Description
Farms are an expression of a climate, soil and farmer's potential. All need to be considered in order to create holistically functional systems. Reaching this depth is a complex task, but thanks to the work of innovators like Darren Doherty we have tools and techniques that help us make smarter decisions.This episode deals with the big picture: the patterns, the behaviours and the context that are vital to any farmer and his 'whole under management'. Too often, planning is not given enough emphasis, causing huge losses in resources. Darren bring his vast experience to the table, in an interview that we hope will make you think as much as it made us!Enjoy! • TABLE OF CONTENTS03:00 - Introduction to Darren and the Regrarians Platform13:10 - The role of IT in the agricultural transition18:00 - The limits of consulting26:50 - Trees as a farm's backbone (potentially)38:55 - The economic potential of timber trees on farms47:40 - Reasons why we struggle to add trees to landscapes01:01:00 - Design tools and methodologies01:09:10 - Delving into the scale of permanence01:22:30 - Holistic management as a planning framework01:27:30 - Challenges of farming regeneratively01:37:50 - The next Regrarians REX training• RESOURCEShttp://www.regrarians.org/https://www.facebook.com/Regrarians• GET IN TOUCH www.regenerativeagroforestry.org• SUPPORT US www.gumroad.com/regenagroforestry• FOLLOW US on Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
