Theory
 * Foundations of regenerative livestock farming and rational grazing: how to use herbivores to regenerate the landscape and improve profitability.
 * Management and design of efficient, economical, and functional electric fences. Fixed and mobile, advantages and disadvantages. Management keys.
 * The role and management of horses in intensive grazing schemes
 * Use of associated pastures and their contribution to building fertility. Megathermal pastures in temperate climates
 * Practical bases for managing the different categories in rational grazing: breeding, rearing and fattening.
 * Rational sheep grazing management: key factors at each stage of the cycle, infrastructure and marketing.
 * Pasture-fed egg production.
 * Conclusions, challenges and opportunities from 15 years of experience at the 'El Mate' establishment.
 * Production of slaughter chickens on pasture
 * Design of intensive grazing systems integrated with rotations and regenerative agriculture: experiences in South America
 Practices
 * Rumen supplementation: simple strategies to digest coarse forages in dry seasons.
 * Management of horses in intensive grazing.
 * Differentiation by homogeneous environments in livestock management.
 * Diagnosis of structural functionality of the soil.
 * Pastures as carbon sinks.
 * Relevant indicators to observe in the field.
 * Pasture changes, mobile fences, cutting reels and work methodology.
 * Installation of the Electrifier.
 * Animal behavior in frequent changes.
 * Comparison and analysis of pastures with well-managed fallows vs. continuous grazing.
 * Field visit: management experiences with poultry and sheep.
 * Spaces for dialogue: challenges and opportunities with producers.
 * Practice infiltration capacity and use of penetrometer (if possible).
 * Use of the refractometer to evaluate the condition of the pasture and soil.
 * Use of deferred pastures in dry seasons.
