#RealisticRegenAg | There is money out there for the taking for things like seeding cover crops, the cost of the cover crop seed, soil mapping, soil testing, splitting your nitrogen applications using inhibitors and even for hauling and applying manure, compost and digestate. You can also get money to establish perennials or top up legumes in your perennial stands.

#RealisticRegenAg | The chickpea-flax intercrop has been something studied and used in Saskatchewan for quite a while now.

2023/02/20

#RealisticRegenAg | Manure is not regenerative. Now, I admit that is a little bit of a click-baity title, but I'm gonna go into this because it's seems to be misunderstood that manure or for that matter compost and digestate are these free fertilizer sources that farmers are just not using, but they're not as simple as it seems to be portrayed them.

#RealisticRegenAg | Instead of trying to get more from the land from over yielding of intercropped cash crops, I advocate for focusing on intercropping cover crops instead. Cover crops growing with the cash crops can be implemented without losing yield and will build long term profitability instead of short term gains.

#RealisticRegenAg | Intercropping has been gaining popularity on the Prairies lately. If you haven’t heard of it, or are still trying to figure it out, the basic concept is to grow two or more crops at the same time on the same piece of land. In this episode I cover the theory behind it and where it may fit into our agricultural systems.

2022/04/04

#RealisticRegenAg |What if, instead of trying to find a solution that fits every year, we expand our planning to include the current water cycle? In a drought, fallow with cover crops and cash crops on alternate years may be the best solution. In rainy cycles continuous cropping with cover crops interseeded at weed control time may be the best option.

#RealisticRegenAg | Hello! This is Scott Gillespie and welcome to Plants Dig Soil. There is a lot of hype in the regenerative agriculture space right now. My goal in this podcast is to cut through the noise and get to the realistic practices that will work for farmers. The practices have to be profitable and they have to be proven to get past my filters. The episodes are short and to the point with critical thought put into what is claimed and what is real. I tackle topics such as cover crops,
