Today, I'm taking you to Samehaling, the Van Schalkwyk family's 100,000-acre farm on the edge of the Kalahari in southern Africa. In this documentary, Peter Van Schalkwyk shares the five pillars that have made his farm profitable through 130 years of regenerative land management.
These are the same principles that carried Samehaling through the worst drought in Namibian history and into an extraordinary season of recovery and abundance. At the heart of Peter's philosophy is a simple idea: a stockman's greatest asset is not the money in his bank account, but the forage beneath his feet.
Whether you farm in a desert, on rolling pasture, or anywhere in between, these principles have broad application. By demonstrating how profitable livestock production is possible in one of the world's harshest grazing environments, Peter offers lessons that could help shape the future of regenerative land management around the globe. The documentary also explores the challenges facing Namibian family farms today.
As commercial farms are increasingly divided under government land reform programs, Peter argues that the long-term future of agriculture depends not only on policy, but on the stewardship of the land itself.
