| Howard and Mary Jo Straub have been in the dairy business for 33 years in St. Johns, Michigan. In 1993 they started rotationally grazing the dairy herd and the following year heifers and calves were also put on pasture. Howard saw the profit potential with grazing and became an advocate of rotational grazing and seasonal dairying. He has been involved with many organizations including the Michigan Forage Council, Michigan Food and Farming Systems and the American Forage and Grasslands Council. He also helped organize and is serving as president of the Michigan Grazing Lands Conservation Initiative. Howard and Mary Jo have four children of which three have their own grazing dairy herds in Michigan and Ohio. |
