Tagasaste management

[@marschlosser4540]

Where I live in Arizona, brush is the feed. Mostly mesquite, it has the same feed value as clover and once they get the idea, livestock will browse it to death. The Big Horn fires ate up over 40,000 acres on the Catalina Mountains. The fire spread till it hit pastures and stopped. Cattle break down dead growth and crush much of it into the earth where termites use it. Rather than a fire hazard like was on the mountains it's converted to fertilizer.

This video has a volt of information, thank you so much for sharing

That tree trimmer needs to be in a zombie movie.

[@jordsupp]

Excellent - one hears of Tagasaste as a bit of a weed but, when properly managed, it serves a useful purpose. Some great ideas here, including the farmer's learning over the years. Thank you for posting.

[@petarogers4324]

Great presentation thanks, and I enjoy hearing what you've learnt over the years of growing. Thanks for sharing!

I have bought a lot of tubestock & plan to add this to a depleted 4 acres in the NSW Southern Highlands. It makes sooo much sense as a windbreak, food source, weed retardent & soil stabilizer.

[@AdoptedDaughterofJesus]

how did it go in that area?

Quite an informative video. Thank you for sharing.

Cool

[@peace4peaceful]

I bought about 50 of these as seedlings to trial. They all died. I am 20k from the ocean on the east coast. Would they grow here? I have heard not. So I gave up. But it looks a very good option.

[@elizabethblane201]

Cattle are in great condition.

[@karlfimm]

Interesting, even for someone like me, planting tagasaste on a 1Ha lifestyle block in New Zealand.

[@samlowry9978]

Hi Karl, Just curious how that worked out for you and why you decided to try it? Cheers.

[@zestoslife]

@@samlowry9978 many reasons. Attracts / food for native bird, kereru. Feed for pet / meat rabbits, sheep, goats etc. firewood, chop and drop in building biomass / soil. Wind shelter / shade for newly planted trees.

For insects I would try smokey wood vinegar. I have used this for 2-3 years and it has many benefits. Pyroag.

has anyone tried using a harvester to bale the foliage for an alternative to hay and selling to regions in drought ?

Why do phenolic raise from grasshoppers but not from the cattle?

After planting, at what stage do you prune to maintain the tree at knee height ?

From where we can get seeds of this plant anyone please guide me From india🇮🇳

[@terrykerrieward9575]

Hi team, I've been thinking about growing this tree for some time, but in drought now. Did you grow from seed and if so did you inoculate so it can fix nitrogen? Great presentation BTW

[@OffGridInvestor]

You gotta sandpaper one side of the seed skin, pour hot but not boiling water on them and let them soak overnight, then inoculate them. They're not an easy thing to germinate, quite a bit of playing around. Smaller ones don't like hard frosts, it'll kill them but adult ones have no issue going down to -6C and some say even -9C. They can't handle being waterlogged. In the flooding in Victoria this year, a guy my dad knows lost ACRES of mature trees near a river, killed the entire lot thru roots being wet for months.

[@lmvcnn]

Wonder what impact on soil after many years of fixing nitrogen to soil?

[@itamararaujo1550]

Como consigo essa planta? Tem sementes? Tem como enviar pro Brasil?

[@lokesh303101]

Shrubs for productive soil.

[@ec5wjk3]

very interresting. No till and press wheel at the begining of the video. Tagasaste need pH 4 to 7. In Algeria we have more than 7.
