Sometimes the hardest part about making a change to your farming is figuring out how to start. Other times it’s about maintaining confidence in a new practice as you overcome challenges.

Join us for this free webinar with farmers Rod and Katrina Butler. They will share their journey of implementing grazing strategies that have built soil and landscape health on their sheep trading enterprise at Gimlet Ridge over the past 30 years.

Rod and Katrina will speak about the challenges they overcame, what they learned in the process and the benefits they experienced. These benefits include increasing stocking rates, reduced costs and also improved landscape health. Since changing their grazing management, they have observed increasing grass cover, pastures that stay green for longer and trees and birds coming back into the landscape.

This webinar is one of five events with graziers featured in Soils for Life’s recently launched Grazing for Soil and Landscape Regeneration Practice Guide. Developed with experienced graziers from around Australia, and some of Australia’s most respected grazing educators and training institutions, we’ve produced a resource that distils the most common principles and practices used by graziers to regenerate soil health and landscape function.

The Grazing for Soil and Landscape Regeneration Practice Guide was produced with funding from Twynam Investments and guidance from Judi Earl (Agricultural Information and Monitoring Services), Helen Lewis (Australian Holistic Management Cooperative), David McLean (RCS), Grahame Rees (KLR Marketing) and Brian Wehlburg (Inside Outside Management). We also acknowledge and thank the case study farmers profiled in this guide for their generosity in sharing their stories, knowledge and experience.

This webinar is supported by “The Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal” and Hand Heart Pocket.
