    This is a good example of why people need to become a little more "ungovernable". Time and time again, you hear him talk about how the government gets in the way and actually stops any attempts to repair things. Okay, then stop asking for permission. Stop going out to get permits. Don't bring in heavy equipment. Just go out there into the smaller channels and build Beaver Dam Analogs that can hold back a few gallons of water before they overflow. Every river first starts as a tributary, a tiny little trickle. Put a small weir across that trickle, a BDA, and you've helped hold back the rains long enough for nature to do what she does best. You can build a dozen Beaver Dam Analogs along a tiny stream bed just like the beavers do. Beavers only weigh about 100# at most and yet can build dams that hold back tons of water. All you need to do is learn from them and do the same thing on a smaller scale. Working on a big river like in the video might be too much, but that river's fed by tiny little creeks up higher in the hills, away from prying eyes.

    • @aaronsandford3568
      @aaronsandford3568 5 месяцев назад

      Re cropping and livestock. It would be done through the use of contours above the Pastures. The contours are an 'artificial' replication of a healthy chain of ponds, creating positive inground water pressure ect. For cropping, the area in between contours is very intensively grown but is so much more productive. PA writes about it in his book calling it third/third/third system. Top third emulates a rainforest on the ridges. Bringing fertility to the Middle which is for cropping. Lower third is filtration. This can be done fractally all through the system or on scale. Stuart, PA's son, has got a Joel Saltin multi-species rotational model plonked ontop of a NSF mainframe which works well. However, PA often points out that actually cutting feed from the bottom of a very productive system and bringing it to the animals at the top (who's primary role is the grinding of the material). Gravity then takes the fertility from the manure down through the whole system again. He says it is more energy efficient then a cow burning all the energy moving all over the place. Very interesting stuff.

      You don't need that guy. You just watched him explain how he jump starts the natural process.... so do that. One of the simplest and easiest ways to get started is to just travel up into the hills away from everyone, and build what's called a Beaver Dam Analog across a tiny little trickle of water. Build low stone walls across where water will flow when it rains. Anything that slows the water down is a good thing. Build structures that are only one rock high, and build lots of them along the path the creeks flow. If you get the water to stop for just a few minutes before it flows over the little dam you built, that'll give it time to sink into the ground. Then it hits the next dam a few feet downstream and slows down even more. And then the next dam. And then the next. You can work with brush and stone and dirt all found right there where you're building. Every little bit makes a difference.... and then nature will take over.

    Too much money and corruption going on to fix the Murray-Darling. Australians need to demand and revolt if necessary through their votes at the next federal election to DUMP BOTH MAJOR GOVERNMENT PARTIES removing them from the political landscape and instead electing a FULL INDEPENDENT REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT The basis: purely based on the evidence of neglect and outright corruption by private land owners/farmers AND politicians and their agents that has destroyed the Murray Darling - - so all the present government ministers (all of them) irrespective of their portfolios are responsible for the colapse of the MurrayDarling - it is Australia's disgrace!
