Stewardship on the North Thompson: Joseph Moilliet of Aveley Ranch

This podcast was funded in part by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada through the BC Climate Agri-Solutions Fund delivered by the Investment Agriculture Foundation of BC.

This episode: the final chapter in our miniseries on rotational grazing in collaboration with Organic BC.

This one features a long-form conversation with rancher Joseph Moilliet of Avely Ranch, a sheep and cattle operation in Vavenby, British Columbia. Management-intensive rotational grazing is a major pillar in Joseph’s approach to sustainable livestock management.

Rotational grazing is the main focus of this conversation, but you’ll also hear Joseph talk about other practices he uses to improve the health and productivity of his soil, such as winter bale grazing and an avoid-tillage-at-all-costs approach to pasture rejuvenation.
