Regenerative Land Use
Cattle That Heal the Land.
Grazing That Restores the Wild.
At Suyian, cattle and conservation work together. Our regenerative ranching model uses holistic, rotational grazing to rebuild soil, restore biodiversity, and sustain wildlife — while generating income that directly funds conservation.
The Challenge
Landscape Strained by Overuse
Overgrazing has degraded much of Kenya’s rangelands, threatening both livelihoods and ecosystems.
Conventional livestock systems extract from the land without giving back.
Suyian is proving that cattle, when managed regeneratively, can help restore the wild.
what we’re doing
Restoring Grasslands Through Regenerative Grazing
- 3,000 Boran cattle raised under rotational grazing.
- 90% of land cattle-free at any given time for natural regeneration.
- Predator-proof bomas protect livestock and reduce conflict.
- Grazing cycles that mimic wildlife migration patterns
how we do it
Using Cattle to Heal the Land
- Grassland Recovery: Cattle disperse seeds, cycle nutrients, and prevent bushfires.
- Carbon Storage: Healthy soils capture and store atmospheric CO₂.
- Income for Conservation: Beef sales fund rangers and land restoration.
- AgWild Partnership: Member of Kenya’s regenerative livestock alliance, promoting traceability and shared standards
Why it matters
Regenerative land use restores balance.
Healing soil, feeding wildlife, and supporting communities, with every hoofprint helping restore the ecosystems that future generations will inherit.
