In this episode, Canterbury cropping farmer Mike Porter talks about how his early experiences with soil erosion on the family farm led to the adoption of alternative approaches to arable production. From early no-till experiments to the discovery of the role plant roots play in regenerating soil structure and health, and the integration of livestock into a truly diverse farming system.
Over several decades, he’s turned a steep rolling block many wouldn’t consider cropping into a high performing dry-land farm that stands as testament to Mike’s innovative approach and constant desire to improve the way he farms. Enjoy the episode!
