A 3-day grazing school is planned in Lincoln on August 22nd, 23rd, and 24th. Information and ideas are provided to landowners and operators who are interested in promoting a grazing system set-up for the livestock operation on their farm. It is a requirement for any landowner interested in receiving cost share for a DSP-3 Planned Grazing System, through the State Cost Share Program, to attend a grazing school.
The school will begin at 8:30 a.m. and end by 4:30 p.m. each day. There will be indoor classroom sessions along with some outdoor tours and training. Appropriate dress for both will be necessary. Lunch will be provided.
The only item the participants will need to bring is an aerial photo of the property they will be completing the system on. Sample grazing systems will be worked up during the school. These photos can be received from the USDA Service Center.
Registration is required in advance and will hold a spot for you at the school as space is limited and will be on a first come first serve basis. If you are interested, please contact our office (Benton Co. SWCD) for more information. The deadline for registering will be August 11th.
