He was in Australia last year & gave a few talks, including a local one in a small hall, very much a Q & A session apparently

Unfortunately, I couldn't make it despite looking forward to it for months. There is a recording of that meeting somewhere but I can't find it at the moment.
Because of obvious environmental differences, what works for him may not necessarily work for us, so it's not like we can just ask him for a "prescription" - however we can be inspired & take his concepts & ideas & adapt them to our situation. I think that applies wether someone is on the other side of the world, or even your next door neighbour. Every situation is an individual. I think at times some govt & regulatory bodies don't realise that . . .

Took my parents and uncle to see his presentation this winter, well worth it. Ray archuleta was there as well. So then I could point at them and tell my dad and uncle "See? And you think my ideas are crazy?"

His principals are sound, does not matter where you farm. The difference between where he is and here are fairly significant, have to figure where you want to go and work towards it. Boer maak n plan!
 
Based only on news reports, its sounds like pornography for people that like foreplay and aftermarth, without the boring sex scenes.
Being a boring fart the only programme I try hard to watch is the Keiser report on RT (Russia TV) Tues and Thurs 8.30. An ex NY? Banker who regards our present form of capitalism as unsustainable. For about two years he kept saying Douche Bank Deutche Bank) was insolvent. I personally thought he was risking getting a Zillion dollar lawsuit to shut him up.
Lo and behold he was right!!!!
He and his compatriot Tracy give our and US establishment kittens.
Well worth watching RT to get the alternative view to our BBC bullcrap.
