The Art of Grazing
Grazing is a term used to describe a method of land cultivation whereby one clears an area of debris for common use. The method by which one clears the debris is performed by removal of that which lays on the uppermost of the debris layer and working downward a piece at a time. This method ensures that vital insect life and ground stabilising support systems, such as rocks and logs, remain undisturbed. Not only does following this protocol allow insects to do their important work of breaking down and fertilizing soil, it also ensures that land features which hold the soil can remain so as to avoid creating landslides and erosion.
