The Science Behind Holistic Management | with Dr. Richard Teague

Описание: There is science documenting how when managed properly, cows aren't destroying the environment. In fact, with holistic grazing (one of the soil health principles of regenerative agriculture) ruminants can improve soil health and restore ecological function.

Dr. Richard Teague has published numerous research articles showing the benefits of adaptive multi paddock (AMP) grazing. Check out his google scholar profile here:
