Priming Your Seeds for Success with Mark Tupman

In this Talkin' After Hours Podcast Jo and Kate talk to Mark Tupman from Productive Ecology.  For over two decades Mark has been active in the fields of organic/biodynamic production, permaculture, sustainability, agro-ecology and holistic management and in between times managed an orchard, animals and food gardens on his own property. Recently Mark has been working with the LCDC as a project consultant on a couple of Lower Blackwood projects - Regenerative Agriculture in Practice & Pasture Biodiversity to Build Soil Health & Resilience Today's conversation is going to zero in on what some say is possibly the single most important thing you can do to set seeds up for germination and early growth success – that is coating seeds with biostimulants prior to seeding them in the paddock. With a lot of farmers now planning their autumn seeding it's a pretty timely topic! This podcast forms part of the Lower Blackwood LCDC's Project 'Pasture Biodiversity to Build Soil Health & Resilience in the Lower Blackwood'. The project received funding from the Australian Government's Future Drought Fund.
