    climate change the best solution I have heard, seriously.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Controlled grazing, minimum or zero till have been practised in Australia for many years so we are probably well ahead of the curve in this compared to Africa.
    I can recall how surprised I was when going to the Southern African national parks to see hundreds of thousands of "hard hoof" animals wandering around, considering the derision that sheep and cattle earn in Australia.


    The discussiion in Australia seems to be dominated by greenies and fringe "animal lovers eg PETA" without any real scientific basis.

    Regards Philip A

    block grazing

    I did try block grazing the dairy herd for a couple of years, but the rest of the planet didn't.

    Dairying on our families property ceased with the dry conditions that were brought on by the neighbouring widespread removal of tree's for the woodchip industry.

    The message is the same, remove ground cover and the evaporation rate exceeds the rain fall causing the new growth to fail.

    I found the subject a bit dry, but also interesting.

    I dont know how it would go with salinity but sounds like good therory.

    However australia never had large numbers of hoof herding animals to start with?

    is this why australia is like it is with large barron areas.

    Has anybody read Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn?

    Law of Limited Competition.

    Until we realise the concept of Totalitarian Agriculture as a species, we're all doomed.

    I don't hold out much hope.

    If we do nothing or we do everything, as individuals in our species we are individually doomed. That's life.

    Secondly as the Earth's passage around the Sun slows our orbit decays and we move closer to the Sun at the same time as the Sun matures from a yellow dwarf to a red giant and our species is still doomed.

    Damned if we do damned if we don't.

    Now personally I joined Stephen Colbert's PETOP*, the mortal enemy of PETA so I consume as much animal protein as my short (non-ruminant) gut can handle.

    * People for the Ethical Treatment Of Produce. (PETOP)

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
