#125 Chad Ellis "Conservation Easements: A Pathway to Sustainable Agriculture?"

Welcome to another episode of Ranching Reboot, your favorite regenerative ag podcast! This week, we welcome Chad Ellis from the Texas Agricultural Land Trust. Chad discusses the importance of conservation easements, land trusts, and alternative ecosystem service markets in creating a sustainable future for agriculture. We discuss the key role of landowners in mitigating the climate crisis and promoting sustainable food systems. Chad provides a deep dive into his experience working with the Texas Agricultural Land Trust, the challenges and rewards of working in land stewardship, and the complex relationship between agriculture and the environment. We explore the future of the food industry, discussing the potential for grass-fed beef to be a byproduct of the carbon sequestration industry and how consumers can make more educated choices about their food. This episode offers key insights into land management, sustainable farming practices, and the importance of understanding the broader ecosystem in which we operate. Join us as we reboot our thinking about farming, ranching, food systems, and the people that operate them. ⁠Connect with Chad on Linkedin⁠ ⁠Texas Agricultural Land Trust⁠ ------------------------------------- ⁠⁠⁠Grassroots Carbon! ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Get Magic Mind!
