Portugal is Turning into a Desert – Can This Farming Method Save It?

Portugal is slowly turning into a desert. But is the real issue a lack of water—or poor water management? Lars and Denise are using a powerful technique to restore the land and prevent desertification. This technique can be applied anywhere in the world—not just in Portugal or dry regions. By using this method, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of farming and how to work with nature instead of against it. In this short documentary, Lars—who has spent years working with nature—explains the basics of his approach, inspired by syntropic farming. Want to learn more? Together with Lars and Denise, I (Sara) have created step-by-step videos to teach this method.
