Grass-based livestock production is a sustainable system for raising animals to a marketable weight in many parts of the world, yet adoption of the practice is not common in the United States. A random sample mail survey and a series of experiments were conducted to discover: 1) what factors influenced conversion to and adoption of a grass-based system and use of a grazing system, 2) grazing systems that would allow acceptable growth and carcass characteristics in lambs, and 3) management strategies to utilize sheep in an organic cropping-based farm operation.
