Episode 006: Nutrient density & resilience derives from pastural diversity with Rob Lennon at Gundooee Organics

“Resilience is derived diversity” 

Certified Organic perennial pasture raised beef is the future of protein. 

Gundooee Organics is the Delicious produce awards 2021 State Winner and in this episode, we will learn how to farm more than organic adopting regenerative principals for ultimate nutrient density.  

Rob Lennon is a cattle farmer that produces soil microbes which create a living soil that grows deep rooted native perennial pastures that the cattle eat. Rob breeds second cross wagyu angus certified organic for almost two decades.  

The wagyu becomes flavorsome due to the perennial pastures which Rob has supported to enable animal feed diversity for maximum nutrient density. Plant availability, plant palatability, nutrient density and plant digestibility as a cattle farmer leads to resilience.  
 
Consumer spending habits for food in Australia can create the change in nutrient profile for our overall health and support climate change. We talk about the slow food movement in Australia. Grass fed and finished is no longer enough, we need animals eating deep rooted perennials.  
As a breed, wagyu has higher levels of unsaturated fats, omega 3 and the CLAs.  

Gundooee Organics is all about education, what to ask the table staff, counter staff at the butcher, or online, he is passionate about educating people as to ‘why they should be paying more for their food’’. Food is not simply a gut fill.  

In order to get living soil back, and what Rob loves about organics, is understanding systems and passively and patiently working with them and watching them develop and you create an environment for what you want in a positive way rather than killing what you don't want in a negative way. And it's a function for life as well. It's a lot more positive way to live, generally, to be doing more positive things.
