Regenerative grazing management - ‘Catch the Rain’ webinar Mar'24

Join webinar host Sam Lang and three farmers - Mark Koopmans (North Canterbury), Rachel Short (Taranaki) and Ross Johnson (Wairarapa) - as they discuss regenerative grazing systems and techniques, plus some farmer-led research and insights.

This webinar presents the collective knowledge and insights of 13 farmers with experience in regenerative grazing management. It is designed to help farmers better understand the potential, principles, techniques and tips for developing successful regenerative grazing systems.

The research presented is also available in written for in the regenerative grazing section of the Quorum Sense ‘Toolbox’.

The farmer case studies mentioned in the webinar can be found in the ‘Journeys into regenerative livestock’ case study collection.

About ‘Catch the Rain’

Catch the Rain is a farmer-driven education, research and innovation project focused on improving rainfall infiltration and soil moisture retention on non-irrigated pastoral farms. Is it funded by Beef + Lamb New Zealand and led by Quorum Sense.

There are 40 farmers participating from Southland to the Manawatu that are developing, implementing and monitoring on-farm trials. Many of these trials are focused on testing different grazing techniques. For more about Catch the Rain visit www.quorumsense.org.nz/catch-the-rain-project.
