Join the Oklahoma State University Extension Service on May 11-12, 2026, for two days of hands-on, research-based training on sustainable and profitable grazing practices.

This two-day workshop is co-designed with input from university researchers, Extension specialists, NRCS, and local conservation district personnel, as well as experienced ranchers.

Key Topics will Include

• Grazing basics and grazer’s math
• Grazing system design (rotational-management intensive grazing)
• Forage selection, establishment, and pasture renovation
• Soil health and fertility
• Electric fencing and water delivery systems for managed grazing systems
• Forage quantity estimates and carrying capacity determination
• Matching livestock with forage resources
• Economics of grazing systems
• Integrating technology (e.g., grazing apps)

The format will blend classroom instruction, field demonstrations, and peer-to-peer learning. Participants will receive printed material, access to digital resources, and continued support through an online support community.
