Investing in Regenerative Agriculture
366 Austin Unruh - Silvopasture, planting trees on millions of acres of grassland, is the most scalable and profitable regen solution

Investing in Regenerative Agriculture

A conversation with Austin Unruh, founder of Trees for Graziers, about the investment case for silvopasture. What if we could plant hundreds of millions of trees on degraded, low-value pasture land and make money from it? What if we planted trees that are beneficial for livestock—ruminants, pigs, and poultry? The market for meat and animal products is fairly stable (unless we get a massive breakthrough in precision fermentation soon, but that's hard to predict). Trees can dramatically lower costs and increase production.Austin argues that this is the best entry point to get many more trees into the landscape. When chosen well, these trees provide shade (a basic need), but more importantly, they offer feed during the most difficult periods of the year—like high summer, or specific fruits that drop in the autumn, full of sugar and energy, just as cows prepare for the colder winter months. Especially with pasture-raised pigs and poultry, you can save massively on expensive (organic) feed, which is mostly grain. And as a bonus, pastures grow better with partial shade.More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/austin-unruh.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

His expertise in this field comes not only from advanced degrees and field and laboratory research, but also from experiencing indigenous agricultural systems firsthand and seeing how they offer valuable insights into sustainable, low-input food production systems.Episode Highlights:Rethinking Production Systems with Ecological SuccessionDiverse Background with Global RootsFree Choice Feeding & Ruminant EfficiencyRumen Microbiology & Soil ParallelsIndustrial vs. Regenerative Feeding ModelsAgroecological Inspirations from the AmazonThe Role of Animals in Regenerative AgTo learn more about Dr. Lascano and ruminant nutrition, check out the below links:Gustavo Lascano at Clemson UniversityFaculty ProfileSoil Health Lab Podcast ArchivesVisit WebsiteFeatured in the episode: Cotton, Country, Conservation (8-year regenerative agriculture study)

In this episode, Sawyer and Tork sit down with Travis and Torsten, the brains behind Livestock, Water, and Energy (LWE), to dive deep into a revolutionary approach to manure management on modern hog farms. If you've ever wondered about turning manure into profit, reducing hauling costs, recycling water, or making carbon credits actually work for farmers, this is the episode you've been waiting for.Over two years in the making, this conversation sheds light on the cutting-edge technology being implemented to separate manure in real time, transforming waste into dry, pathogen-free fertilizer, creating a new revenue stream with liquid nitrogen, and capturing valuable carbon credits—all without relying on government grants or tax credits. Sawyer and Tork share their own farm's experience as the test site for LWE's first agricultural system, revealing the nitty-gritty of what actually works, the value for everyday farmers, and why so many have failed at this before.Whether you're a livestock producer curious about the future of manure, a skeptic of the carbon credit market, or just interested in how innovation is changing the ag industry from the inside out, this lively and honest episode has you covered. Plus, hear about the challenges, breakthroughs, and the real-life impact on family farms looking to build a more sustainable and profitable future.So pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and let's get into it—because today, everything that happens in the barn is coming out into the open.Use code BARNTALK for 10% OFF your next orderhttps://farmergrade.com/ Learn More About Our New Project

We hear why Sarah is starting to get messages from people from "beyond the grave." We discuss animal sounds and how people around the world imitate animals through onomatopoeia, and why they're all different. We're mad about the ladies that went to space and acted like morons. We debate whether a man who got stolen casino chips should be able to cash them out. We get an update on the family who accidentally ended up with 52 octopuses, and it offers insight about the dangers of virality. We think aliens are stealing cows again and we don't understand why the town doesn't realize that's where their livestock went. Sarah thinks aliens also turn people into limestone though, so who knows. Plus, we learn what makes a good apology by analyzing the apologies on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

I wanted to bring you something a bit different today, but not too different, do not fear. I want to talk about the Dust Bowl and how it effected those living in that region as well as those outside of it as well. We also need to discuss what led to the catastrophe and we can't do that without talking about a few other issues as well, such as the Great Depression, because this was happening at the same time. When it rains, it pours, except this fun little saying can't apply literally (as I would like it to), because part of the creation of the Dust Bowl and the resulting dust storms that devastated the area and choked anything that breathed was drought. A devastating drought right at the start of an economic depression? Oh, and prohibiton was still in effect for some of this time as well, so if you just needed a drink to calm your nerves? It could be deadly because it was likely toxic wood alcohol. What were these dust storms like? We have eyewitness accounts and know the science a bit better these days behind how this happened and how it would have affected not just the landscape but those living there. Drought and depression brought malnutrition and hunger. Livestock wasted away and died either from hunger/thirst or the dust itself asphyxiating them. Whole families were affected as well. The dust could not be avoided in some areas, and those constantly in this environment often became ill with deadly dust pneumonia, debilitating and chronic lung illnesses and scarring of the lungs. Just how far did this go and how did humanity overcome it? Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!
