True...less till to no till..that's the answer to perfect soil health. Getting couple of farmers from here in India and putting them into such farms can turn things around. More yield..more money n more power to u..!!

This is excellent. I share this with my environmental science students at UMass Lowell. I thank you for taking the leap of faith to try this form of agriculture!

I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but to me the no-till corn looked like it had less but larger kernels. On the other hand, the conv. tilled corn appeared to have more but smaller kernels.

I'd be concerned about the "spraying-out" of weeds. The weed residues left on the surface are all dead and impregnated with glyphosate residue, most likely. Glyphosate is an herbicide that blocks plant metabolism -- it is a "systemic" herbicide. People have been able to prove in court that their health was adversely affected by glyphosate, specifically through cancer; any worker having to deal with this compound should be very cautious.

Up next: figure out a way to not use any added fertiliser. Especially considering the grazing. Try different grazing methods. Or mixed crops, or what they do in Oz and NZ by going grass below the crop. It can be done, and you can save more money. Best of luck.

Wonderful, our fathers knew better did they not? Crop rotation and the fact that the cattle manure was delivered, not hauled! Lacked a total financial balance sheet per acre, i.e. the saving on feed plus the improvement of yield per acre. Tha young man will go far and others must surely follow?

wonderful ! This reminds me of Allen Savory and his mission to bring grass lands back to our deserts that are growing every day from land erosion and Too Much Rest ! Land and animals have always worked together until we interfered ! Also if folks would do this to hold the rain our rivers would flow again like they are in every holistic agriculture use in absolutely Once sterile soil !

Congratulations Jason. What kind of sowing machinary do you use ???? , because I sow different crops with a direct seeder and the trouble is that old furrows are disapearing, then, the irrigations are getting harder and harder. What do you advise me ???? Best regards, from Peru.
@diannaskare78295 жыл бұрын
hopefully my input is not being disrespectful but I am wondering if you have seen the work of Allen Savory in 5 continents ? Its an Holistic Plan for Life but works well with any agriculture! Food or Fiber ! Not once has this failed to bring back growth and stopped erosion but held water till springs , creeks , rivers , and even tube wells that had been dry since they were drilled FILLED WITH WATER and this was in one of the driest regions in Africa! It works for small or industrial …..

@Klaa2yes and they naturally fertilize, moisturize and cultivate your soil by stepping everything into the surface before moving on . Now some moisture that lands there will be able to stay instead of evaporating or running of ….. etc.... Mob grazing is not the same as Holistic but close . Its whatever works for your family that you work with ! But "overgrazing" is a very destructive Term for what was naturally done in groups when they had predators and humans depicting their movements ! Ages ago they noticed the land erosion after they put up fences!
@diannaskare78295 жыл бұрын
LOL sorry I meant after humans built fences and protected their livestock they no longer bunched but spread out and ate only what they liked and too much was being left to oxidize which keeps new growth from coming so the earth dried out . with livestock cultivating in tight groups then moving on they were keeping our grass lands healthy and sending tremendous amounts of water to the deep aquifers . with fences and controlled agriculture we started this process of land erosion and the speeding growth of our deserts thousands of years ago and nothing else we do has any lasting affect . This Holistic Management of Allen Savorys is a way back to healthy land, animals, food and lives!

Obviously, you're no "true believer" in permaculture or organics. You were the "poster boy" for conventional until you did a little questioning, a little experimenting. Your journey down the rabbit hole is just beginning. Save this video. You will have a good laugh at "this guy" 20 years from now. Want to speed up the process of enlightenment? See Joel Salatin on the importance of marketing and listening/learning from customers when direct marketing. In the dead of winter, by the fire, read, "The One-Straw Revolution", Masanobu Fukuoka.

Don Duncan he’s not growing farmers market produce mr enlightened one. I’m awake as can be and what you ppl don’t get is ranting at farmers isn’t going to change things. We are doing our best and trying to go the best way, but we can’t grow thousands of aces under the perfect organic situation, plus we have only big corporations like Monsanto that are the only ones doing research and funding big ag. I agree, change needs to come, but conventional farmers are trying
@1voluntaryist6 жыл бұрын
Monsanto funding is for Monsanto's profit, not your's. Do not assume it's a win-win. The permaculture research has been done. Joel Salatin has farmed for 34 years and learned the hard way so you don't have to make the same mistakes, just listen. No one can decide for you. That's your job. It doesn't happen overnight, over a season. Your whole life will be constant change. It's up to you how much you benefit. If you believe "...we have only big corporations..." you are doomed. They have different goals from yours and different values. Early farmers had good and bad practices, handed down. But they had one big advantage, rich topsoil, built up over millennia. They took it for granted, never even thought about conserving, just using, like others took the bison for granted, just harvesting. So, the soil fertility was slowly depleted, you could say mined out. In a manner of speaking, the "farmers" were really miners. One result was the Dust Bowl.

Unfortunately some Organics still use herbicides this is not any more healthy then Round up poison . Livestock are used instead of fertilizers herbicides and pesticides are kept to a minimum and natural where possible but with livestock disruption to compact ground the best is complete cover of each patch before moving them and in ONE YEAR they had a full abundant crop ! IN AFRICA DESERT !!!!! Why shouldn't mob grazing work the first year for this guy when he learns more and the uses of goats to clear noxious weeds(you can rent in most places now) then livestock to cultivate and fertilize they use Less Water and have hardly Any Soil Erosion! Proven!!! Never Failed ONCE !!!! Clean water Clean meat Clean crops = Healthy Land and More Profit
