- @carboncowboys "Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)” is a 4-part documentary series all about inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to solving climate change with hooves, heart and soil.
Can a novel way to graze cattle, that mimics the way bison once roamed the land, help get farmers out of debt, restore our depleted soils, rebuild wildlife habitat and draw down huge amounts of carbon? Cattle have been seen as eco-villains for a long time. What if they can help save us from catastrophic climate change?
“Roots So Deep” is guided by director and wrangler of scientists Peter Byck as he meets farmers on both sides of the fence - the folks practicing a new way to graze, and their neighbors set in their family’s old style of doing things. Byck’s team of outcast scientists are measuring what’s happening on both sides of the fences - exploring if this new, adaptive grazing could help slow down climate change.
And one question looms over the whole series: even if the science shows that the new way to graze is better for the land and the farmers’ pocket books, will the old school farmers change, will they adopt the new methods? Will they evolve into climate heroes? Will they save our friggin’ asses from the impending climate catastrophe?
"Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)" is touring the country on our Hometown Roadshow - be sure to sign up for our newsletter to learn of screening near you! Can't wait to jump in? While we prepare for our official digital release next year, catch up on the original Carbon Cowboys films available FREE here on UA-cam! ua-cam.com/play/PL9sL-T7FNhj1Qpo2ewfDV8rnex7dbKegU.html&si=ADDPv8riTnrKDWFE
When will you release it online? I’m very interested on watching it :) I’m from Spain. I wish I could see it live but it’s a bit far for me 😅
You guys gonna write a book?
And where can I watch this online?
I'm excited to watch more!
Where can we view the documentary?
I am not even a farmer and love that I found this channel. I want it to grow . I hope everyone shares with a farmer they know .
Have done and will continue. ❤
Me too. I was raised on a ranch but nobody in my farms any more. I love this channel.
You mean the ancient four field rotation system that's been used for eons is actually better and more productive than buying all that shit from Monsanto et al? Who knew?...
Never had any of Monsanto rubbish when l was a kid, didn't have all this crap in the sky, either. What does that tell ya ?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My daddy knew. And his daddy before him.
No, it’s different to a four field rotation set stocking with the cattle going where they want in each whole field for 1 week to 1 moth duration.
In this method, the field may be divided into four or even eight paddocks (depending on size) with the cattle only staying in each paddock for a day or two and then being moved to the next paddock. The grass is far longer than with set stock grazing and about 1/3 of the grass is left long (not grazed short) when the cattle are moved onto the next paddock. The cattle won’t return to the same paddock until all the grass has grown or ‘recovered’ which, depending on soil health, daylight, warmth and rain might be a moth, 6 months or even a year.
One key factor, if it’s done right, is that the cattle don’t need supplementary feeding to finish for slaughter.
Rotational grazing is NOT what's being spoken about here. Learn more.
I wished I owned a farm , this makes so much sense I love it.
In ireland this type of farming was taught at primary school in the 60s. We all learned the system. Boys and girls we were all members of an agricultural community.
We have good friends from Ireland - and would love to visit with our series.
Doing paddock grazing in ireland here with sheep mostly. Have been doing it for the last 30 years! Easy management as large mobs of your sheep are in a small area compared to spread over 100s of acres.
Cool now feed the world with it. Oh oops
Do you know of any books referring to this type of adaptive grazing in Ireland?
@@rinabinettethe great irish farm book is a good one.
Fantastic that more of these are getting out. Having just spent a week with the great Allan Savory, I do feel that you should give him credit for bringing Hollistic Management to the world more than 60 years ago and still going strong despite having been cancelled by governments, academics and industry 100s of times including putting his life at risk at times.... good luck with the movement.
Thats all thanks to the petro chemical fertilizer industry who sees any kind of alternative farming methods as a threat and lables them as crack-pot or unscalable or unsustainable.
This film inspired myself and my wife to join the movement. So inspiring.
Alan Savary was the first to experiment with over-grazing small paddocks. It's a big part of his Holistic Resource Management program. He was the first to say "it's all about the soil." His TED talk is amazing.
He MIGHT be the first one recently…but this is no new concept. It is as old as agriculture I’d bet. We’re the generations done screwed it up…
Seems more like a BS way to justify the exploitation of animals and rebrand it as environmentally sound, when in reality, the far better thing for the environment would be to stop the farming of animals altogether.
This has been demonstrated in multiple studies
This has been used by different cultures on and off for thousands of years by different cultures with different animals
Man yous doing a grate job, my God almighty bless you and all your family for generations to come.
Go for it!! Im not a farmer, but we know the world need it so !!!🌏
Fkn' outstanding! Good luck with this project, it could save us all!
Can't wait to see it!!
I'm glad to see these ideas getting out there, but why isn't Allan Savory (who came up with them) mentioned -- both here and in the recent CNN article about this?
So what if Savory doesn't get a mention?? It's best if he doesn't tbh. He might have been an observant thinker and innovator but he's a hopeless politician. He even tells everyone that. No. Let's not mention him. He's had his run. Gurus that hang around too long once the idea is seeded can be a liability. He already pedals soft climate denial with semantics like "fossil fuels aren't the problem, it's how we manage them" Cha Ching!! $$$ thank you ExxonMobil. That shit is like a plague in regenerative ag. The wise elder gentleman is one side of Savory, the other side is pompous entitled & parochial. He just a human not a god.
He did not come up with them.
@@annbritton1714give the man credit for "systematizing" the science of controlled grazing...
@@graemeozzie2251go outside on a sunny day.....crane your head back and look at that huge sun in the sky. The fluctuations in various forms of radiation and cosmic rays probably is as big or bigger influence on the NORMAL shifts on Earth's weather & climate patterns as anything mere humans can do.
BTW....do you have some proof that Exxon has financial ties to Savory? If not, you need to stop..... libeling him is a criminal offense, you know
What about Joel Salatin? He is also credited for this type of grazing, but with more animals moving through each paddock, just like in nature.
Where can you watch the Film?
Learned this way of grazing in public school systems in South Africa in the early 80's. Turns out that they were right about at least one thing.
I appreciate what you're doing to reveal the better practices incumbent in a more naturalistic style of farming, but the climate changes because it changes. We're not in an ice-age anymore, this is what happens when you're not in an ice-age. We orbit a 3 million mile wide nuclear furnace that is constantly trying to heat up whatever is around it. A net-warming effect is the consequence of us orbiting a main-sequence star. And, given that you're studying agriculture and supporting natural feeding principles, you should *_want_* more atmospheric CO2 since it is one of the primary parts driving the life-cycle on this planet.
Growing soil is the answer.
Let’s get real…everyone wants to help nature thrive…circle of life…we can’t live without Mother Earth: Mother Earth can live without us….our arrogance will put us into the ground.
So how do I watch it? Can’t find it anywhere
Where can this be watched
pls go to rootssodeep.org and hit "request a screening"
I don’t know why, if in fact this documentary is meant to “save our asses”, why don’t they make it available for free so the word can more easily spread! It’s always about the MONEY! I’d watch this series, but NEVER pay to watch it! Joel Saliton, has been doing this for YEARS!
All cattle people rotate fields and it’s not 2 months. Your painting this picture as of farmers are idiots. More of the younger farmers have been using more technology to help with crops
I got 80 acres in Southern Colora. What Do you recommend I do with it? I have water and everything just need to clear all the sage brush
Our research focuses on the American Southeast, but check out our video Herd Impact for a story about ranchers in North Texas - or reach out to awesome educators like the folks at Understanding Ag!
Check out Quivira Coalition in Santa Fe. Good place to start.
Here's opening paragraph from their website:
"The Quivira Coalition builds soil, biodiversity, and resilience on western working landscapes. We foster ecological, economic, and social health through education, innovation, and collaboration...."
Also, check out Allan Savory Holistic management book and website.
He's originally from Rhodesia and worked to restore national parks and the native grazing areas threatened with desertification
Diversity growing. Leaving a portion of your land alone.
WHERE CAN WE WATCH THIS DOCUMENTARY???
Coming soon TO WHERE
Egen is This coming out? Cant find it
When can I watch the movie?
I want to learn!
Where i can find the documentary?
Not sure where this one is, but a similar one on Netflix called “Kiss The Ground” deals with this issue as well.
You should speak at warren wilson college!
Where to view it??
We're touring the country with our HomeTown RoadShow right now! You can request a screening in your town at the carbon cowboys website!
0:59 “I dont want to farm at the expense of nature, that’s not what’s about. I mean that doesnt even make sense!”
Tell that to the concentrated animal feeding operation industry 😬
You would think being a land owner. You would know this, it is common knowledge? Why the uk woulnt eat us made food. Poisonous.
what isn't stated overtly, or ever, is that everyone needs to eat much less beef for this to work. there isn't enough grassland area on the planet to graze even a tenth of the quantities we currently consume from factory farms.
Big corporations took over the market only raising for short periods shipping them around it's not good. I only eat beef once every wk or 2 it's just not that important when I was younger It was one of the only things I ate now I would much rather go pick a handful of green beans and saute them up better yet broccoli saute in evoo take couple ears of corn or honey crip apples and honey peanut butter.. I don't know I just think we need to change our practices and thinking we're some pretty entitled people
This isn't focused on feeding the world with animal protein but rather how to use managed grazing as a tool to protect/ enhance/ recover grasslands. However; a side effect is increased protein production per acre.
Better grazing practices produces more beef, dairy, etc
That's not true at all. Rotational grazing can produce tons of beef, sheep, pigs, chickens, and goats. If more small farms did it this way more people could afford these meats. The animals are not the problem. The humans have made the problem. The big corps have created a monster in big ag. If we ha e less chemicals in our food the healthier everyone and our planet are.
Why aren't we comparing this to the far more efficient and environmentally beneficial process of getting rid of animal exploitation altogether?
We could feed people on far less land if we didn't need to maintain these huge masses of animals and constantly replace then with more.
You even elude to this possibility in the video when you bring up bison.
We could have NATIVE ecosystems sequestering the carbon and elude have to exploit the animals on the forest place.
The only difference would be farming vegetables instead.
And we don't have to hate on the ranchers for this.
We could instead help them to transition to a far better way.
Because this is realistic and animals are part of the solution.
@brianrodman1033 part of the solution HOW?
I'm personally not interested in "solutions" that require the abuse of animals when there's ones that don't require that abuse at all.
And the only reason that my solution seems unrealistic is that people care more about taste and have a resistance to change.
But I changed, even after spending a decade of my life running a BBQ.
So really, the only thing unrealistic is thinking it isn't possible.
8 years ago, people thought an orange TV personality becoming president was unrealistic and look where that led
Farming? Of all of the other things that cause climate change you want to blame the farmers?
Muh climate change. 😒
The internet is crazy. It’s making people way smarter and way stupider at the same time. Hopefully the smartening will pull ahead.
Excellent comment.
The Ensmartening Must Occur!
When seeking the truth, one becomes intelligent GOD willing
Growing soil is the answer.
That's OK if you want to live on cornflakes. Just look at the colour of corn fed chickens, do you want to look like that.
@@patmckenna7780 You have no clue. I've been running cattle on small plots, moving them frequently for quite some time now, before I ever saw any of this, and the health of my soil is exceptional. No need for fertilizer or pesticides. Growing soil is the answer.
There’s a fantastic book called Teaming With Microbes that discusses this. In my research into this I have doubled my yields. Biodiversity is critical to sustainable agriculture.
Great book and for me an introduction to Elaine Ingham’s work. A great source of information and an enjoyable read that was quite eye opening and helped to give me a better idea about what was going on in my efforts with composting. Could probably stand to reread it again by now, it’s been about 10 years since I read the thing. A lot more of it would be likely to make sense/more sense today, on account of being more familiar with some of the ideas in the book. I also really need to get some of the other books that author duo (Lowenfels & Lewis) have published. Have you had a chance to read any of their other titles?
This is how we become ungovernable
Relax
What ? How? Please explain what you ment by your statement.
Omg I want to watch this 😍😍😍 I'm not even a farmer, but hearing about rotation grazing made me want to be one!😂
So when can we watch it?
@@AztecJimmy this page has TONS of small videos already but the FULL Release is in just 5 days
Where can I watch this! So interested
It would be cool if you could team up with Jeremy Clarkson and his show Clarkson’s Farm next season.
Why can’t they teach us this helpful knowledge in school. Everyone knows Geography was breezed iced over.
Fertilizer Companies only fund AGTECH programs that encourage using fertilizers.
This is not new, this is how Portugal does it. Only in North America have I seen cows only in one location. "Who knew" So many people!
#NaturalGramma
Americans discover a new way to farm that most of the rest of the world has done for centuries.
That’s a d-bag comment.
I watched this trailer a year ago and still haven’t seen the film…WHERE IS IT
Lmao. We ruined farming so badly we're "discovering" the old way of doing it again.
Coming soon like when, pal?
And the rich people get on their planes, flying around selling climate change.
Growing soil is the answer.
Turds don't go away
-Science
Sounds like the documentary "Kiss the Ground" Sounds like we have hope. I know im my area the is the Noble Foundation and they have started over and are going regenerative agriculture and they are a hundred million dollar company. Matter of fact i worked on the house of the standing CEO so i know all about this topic.
This is how Peter grew such an amazing head of hair! JK
Where can we watch the full movie?
Can’t wait to see you in the JRE
I'm in. Where do we learn more or how to do it?!
So how do we watch this then?

Yes we have climate change 4 times a year
So what's the findings of your work?
None of the outcomes are referenced in this trailer 🙁
The one thing alarmists never count on is human enginuity.
Where can I watch this??
