Grazing North Texas – What’s In A Name?
By Tony Dean
Names are an important part of everyday life. When you meet someone for the first time, you extend your hand and introduce yourself. Your new friend shakes your hand and tells you his name.
You may have names for different pastures, horses, cattle, dogs, cats and politicians. We seem to feel we don’t really know something or someone until we know a name. But what do you know about the other half of your grazing operation, the forages that support your grazing animals?
As we begin this exciting new year, let’s make a resolution to learn more about the grasses and other forages that our livestock consume every day.
They are just as important as your livestock. You wouldn’t be in business without them. A rancher who knows some basic information about his grazing plants can be a much more effective manager.

Delicate microbes buried just beneath the surface. We walk by them, unbeknownst to us. Spores, spawn, and sclerotia, each with distinct characteristics. It is said that these fungi are all connected, speaking to one another as they populate the earth. The interconnectedness of all living things and the decaying world, such beauty lies within these otherworldly alien organisms.

On Aug. 22, 2024 at 11:40 p.m., the Remington fire jumped the line in Wyoming to burn towards Montana at a high rate of speed. The fire burned 194,459 acres and over 41 miles from one end to the other in a span of two days. Livestock producers will be feeling the effects for years to come.
