Mob Grazing at Clive Bright's farm
มุมมอง 7K6 ปีที่แล้ว
"You are what you eat, eats" M. Pollan Meet a Fair Food Farmer: Clive Bright @therareruminare Clive is a leading advocate of regenerative, mob grazing - an approach to livestock farming that builds soils, repairs grasslands & can sequester carbon. An organic farmer in Sligo, you can find out more & connect through our Fair Food Finder at www.foodture.ie

Meet Eamonn and his family on their farm in Mayo. He spoke to us about the vital role of crop diversity, seed saving, and the preservation of traditional farming knowledge in Ireland as much of it has already been lost over the last decades.

Nathalie met Aoife at the FoodWise workshop organized by LYCS earlier this year where she talked about social justice and also facilitated a cooking class. Aoife is one of the head chefs at the Fumbally and when we visited her, she talked with us about their approach to sourcing sustainable and fair produced food and the importance of the chefs creativity in creating local, seasonal dishes that...

Every story has a begining. Ours began in this earlier this year, its been a busy few months but we're almost ready to share.......follow us on Facebook, instagram, Twitter @ foodture_irl www.foodture.ie
Thanks for this! I’m a long time subscriber of Greg Judy. It’s cool to see the people he has helped and inspired. I’d like to here more from this rancher about all the science of regen ranching!

Greg Judy is mind blowing.
Ideal and wonderful, wish all farming could find this again, well done
You wouldn't mind toning down the volume of the music a bit in the mix? I'm a big film buff and this is a pet peeve of mine when it comes to youtube videos, thank you.
It's great see farmers like Mick finally getting it. There's a wealth of videos about regenerative agriculture (Regen Ag) using cattle, sheep, pigs, goats, chickens, ducks, cover crops, no-till etc. on TH-cam with techniques which can easily be applied to Irish farming to get off our apparent reliance of fertiliser (turns out it the "need" for fertiliser was merely a management problem). The other day I was in Kilkenny for the day and from when I crossed the River Nore in the town until I crossed it again several hours later spray fertiliser was continually coming down the river at speed, along with all the topsoil from the surrounding farms...loss of profits...pollution: i.imgur.com/LgY7tPc.jpeg We have the techniques and principles, they exist...we just need the will and energy now to learn and to change. More profit, more biodiversity, building better soils for next generation, building organic matter through sequestering carbon from the atmosphere, cleaner environment, higher nutrient dense meats, eggs and dairy (this has been measured in labs; you can also taste the difference). It's a no-brainer...Ireland needs to change. Farmers like Mick are leading the way.
It’s great to see an Irish farmer employing these tried and true methods. Everywhere all over the country look out a bus or train window and observe overgrazed field after overgrazed field. A visual palette of mismanagement. Irish farmers accept field floods as normal these days. It’s very sad. They have no idea it can be prevented. They need to be educated on these methods and what they do to the water and carbon and nitrogen sequestration abilities of our soils. Bare fields are another MAJOR issue here in Ireland. Grain and crop farmers in Ireland need to find out about cover crop cocktail mixtures (and grazing for an extra oomph) as alternatives to environmentally destructive, inefficient and costly tillage and sprays. Farming in Ireland is asleep at the wheel. We should be leading the way.
👍👍👍👍👍
Fantastic, researching this for adding mob grazing to rotation next year.
♥ Foodture ♥ Wonderful ♥

I don’t see any fly’s on your cows, looks so peaceful.
I like your farm. Like all of those stone walls, must of taken a 100 years to build. Joe in Florida,USA
