who are the carbon cowboys?
Carbon cowboys are the men and women who are inventing a new way to graze cattle that mimics how herds of bison grazed The Great Plains of North America, and built some of the world’s deepest and richest soils. Replicating this system with their cattle these cowboys have coined their grazing method, "adaptive multi-paddock" (amp) grazing.
what is amp?
adaptive multi-paddock grazing
1. section the land
Imagine the land being divided into smaller sections with poly wire fencing. ('paddocks')
2. move the animals often
Animals graze in one section at a time for just a short while, leaving plenty of plants behind.
3. recharge the land in cycles
After they've moved on, that section gets time to rest and grow back before the animals return.
