    Under 150 views, this is a roadmap for farmers and gardeners to boost productivity, soil health, carbon sequestration, you name it. It’s all here, it’s long but packed with info. The q&a at the end is useful. Thank you and thank you to all farmers taking this route, it will literally save our ecosystem🙏👍🍀🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱

    Thank you so much. Just listened to previous podcast 100?? Gabe what a guy excellent principles .how can man fall when nature is the template we use to regenerate humanity through eco agriculture even tho we're not fully there yet those bars need to be placed so we have a direction to follow and placed in the right direction. I do believe that agriculture is more powerful than anyone realised. It's going to be a template for a better existence in the right way .I only hope that the technology that gets allied to it is used apropriately and engineered to fit it's purpose rather than just a way to manipulate finance for no other purpose than that. It's a big responsibility to carry and it's going to take exceptional people to attain in the right way and it's up to everyone to support the cause and for it not to get hijacked and steered wrongly. Thank you to everuone who supports the cause.

    My son in Germany is reading your book to me. We are not farmers, but we find the book so hopeful! Really enjoying this presentation.

      The news is distressing and had me so bummed out. Regenerative ag is so encouraging. We aren't farmers either.

    Crop plants maintain a "rhizosphere", or a concentrated area of microbial activity close to the root. The rhizosphere is the most active part of the soil ecosystem because it is where the most readily available food is, and where peak nutrient and water cycling occurs. Microbial food is exuded by crop roots to attract and feed microbes that in turn provide nutrients (and other compounds) to the plant at the root-soil interface where the plants can take them up. Since living roots provide the easiest source of food for soil microbes, growing long lived roots that feed the foundation species of the soil food web as much as possible during the growing season should be a goal of farmers seeking a productive and profitable crop.
    Roots associated with SWRT membranes have been shown to last all season long, contributing greatly to the improvement of soil quality because they have the nutrients and moisture they need.

    For people who don't have the budget to puchase books like Gabe's, or the recommended book Nourishment by Fred Provenza, check your local library.

    Gabe gets a good start 4:00 in. Thanks for sharing what you have learned over past 3 decades. It is very hope-giving. PS: Who of sound mind has enough patience for politics or politicians???

      Monopolistic agrobusiness lobbies who make money when farmers go into debt We need to enjoy it a bit more because when politicians’ constituents start demanding change in the policies which encourage and subsidize the absolute worst practices at home and abroad they will listen.

    My son recommended I listen to Gabe. Amazing passion and well thought out methods. Any know if charcoal is beneficial to soil?

      @loganyoutube4818 2 роки тому +1

      It is but you have to load it with nutrients first or it will suck all the nutrients out of your soil for the first year if you don’t load it with nutrients

      You'd do better to invest in a worm farm for the house and get the worm tea to spray or seeds, and add the finished compost to whatever garden area.

      Some soils benefits from bio char others not so much.

    • @monicacruz4407
      @monicacruz4407 2 роки тому +5

      If you listen to the q&a, Gabe addresses biochar. The problem with it is it’s production and transportation, you can get carbon into your soil via decaying plants. Just do the no till, cover cropping and you’re there

    When man is seperated from nature then society crumbles.
