You are the voice of reason sir!
thank you for the work you are doing around the world Allan : there's need to change the way we practise agriculture....
my greatest wish is that : if you could meet with the leadership of our country , Zimbabwe . design a framework of holistic and sustainable agriculture policies , to alleviate poverty and build a sustainable economy through Agriculture
You poor bastards need the chance to compete. US subsidies of farm products, one of the few areas Africans should have a comparative advantage, absolutely crush opportunity.
I wish everybody could understand this.
Allan Savory uses common sense, like a good Chef uses salt. With moderation and on the right spot, with outstanding results!!
Cheers Mr. Savory
I believe that Allen is truly a pioneer / innovator whom we ... all homo erectus ... should be listening to vis-a-vis agricultural policy.
When he talks about the problem of how government bureaucrats are causing the problems and that farmers should be able to make their own decisions I felt like he was missing an important subtlety. I say this because farmers will have to work collaboratively. Allowing individual farmers to make decisions based on their own short term interests will not lead to improved agricultural practices. To me the solution is that instead of having the executive branch of each gov't selecting the minister of agriculture, farmers themselves should be electing the ministers of agriculture. The idea is that you want people who can immediately see the actual results of any given policy to be responsible for deciding what the policies should be.
The reason, why the so called climate crisis is still the main topic and not agriculture crisis, is because there's money to be made in the climate crisis ("We don't have time" etc.) and the industrial agriculture (chemicals, soy production). Thank you Allan for your common sense. We need more of you to solve the problem!
People don’t believe him because he tells the truth......you can in this country alone, truth is a hard pill to swallow.
We have 8 BILLION people to feed now. We should eat grass-fed cattle but that does not feed this amount of souls. Cows are not designed to eat grain they have 4 stomachs.
The worlds grassland has so much unused potential that it could easily feed the world, with the consequences of fixing much poverty and violence, and stabilizing the climate as well. We should demand aid organization to focus on this.
Fewer people!
fix the grasslands and desserts, managed graze some of the unplowable land.. use alley cropping and silvopasture.
How painful it is for such people like Allan to be disregarded in his own country? The legislators do not listen to the academics, for the sake of power.
100 scientist that tried to shoot the messenger, and not one that was able to shoot the message.
Grow organic plants ,stop eating so much and start sharing.
This man is a snake oils salesman. He is making huge claims but short on the detail, he sounds more like a prophet than a scientist, kinda like a salesman for the latest fruit extract and how it will change the world. 5:30 what difference does it make how cattle is grazed for people in London? Allow me to qualify, not a totally evil guy, just someone who sees himself as a prophet, "if only the whole world thinks like me, then you'd be happy " Good intentions, and possibly some good grazing advice, but clearly too hard to manage because of the intensity it requires (in one speech he talks about how fences are not enough to get cattle to do the intense grazing they need ). he is more in the realm of holistic medicine than climate change savior.
There is 1000’s of farms that use the principles he speaks to with phenomenal results. Maybe go find a few of those farms and see for your self. Mine is one.
And your response right there is exactly the problem
His outcomes have been proven over and over again, I've read many of his peer reviewed case studies and any that I have seen work. But you keep playing with your crayons and glitter, I hope that works out for you.
