    Bonus Episode - Gabe Brown

    In this bonus episode of Stockyard Sessions, we sit down with global regenerative agriculture leader Gabe Brown, recorded live at Wilmot Field Day 2025 Gabe reflects on more than 30 years of farming, sharing how drought, hail and financial pressure forced him to rethink conventional approaches and begin working with natural systems, which transformed both his soils and his business. He unpacks why healthy soils underpin healthy plants, livestock and people, how diversity builds resilience, and why carbon is a byproduct of better systems — not the goal itself. With Wilmot Field Day 2026 fast approaching this March, this bonus episode offers a taste of the conversations, insights and inspiration that make the event a standout on Australia’s rural calendar.
