How One Young Rancher Started (and Grew) His Regenerative Operation
"As I focus on a very low-input system, I don’t use commercial fertility with what I plant, and I don’t worry about the broadleaf weeds that come up when my pastures are resting. Much of my livestock use the broadleaves as a source for minerals and, as a result, eliminated the need for chemical inputs entirely. Some of my favorite broadleaves, like sunflowers and giant ragweed, provide a much-needed energy source for my livestock in the fall while grasses are going dormant."

Wind and solar aren’t the enemy in Texas. Neither is natural gas.
"It seems everyone but our state legislators understand that renewable energy and fossil fuels don't have to be mutually exclusive.
