This time I interviewed Peter Donovan, who has been active in the space since he met Allan Savory in 1990!
Take-aways from the interview:
- Measurements of carbon is difficult
- Peter: Soil carbon the living the dead and the very dead
- The best kind of measurement is one that is repeated and is looking at agency
- Peter is looking more and more at results not management, as everyone is doing them differently
- Good questions vs bad questions
- Organic growth and succession of management
- Future of agriculture means more people on the land
- Focus metrics on water because the benefits are local
