Read moreUnlock solutions to pressing environmental challenges in our webinar with Ernst Gotsch and SFW Student, Philip Barton. Ernst will introduce us to his Agroecological Farming Model and will share his experience and vast knowledge about management, ecosystem benefits, and pest and disease issues, as well as highlighting some of the projects he’s worked on around the world, including a soy and cotton plantation where yields increased by 130%. Philip partnered with Ernst to compare the soil biology of 4 Brazilian landscapes and found remarkable differences in soil microbiology. This research underscores the transformative potential of combining Agroecological Farming and the SFW Approach as a blueprint for regenerative agriculture.

Read moreThank you so much to Diana Siswarton for filming our conversation about water together. Neither of us know how to use technology, and I don’t know how to perform in front of a camera, but we both love water and want to bring it back into the landscape and into people’s awareness. It’s also kind of the first major talk about the principles and philosophy of syntropic agriculture, the science behind water retention in the landscape, and a little warm-up for our biggest syntropic agriculture-related event of the year, https://www.syntropickezemedelstvi.cz/kurz-s-bastianem…/.
