Learn Regenerative farming that works...no sprays,chemicals..natures way

What happens here

During winter months, when fresh grass is less abundant, continue the regenerative process by distributing hay bales across the pastures. The video shows a farmer using an ATV and a hay bale unroller to spread hay. This provides essential feed for the cattle while simultaneously adding carbon and biomass to the soil, improving its structure and fertility for the next growing season. This practice is particularly beneficial for retaining soil moisture and feeding beneficial soil organisms.

Goal: Feed cattle during winter and enrich soil with carbon and biomass.

Tools and materials

  • ATV — Towing the hay bale unroller
  • Hay Bale Unroller — Mechanically unrolling hay bales for even distribution
  • Hay Bales — Cattle feed and soil amendment
