 The the concept that there are microbes in the soil that symbiotically get along with microbes in a cow's gut How that works, I don't know but it sure seems to work and if you put Well, a sheep's got a rumen too So you you put either one of them out in a pasture or in a crop field and you allow them to to recycle the the material and feed it back to the microbes in the soil and The benefits are astronomical Well, we have we have proof of that. Yeah Couple years ago After I'd listened to Gabe Brown speak I said I'm going to try what he did and see if he knows what he's talking about So we took a 45 acre field and we We took it out of crop production and we planted to a cover crop and And grazed it twice that year. Yep, and then the next spring We weren't sure what we were going to do yet The next spring the sweet clover came back and before we knew it. It was shoulder tall So well now we know what we're going to do here and we grazed it down again for that year and the following year We well when we grow corn we do we do it with a strip tiller. We we put the 30 inch rows and we put the fertilizer eight inches in the ground So Eli ran some tests all the way across that field where One strip was zero fertilizer the next strip was half fertilizer fertilizer was NPK or just one all three all three together. Yeah, so we had What we considered the right blend to grow 175 bushel corn so that was our top amount we put on and we did half of that and none at all and When we harvested it we were surprised to find out that where we put on a half rate of fertilizer We maxed out our yield so The two years of cover crop Had really released a lot of nutrients back to the soil But the the zero rate still went up about 150 160 So you raised a hundred fifty to a hundred and sixty bushels of corn on zero in zero p zero k correct Yes, I Think that's that's really important my brother and I have always treated the Opening day of pheasant season as a national holiday and there was a time there when We couldn't find very many pheasants anymore And so we started making an effort right now in South Dakota. We're supposed to have one of the lowest pheasant numbers ever It's not true on our land
