Description

Feed costs don’t have to break the bank. In this episode of Ancient Organic, Phoenix and Bella explore how farmers can slash livestock feeding expenses using on-farm superfoods like Azolla, Duckweed, Napier, banana stem, and kitchen waste. Backed by real data and practical strategies, they discuss:

• How Azolla delivers 25–30% protein with near-zero input

• Why Duckweed can double its mass every 36 hours

• How farmers are saving up to 80% in pig and fish feed

• Tips to grow, manage, and rotate feed sources sustainably


If you’re ready to ditch commercial feed bags and grow your own nutrition, this episode is your blueprint for regenerative feeding.
