You kinda lost me on that one Outdoors.....that's not a field in the pics.....it's just an example of what the understory looks like across my property.

Of course cows can be used to improve the soil.....We are doing nothing more than recycling vegetation back to the soil. The cows are simply the tool being used. Goats would also be a good idea to throw into the mix.....Again they are not eating up your deer food.... They are resetting succession. You don't hear anyone talking about fire eating up all of their deer food do you?.....The concept is no different
