Project Overview
Amazing Grazing II provided educational and networking opportunities to assess and manage production, market, legal, financial and human risk. Target participants included small ruminant livestock producers, ranchers considering managed grazing, those exploring the possibility of diversify production, and producers seeking value added or direct marketing their meat, fiber and dairy products. More than 675 Kansas producers participated in programming, including two conferences, two 2-day intensive events, seven full-day workshops and several hands-on learning opportunities.
Amazing Grazing II enabled 321 producers to improve their understanding of grazing management, water development, fencing, low-stress handling, and biological control of invasive species. An additional 220 producers evaluated their operations in the areas of personal/business liability, labor regulations, emergency management planning and value-added/direct marketing opportunities. More than 50 participants implemented a strategy relating to water development, low-stress handling, managed grazing, or biological control of invasive species and 32 implemented a strategy relating to personal/business liability.
