#150 Ches Meyer Challenging Conventions: The Journey of a Regenerative Rancher
The show delves into the world of regenerative ranching and evolving agricultural practices. It features conversations with Ches Meyer, a second-generation holistic manager, operating an 11,000-acre diversified ranch in Southeast Montana, and discusses his experiences in managing Angus cows under challenging conditions. The dialogue explores key topics including holistic farming principles, farm and water infrastructure, and the significance of diversity in farming practices. A personal recount of transitioning towards no-till farming, implementing new strategies post wildfire, and embracing species diversity presents an insightful perspective. The show also covers the exploitation of agritourism via platforms like Land Trust, aimed at bridging the gap between urban populations and the ranching community. The debate concludes by stressing the necessity for farmers and ranchers to adapt to environmental changes and strive towards expanding their supportive network. ------------------------------- No Till on The Plains!
