Beautiful example of Silvopasture where livestock are grazed in a semi-forested area with great grasses, and moved daily to fresh pasture. The trees provide methane breakdown and bring perfect balance. The birds and bugs flourish in a truly living ecosystem. Livestock and dung beetles perform rapid nutrient cycling building rich deep soil that absorbs intense rainfall preventing flooding, preventing fires and holding water into the dry season preventing drought thus ending the hellish Flood/Drought/HellFire cycle. The vegetation provides a rainmaking biotic pump and cloud seeeding Pseudomonas syringae bacteria . #wildfires#drought#flood#Agroforestry#Silvopasture. Ignorance is hell. Knowledge in practice is heaven. #California Ecoystem Restoration is the only path forward to Climate Management.

After the post about the cows, here is another video, also from five years ago, this time about pigs.
This system was invented by my Father 23 years ago. It's a Maternity System that is part of nature. Besides respecting the landscape, once again we try, with the help of animals, to regenerate the ecosystem.
We don’t interfere nothing in the animals. No vaccinations, no deworming, no teeth cutting, no tail docking. There's no need to explain the benefits of an animal that is born, grows, and reproduces under these conditions.
Livestock is not the problem. The only problematic animal on the planet is us, if we choose not to be conscious.
sorry for the music I’m waiting for the drones able to catch sounds of nature.

🌲 Protecting Our Forest Guardians: The Vast and Powerful Role of Fungi 🍄
Does cloud seeding and weed spraying cause a tropic cascade leading to higher fuel load, high temperature forest fires?
Forests are intricate, resilient ecosystems, but they face growing potential threats from various sources, including chemicals like silver iodide from cloud seeding and herbicides used on roadways. These substances may pose significant risks to the fungal network that plays a critical role in forest health and sustainability.
Fungi are more than just decomposers—they are the forest's pharmacy, nutrition providers, and protectors. Beneath our feet lies a vast and powerful underground network of mycelium, the thread-like structures of fungi, forming an intricate web that feeds, fortifies, and shields the forest ecosystem.
The Hidden Power of Fungi:
Pharmacy and Nutrition: Fungi form symbiotic relationships with trees, enhancing nutrient uptake and producing bioactive compounds that increase trees' resistance to pests and diseases. This underground network ensures trees remain robust and resilient.
Natural Rainmakers: Fungi release spores that act as natural condensation nuclei, aiding in cloud formation and precipitation. This bioprecipitation is crucial for maintaining local climate patterns and ensuring consistent rainfall.
Threats from Chemical Use:
Silver Iodide: Used in cloud seeding to induce rainfall, silver iodide is potentially toxic to fungal networks. Damage to these networks weakens trees, making them more susceptible to pests and diseases.
Herbicides: Chemicals used for weed control on roadways can harm beneficial fungi, disrupting their ability to nourish and protect trees.
Consequences for Forest Ecosystems:
Increased Vulnerability: Compromised fungal networks leave trees exposed to pests like beetles, leading to increased tree mortality.
Reduced Rainfall: Disruption of natural fungal processes can lessen rainfall, affecting the overall health of the forest.
Higher Fire Risk: Weakened trees and increased tree mortality from beetles create high fuel loads, raising the risk of severe forest fires.
Protecting our forests means safeguarding the fungi that sustain them. By understanding and mitigating the impacts of chemical use, we can help maintain the delicate balance of these ecosystems, ensuring forests remain vibrant, resilient, and capable of withstanding the challenges of a changing environment.
