Giant Gippsland Earthworms under Regenerative Grazing Management

This video discusses the experiences of a regenerative organic farmer, Burke Brandon, who has observed the presence of earthworms on his 200-acre farm in South Gippsland, Australia. Burke explains that the earthworms are typically found in specific areas of the farm, such as the bottom of steep hills and well-drained areas, and that their presence is an indicator of soil health and moisture retention. The farm has adapted its' grazing management to protect the earthworm colonies, using practices such as skipping the grazing of certain paddocks or using temporary electric fencing. Burke emphasises that the regenerative grazing approach, which minimises soil disturbance, is well-suited for supporting the earthworm populations on the farm.
