#1 it hasn’t been destroyed by any means. There was damage in the past with old practices, but the things that lead to that erosion and such aren’t issues in the modern industry. #2 where on earth are you pulling the timeframe of 40 years from? That seems completely random. The land has been farmed for 160+ years, what happened over 40?

I agree that this is a completely flawed sample, that said I disagreed with some of your other points. As far as fertility, you are pretty much limited to manure and chemical fert. There’s really nothing else available in enough mass to feed our soil. As for environmental stuff I’m not sure what specific details you’re talking about. If it’s deforestation that’s only really an issue in developing countries, areas that have been developed longer are not actively clearing land. Methane is an issue, but there are ways to mitigate it and it should also be noted that it’s a relatively insignificant portion of total emissions. You’re going to be infinitely more impactful focussing on renewable energy and such.

Anyone that says that is way behind the times. It's not the livestock that is the problem, rather the method of Management

It's not the cow, it's the how 😊.

The higher organic matter in the healthier soil allows more moisture retention

Your distrust and ignorance tells us everything we need to know about you.

⁠​⁠@@Ajaxxgopwit’s called evidence. Blind trust in somebody is a terrible idea. There is no reason for us to inherently trust this man we’ve never met.

@@Ajaxxgopwso do you expect us to just blindly believe him without evidence?

Unfortunately the majority of the regenerative farming movement is more focused on using the fears of a public that’s very ignorant to agriculture to push their ideas than actual science and evidence.

@ spoken like a true Big Ag zealot. There is nothing "unfortunate" about the regenerative farming movement. Now go back to work at Monsanto and with your science create more toxic chemicals that we "have to have" in the name of progress.

If you can't figure that out maybe you should go to accounting school.

@@TheWhale45 Well, if he is talking about letting his cattle graze on the straw after the grain is cut then maybe he should ask his neighbor if he can let his cattle roam over on his property as well. I dont see a lot of value in grazing straw.

​@@outsideview9052filler , they still get fed in bunks.

​@@outsideview9052straw comes from oats or wheat. Farmers don't plant just oats or wheat, those are typically a cover crop for alfalfa or other perrenial crops. The livestock would be grazing not on straw but the green crop sprouting behind the straw plants. But, I bet you knew that already.

@@stevearttus8164 This video is clearly comparing two separate grain fields. That is why the man said the other farmer has done "no till" farming on that field for years. The example you are using (planting a cover crop) is only done once when the alphalpha is first planted. My original question still stands. How do they provide any meaningful intergration of cattle onto a field of grain after the crop is harvested and all that is left is straw? The video is incomplete.

Clearly you're not aware of who Gabe Brown is and what he achieves

So you think that God the creator of all life made a system basically void of life that is only productive a fraction of the year? I would urge you to dig deeper in thought and research the effects that continuous over grazing has on the landscape. From a fellow rancher, good day.

@@406regengarage I don’t think, I know. The earth is not in a harmonious balance everywhere all the time. Not all soil is created equal. That is an indisputable fact. You can’t turn a Yugo in to a Ferrari.

@@406regengarage And that still works in something like say bog lands?! There are many lands that are unusable for grazing or farming.

Regenerative agriculture etcetera has transformed many an average field into high quality living soil. Poor soil is easily remediated

Also, you could take two steps in any direction and get opposite results in each field

Grow something then you'll be able to see it. See How dark his soil is. See How good it smells.

@@TheWhale45 are you implying that I don't grow anything? From the video no I can't tell much difference in color, especially since he took bare soil its always gonna be lighter, a closer examination maybe. I can tell his also is "Platey" as it broke apart right where the majority of the roots stopped only a couple inches down, very common in notill

It's common bloody biology, poop is natures fertilizer.

That would not go with the narrative 😂

His neighbor chooses, chooses to have bare ground. Gabe Brown chooses not to have bare ground on any part of his land. He isn't going to dig up his neighbor's crop. That would be inconsiderate. Spend about half an hour drilling down on holistic Regenative farming. Carbon Cowboys. Savory Institute. Joel Salatin. Greg Judy.

​@@jimbaker7133You clearly have no clue. Research Gabe Brown.

​@@jimbaker7133Which narrative? The one that's grown food for thousands of years, or the one we started using in the last 100?

@@Freeland-Farmthe narrative that feeds 9 billion people. We get 5x the yield that farmers received in the 1800’s and early 1900’s. Without drought resistant genetically modified crops, no till farming, irrigation and chemicals we would have 1/5th of the crops we have today. Even if you drop that number to 1/2 the yield world wide we would have world wide starvation. I can promise as a farmer if I don’t apply these scientific measures to growing crops on my farm I would go bankrupt. I don’t do things that are not giving us results. We carefully evaluate and determine what works and what produces the most for the dollars and effort we put in. The only people doing organic farming are small scale farms that can afford to give it a try because they have extra land, inherited land, or mostly paid off land. No bank is going to give you a loan to go try old school farming practices unless you have some sort of niche market or proven track record for that product backing you up. I can promise there is a reason we don’t all farm like 1800’s farm families anymore. Maybe you do and I wish you good luck.

We’d love to make that happen! Be the domino that starts the chain reaction-request a screening, and let’s bring it to your area! worldwithoutcows.com/screenings/

kiss the ground, common ground, white oak pastures - there a good start.

You just need common sense, the more lost common today....
