Now’s your chance to see it in action!

See how this technology is being used with cattle, learn more about rotational grazing, and hear about the potential benefits and practical considerations for Manitoba producers.

🌱 This project was supported through the Prairie Watersheds Climate Program (PWCP), helping Manitoba producers explore innovative approaches to pasture management and climate resilience.
