Eric Harvey’s New Trial With Pasture Cropping!

You have seen Eric’s results with composting but now Eric Harvey has
set himself a new challenge by trialling the growing of

grain, directly sown into native grasslands, without the application

of fertilisers or herbicides, and without tilling.

We recently visited  Eric’s farm and filmed him

out in the paddock to learn more about 

his farming systems and to show you his results.

Next week we will be filming him at the Stipa conference where

he will be presenting his results in detail.

Eric  will  be featured in a future “Walk the Talk”.
