@MassieforKY Dear Congressman @RepThomasMassie,
While we’re Australian’s in Australia, we have been praying that you are successful in today’s election in the hope that you continue your incredible leadership in the House.
R-Earth 0.80 - Alpha Period Coming to a Close
After having a couple of months of a select group Regrarians members run their own tests, I have been working closely with Georgi Pavlov to continue the testing and development of very own farm planning software, working on actual projects.
The 50cm/pixel orthophoto in this plan is from Regrarians @DJIGlobal Mavic 3M RTK drone, processed using @DroneDeploy 's amazing software, which we merged into a single image from 7 different flights (60m altitude).
The R-Earth app can also merge different DEM tiles into a single tile, saving having to do so in QGIS. Drag n' Drop the DEM.tif into R-Earth and it automatically generates topographic contours.
We've also added the most important diagnostics from the industry's most affordable online map analysis tool: the Regrarians Base Map Service—https://t.co/LuKk3MIUeX—including: Slope, Relief, Aspect, Landforms, Morphometry, Polyhedral, Drainage & Watersheds.
Want to get access to this unique and powerful application designed by farm planners for farm planning?

This vid is doing the rounds again.
Around 5 years ago I set up a 24/7 self service staff-less butchery - it's still running. We have hundreds of members who pop in and do their thing, one less job for me!
A kid walks into a store & buys a sack full junk food: nobody cares.
A tax paying farmer tries to sell raw butter & milk to his neighbor: a mob of Karens, bureaucrats & lawyers is ready to crucify him.
This is absolute proof of a broken system. Take it from @JoelSalatin
Joel Salatin checking in here. I just wanted to let you know that I’m finally here on X and want to give a huge thank you to all of the people that helped spread the word about my account to help me get access back. I’m really excited to start posting here regularly!
Its a Wrap at the REXi12 at Polyface Farm
On Friday night we completed what was a fun and learning-filled 4 days at the incredible Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia (USA). 29 people from across the USA (and 1 from Ontario) joined the current cohort of over a dozen Polyface stewards and apprentices as we scaled all things farm planning from breakfast to dinner.
It was such an exceptional opportunity to traverse one of Polyface's newest lease farms and see first-hand how they were able to double that farm's beef carrying capacity in the first year and do so using a $150/acre makeover of water lines, fencing and management. And of course to also see the 64 years of development at Polyface Farm itself, with Joel and Daniel Salatin joining us to reveal so many details on both farm's planning as well as all of the financials etc.
We all enjoyed cooked breakfasts, lunches and dinners on the farm, thanks to Melissa Barth—complete with Joel's famous blessings, all of the fellowship between around 50 people at each setting and nourishment that Polyface is renowned for.
Thanks to all for their curiosity, enthusiasm and work and we look forward to continuing to ride along on the journeys of all of the wonderful folks who were able to join us.
Massive thanks also to the Salatin family and the entire Polyface Farm team—especially Joel & Daniel, but also to Missy, Wendy, Erik and Melissa. True professionals at what is still the benchmark agricultural operation in the world. We look forward to doing it all again.

Silviculture - Farm Forestry Plantings Progress 24 years on
@Regrarians Darren J. Doherty designed these plantings at Nulla Vale in central Victoria in 2001. And this is his first decent walk through them since they were established.
This particular section of the holding has plantings of Corymbia maculata (spotted gum), Eucalyptus globulus (blue gum) and Eucalyptus saligna (sydney blue gum).

Planned Grazing - McIvor Farm Foods - 7 August 2025 Flyover
Today I met with Belinda & Jason Hagan at their farm in what is our 15th year of working together.
It's been a comparatively dry winter and there is a very stark difference between their operation and those adjacent and across the district.
While the top dam has always been a challenge, the lower two dams we built are filling well from their 1:200 (0.5%) gradient catchment roads.
The pasture growth was a highlight. With such a late start in what is effectively a green drought, all of the work in developing the mineral and biological fertility over the years definitely pays off in these years of below average rainfall. While many pastures in the district lack vigour, have a lot of annuals and are only 2-3" high—McIvor's were 8-12", diverse, thriving and perennial.
Look out for some videos I took on the ground as I checked out some of this world leading operation. Also for some opportunities that are coming down the line.
PS. We stopped doing invoices years ago—going home with a big bag of their goodies and a lovely pea and hock soup is where we hope most of these jobs get to.
