    As a farmer, I would love that we start to see far greater integration of the plethora of small organisations/businesses like Agricology and Nature Friendly Farming Network etc etc who are all taking a similar approach with a similar message. The people who run these things need to focus on joining forces and creating a more cohesive approach.

    Fascinating. Nitrogen-fixing trees and shrubs normally have higher protein. Possibly broom species (Cytisus) and Albizia julibrizzin? In Mediterranean climates tree lucerne is commonly used (Cytisus proliferus/Chameacytisus palmensis), and in the tropics Leucaena leucocephala. Not nitogen-fixing, but possibly poplar species? Thanks for a great video.

    The way to preserve the leafy branches is through layering it with silage(fermentation of grasses for feed). Compact layers of shreded grass and leafy branches that are inoculated and covered in silage tarps to ferment and then feed to cattle over the winter.

    • @Rattlerjake1
      @Rattlerjake1 Год назад

      Yes. And for large cattle, pig, etc. operations, silage will give far more harvest then anything else. AND it requires less labor than this tree hay which is labor intensive.
