Installing stream crossings in pastures with intermittent streams
Source: One Good Idea
Kentucky producers Cody and Angela Rakes rotationally graze cattle, sheep, and goats. A couple of their pastures get intermittent streams during periods of heavy rain, which presents challenges for moving their animals and equipment. To solve those challenges and prevent erosion and runoff, they built two stream crossings and installed fencing to protect these areas. Learn what they did and how it’s going in this video.
