This webinar investigates how organic pasture systems have the potential to
do much more than just feed livestock. If managed properly, pastures and
rangeland can include many forbs (herbaceous flowering plant) – from forage
legumes to wildflowers – that provide nutrients for livestock, pollen and
nectar for honey bees, native bees and other pollinators, and even milkweed
host plants for monarch butterflies. In this video, you will learn about
how to manage the timing and intensity of grazing to both improve forage
conditions on pasture and provide benefits to pollinators. We also discuss
options for inter-seeding cover crops and other techniques for increasing
the floral diversity of pasture systems.



Speaker: Anne Stine, The Xerces Society



Moderator: Ben Bowell, Oregon Tilth
