    Good morning, Tim, a cracking story, and great to young farmers in one of the toughest parts of the Ag industry. They are obviously passionate about their farm and profession. And with dairies closing almost daily, they are here to stay. My best regards to Linda & Andrew, Cheers

    A WONDERFULL story Tim and congratulations Linda and Andrew on your courage to change 👏👏👏👏
    I to have flicked that switch; starting some 10 years ago, up here in Northern Victoria but only to see minimal acceptance or even acknowledgement by others. I began making compost on dairy farms around 4 years ago too but now focussing on my own patch, which is now achieving great growth (from Lucerne being reintroduced), great results (20%P, 10%ME).....and less work! Go figure!! 🤷.
    I now classify myself as "the slackest farmer in Nth Vic" 😅😅
    Once again, well done! 👏👏

      Think about the animals. Poor innocent victims !!. 1 life !!. The Animals got 1 life, and you take that away for a 5 minute meal when you can have vegan burgers and vegan burritos and vegan curry etc. I’m not a selfish person ✅♥️💪😬🦍🦧🐵🐒👩🏽‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏼😎👍. Mushroom🍄‍🟫 ’steaks’ UA-cam delicious.

      It would be interesting to know if they are still applying Phosphate and Potassium.

    Love this inspiring video, especially the clean water dam. With the paddocks, have you tried the treatment in strips rather than doing the whole paddock at the same time? (ie leaving machinery width strips undisturbed throughout the paddock so that there is a microbial reserve untouched. The last year strips might help in times of drought, severe winds, lack of crucial rainfall at critical germination times, and intense rainfall.

    Impressive. Its possible to fix nitrogen from the air using legumes but what other elements are exported in milk and how do these get replaced? They can be extracted from parent rock via soil microbes as one way. My point is kicking fertilizer completely might not be possible.
