    Only 4,625 views...too bad. This video/talk covers some things not really covered quite in others I've seen, and some more in depth, and just all around a really great one as to why we need H.M.G. as opposed to plain rotational grazings plans or even all these other variants. Why it matter to at least really, truly know & understand these differences, evn for those of us who live in humid climates where the damage is slower & less obvious. Thank You Allan. As a former dairy farmer w my family here in hilly western WI, I am SOOOOO in love with this knowledge & it means so much to me. I can't even comprehend how much it must mean to someone in a desertified land or britttle enviroment. Thanks, thanks !
  • True learning is understanding when you’ve made a mistake in your original theory and revised it.18:00-20:00 Thank you, Sir, for your work

    Best talk thatI have seen from him, maybe only the Ted talk can compare. Also the Ted talk is needed to understand where he is coming from.

    Nature has been doing it for millions of years,we have to learn from her and restore the natural world/soil.

    How can anyone question him or call him out on his ignorance. It was his ignorance that brought him to cull 40,000 elephants and his life's work has been to correct that mistake. It's not a theory, he has applied his research and produced physical results globally. When technology fails isn't the best option to mimic nature?! The man should have the Nobel prize!
  • He mostly dodged the vegan question, but I think what he has achieved in his work clearly shows that humans and livestock have an important relationship, and the plant diet thing comprises many different layers of quackery pushed by the different plant diet promulgators, eg plant diet athletes, vegan climate activists, vegan animal rights lovers, vegan greenies, etc.
  • We have Allan Savory with his many decades of knowledge, we get Greta Thunberg.

    I’d like to know Allan’s thoughts on a news story that I heard today (16/8/18) apparently Zimbabwe is in need of food aid, I’m not being deliberately vague, I only caught part of the story. I’m pretty sure this is a first for Zimbabwe and I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that the successful and efficient farmers of generations and generations have been forcefully removed from their farms in a bid to “give the land back” to “the people”

    Send refreshments were going to a dance 😂🤘
  • Am I the only person that found all of this completely vague?? Einstein said if you fully understand something you can explain it to anyone in the most simplistic form. I'm not ignorant on hollistic management, but I found the lack of explanation from this lecture to leave me wanting a lot more clarification. Speak plainly, please.
  • What makes Humans possibly think they can digest vegan . With out zinc from meat 🍖 the human stomach cannot metabolise zinc or any other vitamin or mineral a zinc from any food .. Making the human digestive systems completely dependent on zinc from meat to start perpetual digestive prosess with the human amazingly limited digestive system . Herbivores on the other hand have six SEPERAT stomachs for digestion vegetables ..! There you have it in a nutshell the human metabolism is designed for meat only like the wild dogs and the wolves predators to the herds ..!
  • We must do somethink!!! Stop speak just do somethink!!! But how?
