Good to see, and an illustration of just how much work you make for yourself when you turn your back on your culture and heritage. For eons, European peoples planted and maintained hedgerows. They used them not only for boundaries between plots, but for resources. As they trimmed the hedges, the wood became products for their homes. The hedges provided food and medicine. And, they found that their livestock was healthier because pests were kept in control, as well as the hedgerows acting as shelter for the herds. All of this was known, but people turned their backs on it. Now, we talk about installing new hedgerows not because it's a benefit to us, but because it's seen as a way to help nature. While that's a good thing, I think we miss the mark a bit when we suggest that People are not a part of nature. We act like humans are some kind of interloper precisely because we've forgotten so much of our generational knowledge. That's what happens when you ignore the lessons learned by your ancestors, instead thinking they were backwards or unwise in the ways of the world. Now folks are seeing there was wisdom in what they did, and it's good to see a return. I only hope that this is the first step and soon we see people tending the hedgerows like they once were, local craftsmen producing goods for local customers. Then you'll see a renewal of the deep understanding.

Not only doesn't he hate "european colonizers who destroyed their own land". But he also doesn't hate humans as a species and doesn't call them cancer. You're not welcome among the eco death cultists, my dude 😂 Also, we need to stop modern system of ochlocracy (crowd ruling) and either start a true democracy with only citizens voting (about a 10% of population max) or return to the much more healthy monarchy.

Now you need to contain the ruminants to a small area with movable electric fence/one wire, move them to similar small paddocks daily and give each paddock 60-90 days rest before return. Seed bank and diversity will return which will augment your efforts with the hedge. Do another hedge off a swale along the contour of that nearby hill and you will increase the aquifer under your pasture making everything there more alive and drought resistant.

Muchas Gracias por tu trabajo! I hope you can help Spain to thrive once again.

It's important that Spain as a developed Southern European nation invest heavily in regreening itself to the benefit of all of us. Bless you for your investment and hard work. ❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

@@hulking_presence Свои посадки на топливо пустили, уже на испанские начали заглядываться. Анька Колас высаживает, эти следом идут вырубают. Конвейер.

The hedges also act as windbreaks, and if they are managed correctly can provide a natural fence line making barbed wire redundant.

Well done. 👍

Great work!

They mention and show several times the 'electric shepherd': electric wired fences. I imagine those are pretty good for keeping out any grazers, wild or domesticated.

@@Judith_Remkes ; Thank you Judith Remkes. This type of fencing will only keep out cattle. So livestock, or cows. Dit type electrische draden houdt hooguit koeien en paarden buiten. Reewild stapt er onder door, en konijnen hou je er ook niet mee tegen.

the trees aren't planted too near? When they will grow the will not have much space.

yeah, just another green washing video. Probably was originally steppe or meadow anyway so all the last few species that need that hanging on will disappear.

That is normal for a hedge. It means more ground cover from the start, the soil will retain moisture, and more variety of fauna that can use the trees as cover and food. A tree getting large isn't the only function it can have in an ecosystem. When designing systems like this, one always has to take multiple factors into account.

In the UK, we plant hedging plants 12 to 18 inches apart, that can be done in single or double rows, it makes a nice thick hedge, which is good as a barrier for livestock.

Hi 👋👋👋👍👍👍

Are all of your trees and shrubs native to the area? If the planting area was a lot bigger, the cattle could just live in a wooded area instead of just grass. Grass is a biological desert.

No it's not if it's done right, as someone who grew up on a farm you'd be surprised at the amount of wildlife grasslands support if managed well. Currently a lot of cattle farmers overgraze their paddocks until there's nothing left, and if they have an excess they cut and bale it for feed. If you choose to rotate your cattle more frequently mimicking herd rotation in nature they don't eat the grass down to nothing, they eat some, drop nutrients when they need to go potty, and trample grass which creates a mulching layer trapping water in the soil, and allows the grass to bounce back quickly. When grassland is managed like this it is teeming with wildlife, there are thousands of grass nesting bird species, and in the USA in particularly they were particularly badly affected by the near extinction of buffalo due to their nesting habits being tied to this graze trample move technique that buffalo herds use and some ranchers mimic. I have seen this first hand, if you need more evidence there is a lot of content on KZread you could research on both grassland ecosystems and holistic grazing
