Event Details
Work with your landscape to boost productivity
Natural Sequence Farming (NSF) is a landscape management method that rehabilitates, regenerates and rehydrates landscapes for increased productivity. Through the Natural Sequence Farming approach you will "read" the landscape in whole new ways, increasing your understanding of how the landscape functions by observing the patterns and processes in whole new ways.
The key principles of this method created by legendary Australian farmer Peter Andrews are:
- Slow the flow
- Let all plants grow
- Careful where the animals go
- Filtration is a must know
- Recycle the lot, return to the top
This Field Day will be delivered by Stuart Andrews, son of Peter the creator of NSF, and is hosted by Daniel Lore and Rachael Treasure at Ripple Fram near Richmond. Since 2012 Stuart and the team from Tarwyn Park Training have been educating farmers around Australia in this revolutionary landscape regeneration and farm productivity approach.
The NSF method can be applied to any farming operation and is especially beneficial in rehabilitating degraded land.
Please bring chairs, hat, outdoor clothes suited to the day and something to eat for lunch. We will provide morning tea.
Things you'll learn:
- An introduction into what Natural Sequence Farming is all about
- An overview of our five pillars to Natural Sequence Farming and some tips into how you can start implementing them on your landscape
- A paddock walk to start learning about landscape function
