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\\xa0
  • 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
