Show Notes

Episode 8 - of the Our Regenerative Future Series.

In this podcast, our host and author Alina Siegfried talks with Greg Hart from Mangarara Station along with Gary Williams Permaculturist, soil and water engineer. 

The panelists discuss how regenerative agriculture builds resilience in all facets of the farm system from stock health and soil quality to profitability and the wellbeing of farmers. These regen ag farm systems are working for Greg and Gary in a climate impacted world as they outline the practices that have built more resilient ecosystems for them. Gary talks about the difference between a perennial system and an annual system, and the ways in which our current industrial food production doesn't work for us. They delve into the reductionist mindset of conventional industrial agriculture and the essential role of trees in a diversified and resilient landscape.
