[QUOTE="holwellcourtfarm, post: 7351374, member: 42914"] 4 paddocks is nowhere near enough for what you want to achieve. The most important bit is how long the grass gets to regrow before being grazed again. This varies with grass growth rate through the season but could be as much as 70 days. The next most important bit is not letting them regraze grass that's started to regrow after a first grazing. In fast growing periods this could be as little as 3 days. That leaves you needing LOTS of small paddocks, easiest done with electric fencing. If you want to understand the idea try reading any of these: Holistic Management by Allan Savory and Jody Butterfield. Grass Productivity: An introduction to rational grazing by Andre Voisin The art and science of grazing by Sarah Flack. [/QUOTE]
