GRAZING PRACTICES AT OUR RANCHES

HOLISTIC AND REGENERATIVE PLANNED GRAZING TECHNIQUES

The Big Horn Bison Ranching System practices Holistic and Regenerative Planned Grazing Techniques throughout all of its ranches. All bison within our ranching system is certified and genetically tested to exclude any non-native DNA pertaining to the preservation of the diverse genetics of the Great American Bison. As Big Horn Bison builds their herds, they have subsequently implemented a holistic and regenerative grazing management program throughout their ranching systems. Planned grazing techniques will allow a herd of bison to graze their entire ranch year-round. It will also give plants within their ranch ample time to rest, grow, and flourish before they are subjected to grazing again. This technique additionally supplies sufficient drought reserves for the ranches. By enlisting this planned grazing technique into the Big Horn Bison Ranching System, we plan to see a higher forage production, enhanced forage quality, and healthier plants, ecosystems, and bison than other ranches choosing not to use this technique.
