Soil Biologist Elaine Ingham Explains the Importance of Holistically Managed Grazing Livestock

[@anyakesakesa7395]

She looks like she knows something about what she is talking about and is passionate to pass the knowledge to others. In short, she looks like a honest and a kind lady.

[@terryeichler351]

It is such a pleasure to listen to someone who speaks the truth about soils and Mother Nature. She explains the way Nature works and then gives irrefutable evidence like comparing turf grass with 4.5' roots that have grown in the proper environment to grass grown in an improper environment that is obviously discussing and smelly.

Regenitive Agriculture in urban settings for apartment dwellers depends upon the willingness of landlords to allow the use of lands for gardening and the discontinuance of spraying grassy areas with herbicides.

@3:10 the "research" and "consumer" questions are flipped…nice video, though. Thanks!

[@johncourtneidge]

Yes

[@aysen8366]

Great questions...

I admire the work of Elaine Ingham

Actually, bossing the world is the wrong attitude. Ruling the world means creating the measurements by which we do things, and getting others to go along with us. Elaine Ingham, unknown to her, is, in actual fact, "ruling" the world. And, doing it really well, the way she ought to do it, with the knowledge that she has. Rule by education and persuasion is rule nonetheless! God gave us dominion and commands us to rule the world, as his representatives here. I appreciate the education Elaine gives, as it helps me in my job of ruling this world. Not "dominating" the world; ruling it...for the greater benefit of all, since we are all interconnected by God's divine providence.

Are you sure that the liquid dropping off from the compost (compost leachate) is full of beneficial bacteria? I have the impression that compost leachate is composed essentially by fulvic and humic acids. On top, I ha read that the majority of the bacteria in compost liquid are the anaerobic bacteria that develop in the fermentation occurring while composting (even if we attempt to minimalized the fermentation).In this case, it there is risk that it is pathogenic bacteria so it is advice to not spread it on your vegetable garden.... Do you have an opinion and an advice whether to apply compost leachate directly on vegetable garden or not? Thank you

For what it's worth. There's no better and admittedly kind of lazy way, to improve the garden. As a nicely done compost pile made upstream of the area we want to improve. Stop overthinking, let it take it's course. 'Cause she does it marvelously, no need to rush. Mother nature walk far and wide, but hate to rush. ;-) Just do it and be surprised. But as mentioned, if you have the possibility of doing it upstream of your intended application area, it's even better. Saves a lot of work and tinkering. ;-) Cheers Edit: By experience I can say that the results speak for themselves! Everything I was growing downstream of the compost pile was amazing! In stark contrast with all else that was away from the leachate influence. Notice in this particular case, no compost was spread in any way. Other than let it leach out by good old natural gravity! Absolutely no Human input other than the occasional watering during dry spells! With the added advantage it can be done with much smaller size of compost piles. Meaning sizes way more appropriate for a garden bed, than the recommended "huge" 1m3. Which would be a bit overwhelming on smaller beds! Something worth to consider! Where possible or convenient. A pile of compost upstream and close to the area used to grow. Can be an excellent, low labor input, way of gardening. Once more, let nature do the work! She knows best!

I studied Dr. Ingham's method and she would probably tell you that you need to learn to use the microscope. Pathogen bacteria can be told apart from aerobic beneficials by morphology. It's not a 100% percent, but very accurate still. That's a key point in successful application of compost.

love it

Like so many new gardeners I watched garden videos daily. and like so many it bits and pieces and I trying to make sense of it all. Where I'm at right now is at 66 years old it hard core facts about making my own compost. Of course 30% green to 60% brown but certain brown or green material can and will change the PH in my compost for intents coffee ground will make a more acidic compost. Do you have a list of material and how that material affects the Ph and other micro organisms necessary components with the soil. and Yes I do have my red wiggles and rabbit manure I hoping to get cow manure. We will see. Now I'm hearing about a new by produce brewer material I'm not 100% sure what it is put these mine brewer don't what it and they are happy to give it to you for the compost pile. Have you heard of this by produce? Is it good for the compost?

[@la912]

Do you mean compost tea?

[@shree0404]

Hi Thanks for sharing the info. Was very helpful over all, But. Im Having trouble with Radopholous Similis Nematodes, Can you prescribe a natural way of controlling these.... Wood really Appereciate.

[@johnjrgensen8120]

I hear that cows and sheep are a climate problem because of methane release from their digestion. Could other animals do the same good without the methane release?

[@t0dd000]

john jørgensen Ecosystems need animals... Which both sequester carbon and release carbon. The goal is net positive sequestration, which is what happens when ecosystems are restored. The climate problem you refer to are associated to animals removed from natural systems, to include humans.

[@raurkegoose5233]

There is no climate problem that isn't a natual cycle. Also, consider this: if we sequester enough carbon to "reverse climate change", we could very easily sequester too much carbon, pushing climate into a cooling trend leading to ice age. This is all foolishness, based on poor "science", emotion, and political/social motives. Cattle and sheep can improve local and wider spread environments (i.e. eliminate ground water polution and the dead zone in the Gulf) if managed properly. Remember that there were far more bison, antelope, deer, and elk on the plains in the US than the numbers of our domesticated herbivores.

Even animals destroy the earth let just eat them all😂😂 how about human those who farted a lot should be rested in peace to save the earth😂

@Old chunk of coal. I'm not sure that's helping much either

[@crpth1]

Writing, the obvious, OP probably was distracted and didn't notice! ;-) 8 minutes video interview... NO, it's NOT an entire dissertation on the subject. Some basic Q&A.
