    Podcast Short #11: Building Resilient Farms with Gabe Brown

    Gabe Brown is a renowned advocate and practitioner of regenerative agriculture from North Dakota, who runs Brown’s Ranch and is the co-founder of Understanding Ag. He is recognized for his innovative approach to farming, focusing on enhancing soil health, reducing dependency on synthetic inputs, and using sustainable practices.  Gabe transitioned to regenerative agriculture after experiencing years of poor crop yields due to extreme weather events. Today, Brown’s Ranch consists of several thousand acres of native perennial rangeland along with perennial pastureland and cropland. Their ranch focuses on farming and ranching in nature's image where he demonstrates holistic, eco-friendly farming practices and educates others on the benefits of regenerative methods.  In this episode, John and Gabe discuss: The importance of ongoing education in agriculture, specifically in soil health and ecosystems  Maintaining an open-mind to avoid divisiveness in the regenerative agriculture community Adapting agricultural practices based on each grower's unique environment, economic, and family Taking a gradual approach to reducing chemicals on farms The importance of soil biology and mycorrhizal fungi How learning from a hands-on approach allows farmers to see benefits on their own land Additional Resources To learn more about Gabe and Brown’s Ranch, please visit: https://brownsranch.us/ To learn more about Understanding Ag, please visit: https://understandingag.com/ About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

    Episode 134: How a Crisis Led to Change with Tim Parton

    Tim Parton has been the farm manager at Brewood Park Farm, a 300-hectare farm located in South Staffordshire, UK since 2003. Tim shifted towards regenerative agriculture after a serious farming accident and personal health struggles. These experiences deepened his respect for soil as a finite resource, motivating him to farm in harmony with nature. By reducing harmful inputs like herbicides and fertilizers, he has increased biodiversity and improved long-term sustainability on his farm. Tim is critical of chemical farming, believing it offers short-term fixes at the cost of soil health. He advocates for reducing inputs like phosphorus, which he hasn’t used in over a decade, and emphasizes restoring carbon to the soil. Though he’s not an organic farmer, Tim focuses on practices that align with nature and ensure both profitability and environmental care. In this episode, John and Tim discuss: How chemicals used in farming can harm both people and the environment How regenerative farming improves soil health and can impact farm profitability The influence of chemical companies on modern agriculture The importance of farmer empowerment and gradual transition to regenerative methods How connecting farmers with consumers can drive demand for healthier, nutrient-rich food Additional Resources To learn more about Tim and Brewood Park Farm, please visit: https://www.timpartonfarming.com/ About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

    Episode 133: The Power of Companion Planting with Ian Gould

    Ian Gould is a leading figure in regenerative agriculture in the UK, whose focus is on incorporating plant diversity into conventional farming systems to improve both environmental health and productivity. His work includes researching how companion planting and varietal differences within the same species, such as wheat, can enhance crop resilience, improve nutrient uptake, and optimize biomass production. In this episode, John and Ian discuss: The role of multi-species cover crops in improving soil health and productivity Innovations in companion cropping and intercropping for increased yields and reduced pest pressures  The challenges and benefits of integrating plant variety diversity into mainstream agricultural How smaller, more vegetative plants are often more resistant to frost in the UK climate Nutrition management for disease and pest resistance The importance of varietal differentiation as a critical component for optimizing yield and achieving environmental benefits Ian is the director of Oakbank Game and Conservation Ltd. His work is driven by his early experiences in plant breeding. He first encountered regenerative ideas at the UK’s Groundswell Festival.  Additional Resources To learn more about Ian’s work at Oakbank, please visit: https://oakbankgc.co.uk/ About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

    Episode 132: Diverse Cover Crop Systems with Keith Berns

    Keith Berns, co-founder of Green Cover Seed, is a key figure in the regenerative agriculture movement. Raised on a farm in South Central Nebraska, Keith was a teacher for 10 years before returning to the family farm in 1998, where he and his brother Brian adopted no-till techniques. In 2006, they got introduced to multi-species cover crops, which transformed their farming approach.  Inspired by the positive effects of diverse cover crops on soil moisture retention, plant health, and livestock, Keith and Brian co-founded Green Cover Seed in 2009. The company has since grown significantly, now providing seed for over a million acres annually and playing a pivotal role in promoting regenerative farming practices across the U.S. In this episode, John and Keith discuss: Experimentations that led to diverse cover crop systems Moisture efficiency in multi-species cover crops Weed management through cover crops Increased livestock performance with diverse pasture Nutrient cycling with broadleaf cover crops Additional Resources To learn more about Keith and Green Cover Seeds, please visit: https://greencover.com/ To download Green Cover’s Soil Resource Guide, please visit: https://greencover.com/freeguides/ To learn more about AEA’s seed treatment products, please visit: https://advancingecoag.com/seed-treatments/   About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).
