and risks, put into a budget analysis, will help determine if it's the right strategy for a particular farm.
