Our guest this week is Louis De Jaeger, a landscape designer, author and filmmaker who believes that many of agriculture’s biggest problems start with poor soil. In this episode, he and Ferg explore soil as a living system. One that can reduce costs, improve resilience, and produce more nutrient-dense food when managed well. They talk about building long-term fertility without synthetic fertilisers, how some farmers are fighting drought and climate change, and the link between soil microbes and human gut health. If you’re curious about regenerative agriculture, sustainable food systems or how farming can work better with nature, this one’s worth a listen. https://louisdj.com/en/home-2 Head Shepherd is brought to you by neXtgen Agri International Limited .
