Book excerpt: Pasture has been a wasted resource. "Planned, controlled grazing management defined by Andre Voisin has proved to be a low-cost, highly productive way to make pastures a valuable asset. The method relies on livestock to manage weeds & soil fertility, minimizes need to buy feed, manure-storage facilities & haying equipment, & reduces soil erosion. Everyone raising livestock should carefully consider this important book that blends fundamentals of pasture science with practical information in an interesting & easy-to-read style." Ken McNamara, The New Farm. "More than just a technical how-to guide, GREENER PASTURES is a philosophical look at the way we farm. Murphy gently invites us to climb out of our tractor seats, walk with the cows, & really look at our pastures -- to the benefit of our animals, our land, & ourselves. This is not flaky back-to-nature stuff, but a common sense system which improves the quality & quantity of forage produced while enhancing the quality of life for both animals & farmers. All livestock producers owe it to themselves & their farms to read this book." John & Lorraine Merrill, New England Farmer.
