A series of 5 videotapes entitled "MANAGED GRAZING" has been

and the USDA-SARE program by Jim Russell and Dan Morrical from Iowa State
University's Department of Animal Science, Steve Barnhart from ISU's
Department of Agronomy and Ann Cowen, an Extension Associate in the
ISU-CHIPS program and the Lucas County Lakes Water Quality Project with the
assistance of other ISU faculty and staff, NRCS personnel and cooperating

This series covers technical information needed to improve the
profitability of grazing animal production systems. Subjects covered
include advantages and limitations of intensively managed grazing, forage
plant growth management, grazing animal management, paddock layout, fencing
