Brilliant, simple ideas and practices. The SLM 01-12 videos are impressive. Well done.
BUT ...
I'm now looking for the institution or project which *applies* these ideas on a large scale.
Any idea where I can find it ?
I've been watching these videos recently. I'm curious about this too. I wish they would do a follow up or a series on development with these practices over time from the beginning. I wonder what the areas shown from 2013 are like now five years later.
Brilliant, clearly presented, series. I will be transferring these techniques to here in Mexico. Gracias!
Brooks Anderson Hi Brooks, glad you like the programems... also check out other useful practical videos (including these) at www.accessagriculture.org
I went to the site and watched a couple of the videos. I got some ideas that will be useful here in the arid areas of Northern Mexico, especially arid region water conservation. I will be watching the others. Again, thank you!
Brooks Anderson There are new videso being added all the time to Access Agriculture, soon there will be a number that have been produced in South America that may also be of interest - and in Spanish!
That sounds good to me. We have been experiencing drought, high rainfall variability, and seasonal shift in rainfall (we got good rains two months early this year and many plants are out of sync with their pollinators) and desertification (goat-caused in many cases). Seeing different approaches is really helpful. I'm looking forward to the Spanish versions. They will help me spread the information here.
I was just thinking the exact same thing. I can not wait to get to work in Mexico and see the transformation of my land. I also can't wait for everyone to call me crazy and then watch the results. It will bring about alot of good laughs and oppertunities to teach others which will bring about even more change! One more year state side, and then we are moving!
