Alejandro Carrillo - Regenerative Ranching in the Desert - Part 2

Alejandro Carrillo is a regenerative rancher who is widely respected for his achievements in restoring his ranch in the Chihuahuan Desert, using grazing management techniques. In this workshop, Alejandro shared his story of how he uses regenerative and holistic practices to improve the condition and production of his ranch in Mexico, and how we can apply these lessons in Australian landscapes. He describes the principles of his practices, which can be adapted and applied in any context. This workshop provided livestock farmers with tools to manage pastures to maintain plant and soil health that builds resilience to drought. It is part of the Perennial Pastures for Drought Defence Project which provides support tools for pasture selection, establishment and grazing management for drought resilience in low and medium rainfall areas. We welcome anyone to join this project. We thank Alejandro for sharing his knowledge with us. And for his generosity in allowing us to record and share this video to the public.
