  • Internationally renowned groundcover and soil ecologist, and founder of ‘Amazing Carbon’, Dr. Christine Jones kicks off the conference with a presentation on a healthy soil microbiome and how that translates to healthy people. Using a historical and systems approach, Dr. Jones lays out how civilizational collapses have occurred because of topsoil loss -something that is happening at an increasing rate today. Our depleted soils are also having a big impact on human health. Yet biological answers, including regenerative practices, hold out hope for soil reconstruction, and microbial diversity in our soils and in our human biomes.
    Christine Jones, PhD is an expert in her teachings of air, land, and water sciences and founder of Amazing Carbon and Carbon for Life Incorporated, in order to publicize an efficient, effective and prosperous way for Australian farmers and citizens to eradicate mass emissions of greenhouse gases and improve soil quality in order to create an abundance of thriving resources for Australian produce. Jones will be speaking on optimizing the liquid carbon pathway and microbial diversity in healthy soil.

    Thank you very much for the great presentation. I have been working on converting my farm to regenerative agriculture for about six years. And you know what the biggest problem is? It's myself. My education, my beliefs that I brought with me. And the best way to overcome those problems is to listen to lectures by Christine Jones. Actually, it sounds very simple that diversity is the key to success, but to realize that with technology and tradition in agriculture is not done overnight. But I will get there, my friends.

      Watched a doco-movie about this process on Stan _The Biggest Little Farm._ When the couple put up owl nesting boxes the viewer knew they had finally worked it out. Goal: you are creating an ecosystem for all the endemic species to protect your farm from predation by summoning the predators - the age old _Rabbit and the Lynx_ story. Or: for every unwelcome pest there are many (newly welcomed) predators. Enjoy the snail segment!
      2: Greg Judy (has a YT channel) puts up Sparrow nests to eat the flies that pester his critters.
      Good luck.

    Thank you for confirming what I have thought for some time, plants are the best soil input.🐸excellent presentation!

    I rather promote wildlife than cattle. Surely, of all those hectares for beef & milk production some can go back to natural succession?

      I tend to agree with you. Wildlife like Earth carers are removed from "Capitalism" and eternal growth yet connected with nature. I have looked at the Bushman and agree with Toby Hemmingway that Hunter gatherer Culture is totally Susyainable

      @@brucedownunda7054 We can do one better using this information to build up areas around settlements to feed the population. The numbers work out people feeding themselves y growing biointensively would free up 95% of the land now dedicated to agriculture, back to wildlife. This crowd would never agree, they want to save the hierarchy. The consumers being dependents they are can't make the leap. Fascism 101: Feed a captured market. That is why we now hear about regenerative agriculture on the various media sources, the fascists need both the biological material, which is becoming in short supply as mentioned, and the captured market.

      1: Informed, sustainable food production requires less land for human needs. Which is what Dr Christine Jones has just said.
      2: See: Allan Savory's desertification recovery projects in Africa. While being working cattle farms they share/co-exist with/enhance wildlife habitat (for both predators and herbivores) as the damaged soil needs animals in large stomping, tromping, munching, mulching, defecating herds if they are to become healthy grassland. Ignorance is a primary reason for the world's major deserts; early man over-hunted them (and for racist and political reasons as well) and removed the essential symbiotic relationships. See: also Greg Judy's work on recovering the land he works with, which includes some new desert projects.
      3: I'd agree with the sentiment but first you have to have a thoughtful process as man has to undo much of the damage his dull mind has already done. I'd suggest going with intelligence first and that says understanding soil, soil, and soil.

      @@RickLarsonPermacultureDesigner Neither of those statements make sense. Humans are the quintessential masters at screwing things up. Nature is brilliant at building all by itself. Allan (and those who expand on his seminal work) are the first glimmer of a link between the two. He'll get by just fine without your 'support'.
