Charlie interviews Chris, a seasoned expert in regenerative farming. From Tasmania's Fat Pig Farm, Chris shares insights on the significance of water management and the role of new Australian megafauna in landscape rejuvenation. He highlights the importance of passing on knowledge to the younger generation and discusses the organic spread of regenerative practices. The conversation covers practical strategies in rainfall management, the positive effects of well-managed herbivores, and the holistic approach needed for sustainable farming.
