    I have a deer trail on my property and I'm amazed at what their hooves plant. They bring in moss, wispy grasses and other things I haven't identified yet. It seems the deer are better at gardening than I am.

    My mother worked for soil conservation services for more than 20 years. My father had a small dairy farm ( that made money) ..mom was not impressed at times with the college trained people in charge. She thought that sometimes they had no commonsense and had solutions that cost money when it could be solved with some of the very old fashioned practices that were either forgotten or more labor..I watched my father move to a new farm and fix everything from water retention to soil building. We never had a tractor..it was done with horses. Horses could go onto fields to do work without causing the problems such as rutting up fields..etc.

      Your mother is 100% correct. Sadly, those methods are hidden from us today. But just reading the Jadam book explains the ancient methods your mother mentions

    Beautiful and thank you for this. We need more farmers like this. Only one consideration; you can add more fungi and bacteria to the soil. Worm casting and worm casting tea is the "cure" for soils that are poor in microlife.

    Don't need to convince us conventional Ag is horrible, we have the last 50 years as evidence of how horrendous it is.
    No system that can be considered a properly functioning system needs MORE inputs every single year. That is what's known as a failing system, and that's the current model.
    A failing system. Not a failure, because people were fed...but if we want to keep doing so, regenerative agriculture is a must.

    Do they water during the day? That's not ideal! Maybe it's just for the documentary...
    Though watering at night is a pretty good soil saving habit that could prevent fertile crescent collapse 2.0 ... Cuz watering during day leads to evaporation which leads to the minerals in the water crusting up and eventually possibly during the ground into saltpans!!
    But I'm just nitpicking I'm sorry!!!! It's such a good documentary! I will refer it to everyone I know!

    We do No till and cover crops and in NO way should you be using chemicals(they call it burning) to kill off the CC. Just use the proper cover crops for that specific cash crop coming(normally just beats and turnips/radishes). We are Not healing the soil when you have to use MORE chemicals than before. Those chemicals are literally killing the microbes and good organic matter. Very poor farm practices on that farmer.

      Completely agree! The Soil Food Web needs to the first thing farmers learn before they even touch the soil!

    Plant trees for goodness sakes. It is like people are blind to trees! Like 2024. I planted already over 800 trees & shrubs on my 4 acres & am 66 years old. I can sell my wood for 10s of thousands of dollars. We eat apples fresh & other fruit fresh & stored.. Some of these guys looks like go to store & buy fruit. Like how long does it take to plant a chestnut tree? More long term crops like walnuts or saskatoons so forth & trees to never be harvested should make up 80 percent of land base so it becomes more productive. Greedy farmers but can't afford beef some of these is my guess. Like all profit going ro buying equipment. Maybe smaller tractor?

    This is a fascinating documentary in many ways but “no culture without agriculture” is both wrong and racist 😅
