Cathedral 3 | Rhythm

from Bitcoin And | Bitcoin & Economic News Hosted by David Bennett | Bitcoin & Economic News

Today’s replay continues the Cathedral series with grazing lanes, rotational grazing, leader-follower livestock systems, chickens behind cattle, soil carbon, water retention, tree fodder, and the strange but useful geometry of a thousand-year land project. This one connects Bitcoin to long time horizons, better money, food production, and the practical systems that keep civilization alive. Topics for today: Why Cathedral’s grazing lanes are 150 feet wide Grazing lanes, alley cropping, and flexible land use The 640-acre grazing model inside a 1,000-acre system Rotational grazing, bison patterns, and pasture recovery Why set stocking damages soil and forage diversity Chickens behind cattle as pest control and fertilizer Breaking the fly cycle with leader-follower grazing Soil carbon, water storage, and deeper root systems Sacred geometry, movement, and Cathedral’s square layout Black locust leaf fodder and honey locust pod feed Daily labor flow for moving cattle and chickens Get Your Free Comfrey Owner's Manual Here: https://www.bitcoinandshow.com/the-comfrey-owners-manual-is-here/ Help a Brother Out With 5 Star Reviews: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bitcoin-and-bitcoin-economic-news/id1438789088 Spotify Podcasts: https://open.spotify.com/show/1dsTluNHIPNsXVRghpqxhY Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9ef7d5b6-9137-439d-94eb-8071ec6bf890/bitcoin-and-bitcoin-economic-news YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWaKxaQF5Q5WiTq80SBYs_7iLDtleV0rZ Find the Bitcoin And Podcast on every podcast app here: https://episodes.fm/1438789088 Find me on nostr npub1vwymuey3u7mf860ndrkw3r7dz30s0srg6tqmhtjzg7umtm6rn5eq2qzugd (npub) 6389be6491e7b693e9f368ece88fcd145f07c068d2c1bbae4247b9b5ef439d32 (Hex) Twitter: https://twitter.com/DavidB84567 StackerNews: stacker.news/NunyaBidness Podcasting 2.0: fountain.fm/show/eK5XaSb3UaLRavU3lYrI Apple Podcasts: tinyurl.com/unm35bjh Mastodon: https://noauthority.social/@NunyaBidness Support Bitcoin And . . . on Patreon: patreon.com/BitcoinAndPodcast Find Lightning Network Channel partners here: https://t.me/+bj-7w_ePsANlOGEx (Nodestrich) https://t.me/plebnet (Plebnet) Music by: Flutey Funk Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
