What they cover
Gabe Brown is the author of 'Dirt to Soil' and a regenerative rancher from Bismarck, North Dakota. His talks and videos document the transformation of his 5,000-acre ranch from conventional to regenerative over 20 years. Content covers the five principles of soil health: no tillage, living roots year-round, diversity, armor on the soil surface, and animal integration. He speaks at agriculture conferences worldwide.
Why they matter
Brown's ranch is the single most cited example of large-scale regenerative transition in the United States. His soil organic matter increased from 1.7% to 6.1% over 20 years, representing massive carbon sequestration. His input costs dropped by over 75% while profitability increased. His speaking and writing have directly influenced thousands of ranchers and farmers to begin their own transitions. 'Dirt to Soil' is the most accessible introduction to regenerative agriculture in print.
