Mr. Teague is saying at 23:10 and on that research needs to determine 'how good is HPG as a regeneration and mgmt tool'? I think that's been established

"graze again before the forage is too mature", I thought it was important to let the plants mature?

okay I see, I thought he meant to graze them before they go dormant which is pretty impossible if it only rains 4-6 month out of the year. The stage after the soil dries out and the plants turns yellow, they are still nutritious. .

@@Gustav4 I have a background in farming and ranching. What are you curious about that is actually germaine to improving soil carbon and soil moisture. My previous answer above was rushed. I should have added that once fields yellow they've largely stopped growing, and the chance for more feed is reduced, because the tops have died. Diverse plantings encourage soil biota that transfers moisture to where its needed by transportation and mycelium, etc. The forbs break up hardpan while also balancing animal nutrition. Trees can be added for coppicing, to supplement livestock feed, as well as fruit, input and leaf harvests, and to provide shade. Shade is useful in summer because grass doesn't grow when it gets too hot, and it can also reduce cattle stresses, allowing animals to put on more weight/produce more

Everyone should watch this video. October 2018. Book 'USS Lincoln 1958' going to a museum tomorrow. Your fans may take interest: "p. 29 ...As a result of WWII, Japan was deprived of almost all of her oversea territories, and Japan is no longer in a position to even make a self-support of rice, a staple food for the Japanese peoples. Even in a normal crop year, therefore, Japan has to make up for the shortage of her domestice rice output by importing more than 2.5 million tons of foods, and Yokohama became the nation's largest base to handle more than 30% of the imported foods by Japan after the War. Besides the National Silo controlled directly by Agriculture and Forestry Ministry, there are large food factories in Yokohama such as Nippon Flour Mill, Showa Sangyo, and Yokohama Sugar Refinery. Today's exports: iron, steel, machineries, automobiles and vessels.

Would this work with chicken. Not particularly big but easier to transport and contain.

chickens follow the cattle about 3 days later. The chickens scratch out the patties and eat the larvae. also drop their highly nitrogenous manure. but yes, you can do this with chickens too. lookup 'pastured chicken'

This all makes sense to me, I have no problem with what Teague is saying. My question is this: how do we continue to feed people carbohydrates? Wheat, rice, potatoes, corn, sugar are all grown in monocultures. How do we adapt those systems? Of you grow a wheat crop with a multi species mix (as opposed to a monoculture), how do you collect clean seed at harvest?

I have heard Gabe Brown speak and have read much on Seis (I live in Australia) and understand that little of their crop ever reaches human consumption. You are right in what you say, but I still don't know how we feed 9-10 billion people without monocultures. And yet I believe (mostly through exposure to farmers on twitter) that it can be done. Do we just have to run the whole harvest through a seed cleaner? That would do the job in many cases but the amount of energy required would be huge..

It matters what you grow. Corn can be grown with hairy vetch or another legume that doesn't grow high and the corn can be harvested easily. Most of the diversity would come from diverse cover crops in the fall and spring.
