Outback innovation or just fancy goat herding? Farmers in WA built a 9km-long solar-powered smart fence trap on Murchison Station to quietly nab thousands of feral goats. Low-stress mustering via smartphone-closed gates, protects fragile landscapes from overgrazing, and the goats get sold for meat. Pays for itself in 5 years.
Feral goats are declared pests wrecking ecosystems, so this beats choppers + bikes for animal welfare + planet points. Nature's lawnmowers turned profit?

Nine-kilometre outback goat trap catching thousands and paying for itself

When their station's fragile landscape needed protection from feral goats, Calum and Belinda Carruth seized on an idea that has become marvel of technology and pest management.

@tickfoot This is sad news. Dr Elaine Ingham was the pioneer for soil science. The importance of the Soil Food Web can not be overstated. I have watched hours of her talks online over the last decade and learnt so much from her teaching.

RIP Dr Elaine. 💚 Thank you for opening my eyes to the wonders of the world below our feet. #SoilFoodWeb #SoilHealth #Compost #Soil #RegenerativeAg #Gardening

Food forests flip the script on farming. Instead of constant inputs, they build living systems that renew themselves—soil gets richer, water stays longer, and food keeps coming. Canopy trees are the long-term anchors of this abundance.

Raíces, ha estado explorando la resiliencia de los pequeños agricultores y las prácticas agrícolas tradicionales frente al cambio climático, el colonialismo y el capitalismo. Cuidemos las semillas de nuestros antepasados, hagamos crecer las ruinas de la civilización y cosechemos lo que sembramos. Esta foto capta sólo el inicio.

Raíces, has been exploring resilience of small holders and traditional farming practices in the face to climate change, colonialism and capitalism. Let’s tend the seeds of our ancestors, overgrow the ruins of civilisation and reap what we sow. This photo captures only the beginning.

Capturando los terribles impactos de las plantaciones de plátano en las tierras altas de Puerto Rico. Los monocultivos de plátanos han llegado a simbolizar la agricultura colonial en la isla, erosionando el suelo, las comunidades y los medios de vida.

Capturing the terrible impacts of banana plantations in the highlands of Puerto Rico. Monocultures of Bananas have come to symbolise colonial agriculture on the island, eroding soil, communities and livelihoods.
