So what was the reason you planted through green cover and not rolling before?

Ideally how many days rest( growing) period should be maintained in each block Sir🎉🎉🎉

Soil health was a thing in 08. The western world has just ignored it

Is non selective grazing the same thing as mob grazing ?

All those cover crops giant fields of compost tea .

This was 2 months before he died.

I was just at brandt family farm

What a legend

Sounds like someone has been reading 'holistic management'! Dr Nichols is brilliant, no doubt about it, but also please do go back and read Savory's book, as what it's really about is the "new framework for decision making"...

It's funny that he was scaremongering about 4 degrees temperature increase. "They have a model that says it will outgas some carbon". Well, adding 4 degrees to South Dakota weather will give you Kansas temperatures or thereabout. It's not exactly a mystery or a disaster. It's an improvement.

Wonder how long it will take for the info about Round up to disseminate - people know it's a chelator and it blocks the uptake of minerals by plants (so the minerals aren't in the plant or fruits), and here's yet another "settled" lawsuit where its proven in court that its cancerous. This lawsuit is supposed to order Bayer/monsanto to cease saying that it's "safe for the environment and safe for people and animals". Its time to work on other solutions, and pour-ons are another thing to take out of the mix.

Absolutely correct. Farming is soil knowledge. What is it, what makes it work, what keeps it healthy, why doesn't it need to take breaks, what can I do to help? Start that journey to ensure the success of your operation. Got clay?, turn it into black loam (Dr. Elaine Ingham) Got sand, same answer. Get microscopic life on every square inch and watch it support growth which turn into dollars. It may not be too late to start but when you do become a little bit obsessional, become passionate about not your crops/meat/income but your soils capacity to support you.

God rest his soul.

Great stuff! Thanks!

Very exel

RIP

Rest in peace mate

Great man and innovator You know a tree by its fruit and his life produced much fruit It was a life well spent He will be missed May he rest in peace

RIP

Rest in Peace, goodsir.

It wasn't much for many... But it was honest work and more for us. RIP.

rest in peace

What book did he say was amazing?

@26:21 forests are as ill-managed as crops have previously been (and mostly still are.) Controlled fires are actually the answer to a lot of their issues. Fire is completely endemic and natural in a forest. Additionally, forestry is still largely monocropping. With controlled burns, diversity, and proper management, forestry should be able to meet or even exceed regenerative farms in carbon sequestration. Basically, we need a regenerative forestry movement as well.

Promo*SM 😥

Thank you for all the information, I learned a lot. I did not like the use of glifosato to kill weeds( this kills and poisons everything for centuries to come.😢)

Watching from Australia, good info cheers

Thank you for sharing!

Something doesn’t add up. What’s going to happen when the tax credits go away or not as profitable?

In your food web, the nematodes after fungi and bacteria should be labeled as fungi and bacteria eaters (not root eaters).

Always enjoy listening to Kris Nichols

I've seen some of the GMO-hybrid corn as low as 3% protein. Meanwhile, conventionally tillage grown Ried's Yellow Dent at 9% and red/blue flint corn as high as 14%. I wonder if Brandt tried Bloody Butcher/Blue Hopi if he could boost it higher yet.

Very good expansion, thanks for sharing your knowledge both farmer and SD

Nice presentation From a nutrient management standpoint you should be banning fertilizer period the amount that we have been able to reduce inputs by going from recommended rates of broadcast to banding and our own trials period we have eliminated dapper map from our strip till and potassium and AMS is less than 50% of recommended With tools like The Haney test and sap testing we can now really come up with a proper nutrient Management program

From my understanding, adding sugar as mentioned, will increase the bacteria population, when the talk was about increasing fungal dominated soils. I use molasses to feed the plant leaf life though😅

Vernon Evans was a true inspiration

Mitchel, with your rye/soybean relay, do you have significant concern for rye showing up when you combine the beans? Our crusher zero tolerance for gluten showing up in the sample.

wow ! posts in the bales !

I kind of wonder if his the guy next door is going to get help from him sometime soon. pull up that tile someday.

Glyphosate was originally patented for its antimicrobial activity, so it's been proven to be highly detrimental for soil health.😔

I was just thinking my dad is so darn stubborn and stupid sometimes! Yet he is a smart man.......most of the time!!!

If you don’t have 50 worms per square foot of soil you have bad soil

Never sell is my thing Buy and buy Never sell

Why would Dave be looking into compost tea when he says he does not use biological if a field has had cover crop usage for 2 years, and since he has been cover-cropping for many years? Unless he is acquiring new ground on regular basis.

This guy doing the lords work. I wish that the USDA did a better job support guys like him.

The Video indicated it is nearly impossible to track Soil Carbon. That is incorrect. It is trivial to measure Carbon in Soil... and to track changes over time. ALL THE ADDITIONAL CARBON (each year) COMES FROM THE ATMOSPHERE (or from a truck if you're using Biochar or Compost... it's still Carbon that WAS IN THE AIR recently... AND NOW IT ISN'T).

Spending $Billions to transport and bury CO2 is ridiculous. The Scales of the tonnages of carbon is just crazy...> $150/ton. Sequestering a measly "CO2 Ton" worth of Carbon in Ag Soils only costs pennies (e.g. Biological Teas from a pound of Johnson-Su)...AND PAYS OFF $Hundreds that year. The SOLUTION: Incentivize Farmers to transition into Soil Regeneration. Way cheaper to sequester CO2 in Soil... Then it is an asset that pays off is a dozen ways for Decades to Centuries. The Climate Crisis is fixable via Soil Regenetation. But the Climate Crisis is a Fraud. The Fraudsters don't want any REAL SOLUTIONS.... they want the FAKE ISSUE... to control energy prices (i.e. greatly Increasing Energy Costs). A well managed International Soil Regeneration Program wouldn't cost anything long term...Instead, it would Pay $Trillions in just a few years. AND IT NEEDS TO BE DONE ANYWAY. Benefits: • Vastly reduced Fertilizer Needs • Soil Erosion can be virtually eliminated • Rainwater Capture can approach 100% (over 10" of rain per hour never happens) • Pesticides and Herbicides can be virtually eliminated. • Most floods could be avoided • Our Great Aquifers would get refilled • Croplands become virtually drought proof. • Topsoil IS ADDED To Our Croplands...going DEEPER. After a decade, topsoil depths frequently increase from 6" to 24". • Our Rivers and Lakes would no longer be poisoned with all the Fertilizer, Pesticides, and Herbicide runoff. • Ocean "Dead Zones" (no Oxygen) would be eliminated.
