Proper Grazing for Healthy Pastures and Waterfowl Support

Proper grazing uses control to protect forage plants and soil. It preserves soil cover, reduces runoff, enhances water absorption, and sustains pasture productivity. Overgrazing weakens grasses, lowers carrying capacity, and increases drought and disease risk. Waterfowl benefit from well managed private lands and farm ponds, with SCS help from local districts to create waterfowl areas and hunting access.
