Our guest this week, Ryan Gravenhof, is a Minnesota farmer who shares how he is using cattle collars to transform grazing management and reduce labor on his operation.

Jared and Justin talk with him about everything from grazing cover crops in low traffic fields to managing escaped livestock with precision. Give the episode a listen!
