What they cover
Greg Judy is a Missouri rancher practicing mob grazing and regenerative cattle management. His YouTube channel covers high-density rotational grazing, pasture renovation without tillage, multi-species grazing, and the economics of grass-finished beef. He manages over 1,600 acres across multiple properties, all rented, demonstrating that regenerative ranching does not require land ownership.
Why they matter
Judy demolishes two myths simultaneously: that regenerative ranching requires owning land, and that it requires expensive infrastructure. He rents all his land and uses single-wire electric fence that he moves daily. His soil health improvements are measured and documented. His operation is profitable without subsidies. For the millions of ranchers on leased land who are told regenerative practices 'only work if you own the farm,' Judy is living proof otherwise.
