I have a design question regarding the rotational paddock system. In the drawing of a city lot almost the whole space is used for the chickens. I am designing a 5 acre farm with alley cropping and want to do permanent raised mounds to grow veggies between the rows of trees. this presents an interesting design opportunity. The permanent raised beds cant be compacted because we will never till them and i imagine that chickens will compact the soil. I am drawing a blank on how to integrate these two features and i need ideas.
