Released May 29, 2023
From the show notes: “Moritz Passmann manages Crescentwood Farm alongside his wife and in-laws near Russell, Manitoba. Moritz shares the practices they have implemented that support soil health and all the critters above and below the ground. Not only have these changes made farming more interesting, it has reduced stress for him and his family, improved soil quality, and their land’s productivity. Together they have improved yields and their net profit per acre by changing some of their cropping practices over the years.
A few methods that are making a big differences:
✨Reducing tillage
✨Seeding different cash crops with mixtures of warm season grasses, cool season grasses, and legumes
✨Reducing inputs
✨Adding compost tea and worm castings into their cover crop seed mix.”
