Roots So Deep film - Waikanae

An inspiring, positive, data-driven, human, and good humoured film about Adaptive Grazing and its beneficial impact on ecosystems and farmers' pockets. The filmmaker gathered a team of 20 scientists across multiple disciplines who did the research across five farm pairs. These were neighbouring farms - one using adaptive grazing and the other conventional grazing. The results speak for themselves.

There's no doubt that the effects of this film will ripple around the country in the coming months and years.

“This is, hands-down, the best agricultural filmmaking I've ever seen. The characters are all so likeable and captivating, the graphics are stunning, and I learned a ton about ecology… But none of that would matter without Peter Byck’s soul and empathy as a storyteller" Bill Weir, CNN
