Regenerative Farming a Farming Revolution in Australia - A documentary - Episode 1- Soil and Seed.

Published 2021-05-31
This is the first of three episodes describing the benefits of regenerative farming. This first episode focuses on soil health and the effects that increased carbon, fungi and microbes have on our food. Growing seeds in regenerative soil improves the quality of our food and ultimately our health.

    I am on your same path. Spraying and using synthetics foy decades until I asked myself: "How could I think that using poisons to grow our food is a good idea?!?" Now I am regenerating soil, I save money from fertilizers and pesticides and my yield is steadily increasing. Take care.
  • Brilliant, God Bless You, I have been doing this for years and been called every name in the book but now my grown children are in to it big time and I'm so proud to see them making a difference for the better, THANKYOU
  • Definitely need more tree cover on every farm highlighted in the video & in farms in general, worldwide; just as they found in Senegalese contribution to the Great Green Wall Project of the Sahel. It seems counterintuitive, but for both cropping & grazing land, trees really do help, particularly when planted on contour & if possible, using berms & swales. The Senegalese Project turned severely degraded land that was allowing the Sahara to continue advancing at an alarming rate into productive grazing & cropping land, & in turn, meant massive drop in food insecurity, malnutrition, poverty, drought issues & they were able to afford to send kids to school - many for the 1st time. The Sahara has since stopped advancing in this region & they've even been able to push it back a bit. In India, Middle East, Africa & wherever else tree cover has been made a priority, massive regeneration of the land has ensued. Plenty of YouTube videos documenting this work.

    An organic and Biodynamic farmer myself ..now can see magic in my small farm ..12 years on have converted a plot with pH 12 ..to awesome result using Indigenous cows as center of my farm

    Fantastic video and so great to see more Aussie farmers using these techniques and getting outstanding results. I did notice that some of the "planters" were still tilling the soil. This kills off the soil and releases the carbon into the atmosphere. They would see better results if they didn't till. Gabe Brown has some great videos on how he plants crops without tilling.

    The biggest lesson I've learnt in my time farming, is the slasher and a few cows or sheep rotated in short bursts are your best friend in improving your soil and biodiversity of plant life. A paddock over run by "weeds" are only dominant because the soil conditions favour that plant or species. When you slash the green "weeds", you fast track the soil biology with green matter that can be used as food. In a few shorts seasons, that same paddock can go from being over run with a certain plant species, usually broadleaf and turned into a grass dominant paddock with multiple volunteer species.

    Love this video! Just starting this journey myself on my hobby farm

    Watching from Ghana 🇬🇭 I really enjoyed it

    The vermi extract has been shown as an incredible success for Di and Ian Haggerty

    When farmers regularly commit suicide, all alarm bells should ring. Regenerative agriculture is one of the key remedies to global warming.

    It's funny that it took people with a PHD and years of study to find out it comes back to composting.😂 We already knew this a long time ago. You can't strip the land of everything and then wonder why it fails. It's common sense and you don't need a PhD to figure that out.
  • I have 2 questions. What is the preffered irrigating method in this practice? How plants protect themselves against aphid attacks?

    does farming produce more c emission to atmosfer in time unity? o people be honest to me pls
