Rotational Grazing Management System for Hogs

Aubyn of Spray Creek Ranch demonstrates her rotational grazing system for hogs including choosing a paddock location and portable fencing, housing and feeding infrastructure. Electric netting provides both a physical barrier and a psychological barrier. It is often a better option for young hogs but most older hogs will be respectful of one or two strands of wire. One of the biggest issues with electric netting is it grounding out due to vegetative load at the bottom. Grazing or mowing before installing netting and/or deactivating the bottom of the net can help to mitigate this issue.
