[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 4165188, member: 63856"]For a government to suddenly do a 180° on what type of Ag to promote, endorse (and sponsor, probably)- is basically an admission of guilt - encouragement of damaging the land resources.
So it simply won't happen..
Nor do any fert companies want you to understand that by feeding denitrifying microbes you're making your land increasingly hungry for more solubles in the future.
I'm just fortunate I bought the farm off an "early adopter" and the hard yards were already done for us.[/QUOTE]
I believe a lot of sheep farmers are suffering from OP poisoning, due partly to the government insisting farmers dipped for scab, however they will not admit that there is a connection (as this would admit liability!)

Governments can be dangerously naive.
With many things you don't know about, you're only as good as your best advisor....
The OP thing is definetly true. Wait till all the farmers who are of an age were they could be suffering with the stuff are dead (and cant sue or be given compensation) and thre will be an admission that orgsnophosphates are dangerous and might even be banned. As if we didnt already know they were dangerous.
With an attitude like that they will be a long time before they will endorse or sponsor regenerarive agriculture. Maybe a very slow transition. Hopefully.
@Farmer Roy ive been following this thread but havent watched any of the videos yet. Been meaning to sit down and watch all of them but keep forgetting or get an alert about the thread when i cant watch a video like now. Ill get round to it eventually

While I 100% agree with everything said on this video. When it has a Facebook banner over the top and some pansy with a yank accent narrating it I all of a sudden find my less willing to listen.
Crazy isn't it. Think it comes from years of animal rights propaganda machine

That's quite a growth rate for BJ and it doesn't even show
Seriously, hard to argue with that in a year when others are struggling with dry conditions.

This paddock will be used for deferred grazing- have bulls in there on a tight break to slow the round.That's quite a growth rate for BJ and it doesn't even show

Hopefully get around 2 weeks of grazing off 6 acres - their DLWG may take a hit but it will give the other paddocks a chance to recover
A lot of rain/growth can happen in that time. And a lot of sun hours... give all the thistles a good crushing too hopefully.
Both mobs behind wires now, will give the topped paddocks some recovery time ahead of the impending lamb invasion, beginning Tuesday.
Paddock where these calves are headed was topped around 3 weeks ago. The one to the right a few days after.

As I’ve said before Roy no one in this country will embrace Change and try new things.
Very sad.

Yes Big problem and a lot were contaminated by the pour on cattle wormers in the 90s.
And the dreaded warble fly dressing.
