Hot wire fencing isn't just containment for pigs; it's a powerful tool for pasture fertilization. Learn how this smart farming technique boosts soil health and farm productivity. #FarmTech#SustainableFarming
Tick-borne areas can destroy cattle if not managed properly. Instead of chemicals, one farmer integrated Nguni genetics. Their cattle now handle tick pressure naturally, as Nguni blood actually sterilizes the ticks that bite them.
Ian Haggerty naming the real bottleneck in regen ag.
It's not the farmer. The farmer will adapt.
It's the supply chain. The labelling. The logistics. The infrastructure that doesn't exist yet.
This produce sits between commodity and organic — and needs to be valued accordingly.
The industrial cannabis complex in America has steered away from a healthy movement embracing complexity. Big players have taken over, prioritizing chemical sales over true quality. #CannabisIndustry#ComplexSystems#FoodProduction
Meet Princess. 7 months old. Daughter of Nandi — meaning queen.
Jake Wolki building his Nguni herd the long way. $8k for older cows most would pass on. First cross 50/50. Second cross 75% Nguni.
Generation by generation. 🌱

Ian Haggerty on working with native intelligence at scale.
Cover cropping a large brittle environment costs a fortune. Fuel. Machinery. Carbon.
Get rain from October — summer-active natives just come. Through the crop. From nothing. No seeding. No cost.
Jake Wolki on pasture poultry economics.
Buying feed in bulker bags? You're giving away money.
Minimum viable scale in Australia — 3,000 to 4,000 birds. Below that it's a hobby.
And the silo? Call your feed mill. They'll finance it interest free over 12 months.
Too many apps.
Too many spreadsheets.
Too much admin.
After nearly a decade in regenerative agriculture, we built the platform we wished existed.
GXL brings grazing, livestock, cropping, biodiversity, infrastructure, compliance, ESG reporting and farm records into one place.
Track it.
Prove it.
Improve it.
Built with farmers. Not for farmers.

Starting in farming is tough for young people due to challenges and bureaucracy. But there are empowering ways to begin with little capital, offering hope and practical solutions. #Farming#Agriculture
Imagine doubling production on the first year, every year, in any conditions. That's the power of knowing what can be done. Dad's early influences, like Voisin, proved it's possible to achieve incredible results with the right approach. #AgriTech#Innovation#Farming
Building a mobile chicken coop? The first one cost $6k and took 2 days. Now, with your own mill, you can save thousands by stripping timber. Upcycled materials give that rustic look, blending perfectly into the paddock. #DIY#Homesteading
Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm with a number that stops you in your tracks.
A lab tested 12 pastured egg farms across the US.
Folic acid in a standard egg: 48 micrograms. Folic acid in Polyface pastured eggs: 1,038 micrograms.
Jake Wolki of Wolki Farm is embracing the remarkable Nguni cattle breed. Known for their resilience and calm temperament, these animals are a perfect fit for expanding the farm's herd. #NguniCattle#WolkiFarm#SustainableFarming
Conventional agriculture tries to control nature, instead of conforming to its patterns. It's about imposing will, not understanding the beautifully designed template already here. Embrace what was here before and will be after.
The soil slake test shows a stark difference: heavily tilled soil (right) slakes easily with bacterial dominance, while reduced tillage, lower nitrogen perennial ryegrass (left) creates a stable system with fungal growth and more aeration. Soil health matters! #SoilHealth
Exploring the powerful link between soil health and mental well-being. Discover how farmer Joel maintains resilience and health, proving age is just a number. #SoilHealth#MentalHealth#Resilience
The drought conversation is missing something.
We talk about rainfall and dams. We rarely talk about the soil itself.
Fields with cover crop history have infiltration rates 3–5x higher than bare ground.
Add 1% organic matter = 150,000 litres more water holding capacity per hectare.
The drought resilience infrastructure is already there. It just needs to be built.

Martin Royds' property in NSW is one of the most remarkable examples of Natural Sequence Farming in Australia — and these drone shots show exactly why.
Transforming a farm with simple steps: chickens, strategic grain sourcing, and a game-changing composting system. Early composting in the '70s with a wood chipper accelerated growth and improved fields. #SustainableFarming#Composting
