Richard Makim is a veteran farmer, inventor, researcher, and father of seven. He is one of the first in Australia to implement holistic grazing into his cattle operation. His years of experience managing cattle have led to his discovery of the true potential cows have in healing the landscape. More recently, he has found that the health of the landscape and the health of people are intertwined.
Cattle and ruminants are often labelled as a cause of environmental destruction, with farmers soon needing to account for the CO2 emissions they produce. However, by managing cattle correctly, the potential for restoration is substantially greater, with the ability to sequester far more carbon into the soil than they emit.
Richard offers a grounded perspective on the role cattle play in our lives and how we can transition to this next evolution of farming. Check him out at - https://richardmakim.wordpress.com/about/
