Summary in the original language of the document
In this video, Clara Bosch presents holistic grazing as a climate-smart farming and regenerative farming practice at La Junquera farm, as a part of the EU's Climate Farm Demo project. The farm, located in a semi-arid region, has around 100 cows. They act like a motor to transform dry biomass into organic carbon, enriching the soil with nutrients and microorganisms. The key to holistic grazing is high-density grazing, where cows are then frequently moved across different farm parcels, utilizing all available biomass and enhancing soil fertility.
