An excellent presentation in a very brief format! Great idea to reward the farmers by good stewardship incentives by crop insurance cost reductions or some other real incentives. (I live in Polk County, Oregon, in gorgeous farm country) There are more cover crops being planted out here in the 30+ years that I've lived out here but its more gradual increase than it needs to be!
I'm a farmer and I started using cover crops. Amazing soil response, healthy plants, much more water reserve in the soil. The only "must" is having a soil with some water to germinate the seed.
There's a lot of prairie that would respond to swale-and-berm techniques associated with desert environments, thereby preserving the Ogallala aquifer. I'm thinking specifically of eastern Colorado, where water rights seem to be based on the idea that Los Angeles owns not only the Colorado, but also the Platte rivers.

@Jefferson Theodore Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Over time less fertilizer fungicides insecticides herbicides. More profits less work lower fuel costs better water quality. REGENERATIVE AG. The future of the planet
I'm doing a presentation on agriculture in my engineering course, can someone confirm this is correct 'cover crops are plant organisms spread over a field of crops and it helps the crops with...' I just can't seem to find an explanation of cover crops like that anywhere. Thanks
Jesus, most farmers are so damn stubborn! I was thinking 50% at least used cover crops, not 5%! Crazy. Hopefully the next generation will get the memo.
Conventional agricultural practices view soil as an inert substrate for chemical fertilizers. Its been that way since the end of WWI, when the military-industrial complex (read DuPont) was producing huge amounts of nitrogen-rich explosives, and needed a market for such chemicals. Your county agent was trained that way, and that's the advice (s)he is liable to give you. In fact populations of soil biota respond to plants' root exudates and transform plant-required nutrients into more bioavailable compounds. It's an extremely complex process, but it just occurs automatically when you allow nature to take its course.
Regenerative techniques are MORE profitable than conventional methods due to the reduced cost of inputs once healthy soil is established. However, they are less well-adapted to corporate-scale industrial "farming."

No offense, but every household should have its own small piece of land and Farm. There shouldnt be farmers that own hundreds of hectares. The land belongs to the people and people should learn to farm.again. this is sustainable. This is God's way.
Excellent information. This is important to get out there for MORE people to understand the benefits and importance of cover crops. Thank you.

NONSENSE, FARMERS ARE DUMB AS TOAST BECAUSE THEY LET THE GOVERNMENT TELL THEM HOW TO FARM. TRUMPS ADMINISTRATION WILL BRING YOU BACK TO THE BASICS.
I'm glad to see large food farmers using organic methods. Us hippie cannabis cultivators have been utilizing these methods for a while now.
And normal farmers have been doing this for centuries..
@mitchellmaytorena....NOR likely to quit NOW....
@@sportbikeguy9875 ....right up to the point where they began engaging Morbid Farming Practices building FOR.... and leading TO.... suicide.
Nitrogen is a primary component in urine! I love these people! Protecting the environment from their own plants. This is epic! Good job yall!

Some, that restored Deserts, use Organic material like Straw in a ditch to lay seeds on or under to hold the moisture :)

MUST #2. STOP SPRAYING JUNK ON OUR FOOD.
This was great man I’m so happy to hear this dude is growing organic. Good for you man.

@Jefferson Theodore it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account !
@Houston Bodie glad I could help :)
Thank you for saving our soil! ❤️🤗
What a beautiful farm! Inspires me to be a farmer myself :)
This video was so good ... Thank you
Excellent video
Thanks for doing cover crop! It helps me too by providing more oxygen in the air and filtering out CO2. Appreciate it!

The dislikes are from fertilizer companies.
Yeah
What kind of cover crops are used? Any ideas to share?
Annual Grass, Barley, Cereal Rye, Oats theres way more you can check out on USDA website
Organic Growers School/cover crops basics has so much info
Organic Growers School has a great deal if specifics

Good informative video
Thank you 👍

So what exactly are cover crops?
Is there any way to plant cover crops and follow no-tilling? Is tilling mandatory?
@pardhapothana.... in a word.... No....
Tilling is not mandatory! One can use a roller crimper!
Very good job, bravo...
healthy soil = healthy plants
is it only applicable to an area that has winter?
im from a tropical area that has only rainy and sunny season.
@jonesesente.... commonly known as rotationally grazed JUNGLE@goats&chickens@RotationallyCleared&GardenedW/jungleMulchFoodProduction....
Well said! Thank you. Good stewardship. Good idea!

If you want to return it to the next generation in better shape you should return a portion of it to the GLORIOUS PRAIRIE it once was..
Love it

Hey
nice
If we can't hit corp wrote shall hit the farmers at the beginning of it all

music ruined the video. Can you please upload this again with out music? I would really like to watch the video.
Not a big deal, it is all clear!
