Cathedral 4 | Life Raft
from Bitcoin And | Bitcoin & Economic News Hosted by David Bennett | Bitcoin & Economic News
Bitcoin analysis and economics of bitcoin update. Today’s replay continues the Cathedral series with the Life Raft system, a moving silvopasture model built around cattle, chickens, biochar, compost tea, cover crops, soil carbon, and the long-term land management that better money makes easier to imagine. Topics for today: Cathedral Part 4 and the Life Raft idea Silvopasture as an oak savanna mimic Grazing lanes, tree lanes, and ruminant movement Why soil health matters more than food output alone Cattle as microbial amplifiers for living soil Chickens, manure, fly control, and nitrogen cycling Biochar, adsorption, water storage, and carbon Compost tea, seed mixes, and cover crop timing Multiple Life Rafts moving through the same system John Kempf and the take half, leave half fallacy Forbs, root exudates, and long-term soil carbon 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/
