I just moved to San Antonio a year ago from Miami. I am new to gardening, and have been getting into planting natives. This was a great presentation. I hope to restore land like this some day.
Good work ,learn by doing for your specific land and soil . Well organized presentation . Unfortunately the state AG commission and AG companies promote the invasive species anu excessive use of chemicals and water .
My bet is Allan savory would discourage the use of roundup and 2/4 D. He would probably not use negative language of invasive species (you’ll never beat them). Thoughts??
I think you are correct. If invasive could be eradicated they would have already been eliminated. It may be easier to breed cattle that will eat invasives and flourish.
I am currently restoring a native prairie on our land about 5 acres. The detail of this presentation was fantastic but my heart sank when I kept hearing how much Roundup/ Glysaphate was used to rid of the Bermuda grass. For anyone reading this Roundup/ Glysaphate is extremely toxic to our environment, not only does it kill plants but also all other living things in the ecosystem, it's also a carcinogenic chemical that affects us humans. I am shocked that wildlife restoration would even consider Roundup as an option. The organic alternative should have been controlled burning as the burn puts nutrients from the organic material back in the soil.
CHECK OUT THE SAVORY INSTITUTE> NO ROUNDUP AT ALL> NATURAL AND VERY QUICKLY MOTHER NATURE PROVES HER STRENGTH> WATER CATCHMENT AND ANIMALS> LESS THAN A SEASON SEE REAL RESULTS> THIS ONE IS THE EXPENSIVE CHEMICAL COMPANY ENDORSED OPTION! ALL LANDS ARE DIFFERENT AND THE GREEN WALL OF AFRICA THAT THE WOMEN STARTED IS AN AMAZING EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE CAN DO WORKING WITH NATURE!
@@amymartin7500 The reason for an evasive plant is the health of the soil itself> Savory Institute has Over 75 Years of Experience in Restorations of Lands all over this Planet! Mother Earth and Human Beings working together> Goats may be the best way to get rid of woody plants and sheep good for evasive grasses?
These chemicals are called "Forever Chemicals" = PFAS PFAS chemicals have been found in almost everything from compost to baby formula. Hope the courts put the manufacturers out of business.

Unfortunately, burning has little impact on eradicating Bermuda grass.

Roundup does not kill "all living things". It breaks down in 7 days from exposure to UV light, sunlight.
