According to newly published research, fertilizer industry methane emissions are one hundred times higher than previously reported. Cattle on pasture release less methane and need less fertilizer!
The Kerr Center offers both beginning and experienced ranchers information (how-to videos, slideshows, reports, training) on Oklahoma sustainable livestock production, including beef cattle, meat goats, and poultry.
The Kerr Ranch has been a working ranch since Sen. Robert S. Kerr established it in the 1950s, raising Angus stock.
The ranch has changed with the times, using the most up-to-date sustainable management approaches to improve profitability, maintain the fertility of the soil, and produce healthy animals.
