    This is the basis of all pasture and farming systems and I am amazed that more people are not talking about it on a daily basis. We need our politicians to take it on-board.

      Politicians aren't allowed to talk about ACTUAL SOLUTIONS to the Climate Fraud. The Legacy Press is SOLIDLY BEHIND...NOT ever talking about Soil Regeneration.
      Environmentalists NEVER TALK ABOUT IT... because "Environmentalism" is about Power and Not about the Environment.

    This is very informative. It also raises many questions about the unhealthy farming practices that still seem dominant in large-scale industrial agriculture and in smaller operations as well.

      Is raising cattle better for the land than growing soy beans?

      @@helenbarrett6451 There are different factors involved in each, but the large-scale cattle operations that keep animals in a feedlot most of the time are definitely more harmful in several ways than growing most vegetables using regenerative ag There are some smaller scale cattle operations that circulate the animals continuously on a range, which can have some benefits for the land if handled properly. But a large amount of land and water is still required, and in most cases the cattle are still "finished" in a feedlot

      @@timj9418 water always needed, the land used isn't used for anything g else and the animals pooping and grazing improves the land. Finishing pen don't use pesticeds or kill a bunch of native small animals to stop them eating the soy beans.

    Real curious if proven, best to cut non root crops off. Does that cut off root system continue to feed the soil.?

      Not a pro, but what I've been hearing is that by leaving it you cause far less soil disruption. Every time you disrupt the soil, all the organisms of all sizes and types have to redo all the work they did forming the "neural network" in the soil. ((Sounds silly, but thing about in the movie Avatar, how they showed all the trees were connected and the people were connected to them, as well... yeah, exactly THAT!)) AND, that by leaving it, it breaks down in the soil, feeding the same network (or community) and nourishing the soil, in this manner. If I remember correctly, this is a function of photosynthesis, as well.

    Nuclear powered desalination with pipe networks everywhere. PS going to other planets and making most of absolute minimum in life and death situations would have so many spin off's for here on earth.
