Related to the Black Locust.

Flowers are almost exactly the same. Nitrogen fixer for sure.

I think there are some of those here too

Yup. Black Locust.

The most useful tree ever.

Search it and you’ll start propagating the crap out of it.

What part of the world are you in?

Japan

I had no idea BL was there. It has a natural fungicide in the wood so it makes 50-100 year fence posts.

Also, the wood has the same caloric value as anthracite coal. It doesn’t smell all that great on a burn but it’ll heat the shit outta your house if ya got a wood burning stove.

And how do you know so much about it?

I read a lot and listen to a shit ton of regenerative agriculture podcasts.

Nunya shares good agriculture books too!

Side comment: I only now noticed your name 😂

😂 its a good one!

Can’t believe how long it took me to notice

Any recommendations for regenerative agriculture podcasts? I listened to the White Oak Pastures guy on Joe Rogan and it was very interesting.

There’s a podcast on bitcoin & regenerative agriculture…let me see if I can find it.

Bitcoin, gaming, permaculture, podcasting and education. I might be off a bit. I’m just a radiologist :)

Right on 👌

John Kempf and the team at advancing eco agriculture have tremendous insights. He hosts the regenerative agriculture podcast.

Ty

I’ve listened to his entire library. He hasn’t released one in a while, though.

I recently listened to Meat Mafia podcast interview Counter Culture Farms’ Austin Dillon about the science of regenerative ranching pretty good listen:

This one was very interesting and deep even, talking about life and death.

I do some regen ag stuff but search for John Kempf and #[4]​.

I’m heading to Japan in May, got any tips or things I should know?

Umm regarding what?

Japan?

Haha I mean, anything specific you want to know about?

Oh shoot, terribly sorry for being vague. More cultural highlights of thing to see, that tourists wouldn’t normally visit

By the way, those flowers are not only edible but delicious! try 'em.

The leaves make good fodder for animals. It can’t be the only thing they eat but a good supplement. Really high protein.
