- "I have been following your study for around a year now and then finally took the time to rent the series. I was very pleased with it. As a land and livestock manager I have started implementing a few of the practices around two years ago but just started with the grazing this past summer. I used this series with my guys that work with me as a way to help explain the reasons behind what we are doing as well as a way to spark interest in AMP grazing. I was pleased with the response that I got from the team. We would watch an episode a day and then have open discussion about what we watched and the direction that we are headed ourselves. Thank you for your service to agriculture and conservation through this study. Brent McCoy"

It is a USDA Climate Smart Grant. I would like to speak to Peter on how AMP grazing could be applied to our 40k acre project, then ultimately for 30 million acres of climate smart CRP. "

— Julie - USA - "Yesterday I received a notification from Roots So Deep that my rental time was expired. I was disappointed for two reasons. One, I wasn't notified this was imminent. Secondly, I have only been able to view 2 of the episodes. I have been very impressed with the material in the first 2 episodes. It would be beneficial for your future customers to receive a heads up if the viewing will expire. Thank you for your efforts. Christine"

— Christine - USA - "This was fantastic. I'm not a farmer but learning about this gave me hope this will snowball into real change. I wish I know how I could help more. Thank you for this documentary. If there is any suggestions to help get the word out let me know. God bless. Marci"

— Marci - USA - "I'm a permaculture farmer. No animals but same concept. Mimic nature. It was breaking my heart to see the look on Wallace's face. That dear, sweet man, while listening to Cooper for the first time in episode one. The look on his face, one of such deep hope yet clouded in skepticism. Brainwashed like so many others by chemical fertilizer companies and what have you for.... decades. Just makes me so angry. Couldn't have been more happy for him. For you having found him, finding them all. Their excitement when moving their cattle the first time. I hope they're all doing as well as I believe them to be."

— Chris - USA - "Thank you Peter and team for doing all this work and making the four documentaries. You are all real rock stars. It was joyous and beautiful. It was human, collaborative, respectful, and it was hopeful and inspiring. Thank you also to the farmers who let you into their lives and onto their farms. So brave of them. Whether conventional or AMF farmers, the fact that they allowed this to be filmed is inspiring as well. "

— Stephen - USA - "I have more thoughts: I've watched this series 4 times now, and I cry every time. I had no idea just how much burden I've carried through the years, feeling like modern humans were parasites on this earth: feeling bad about just being alive and doing my best to minimize my footprint with conserving resources and hoping to die before it all crumbles (I'm 68 right now). Regenerative Ag, AMP, learning that the cycle of life, the water cycles, carbon cycles, ecology... this has been so HEALING and invigorating. I cry in empathy, I cry in releasing so much despair. It's the difference between being motivated through fear versus being motivated through love. Thank you all for helping to put more love in motion. I have shared this documentary within my small social networks and I pray that it is seen worldwide to touch and motivate as many as possible. Thanks again."

— Marilee - USA - "Loved it! As someone that is on about year three of AMP grazing I can feel the energy and excitement from both the AMP grazers as well as the folks giving it a try for the first time. Every year I am eager to try a little more…. shrink the paddocks, increase stocking density, increase move frequency. I have always loved raising cattle, but never did I expect it to get me more focused on my soil than the cattle and I think this documentary perfectly incapsulates how that can become a passion. One of our main goals is to produce healthy beef for our family and the community. Expanding my knowledge of soil health has now bled into our garden as well. Big thank you to Peter and the team for the years of research, time and effort to produce this. A+ and I am recommending to anyone that will listen. "

— nathan - USA - "I love that the documentary showed the results and the scientific results. I wish we would have seen how more people started. There was indications that other farms saw the results in the neighboring farm and started doing the same. I would have loved to go on that journey with them and see what changes they made to their existing farm. I believe I have a general Idea of what they did but it would have been nice to see how they went about doing it. Or even get some link or something of where to go to see the information. I feel like we were told that we need to do it and here is a general of what it looks like but not really how to do it."

— Rana - USA - "I loved it! A group has put together a showing at the library in our little town in MT. I'm headed to sit on a panel with Nicole Masters as we watch the first episode with a new audience tomorrow night- I can't wait! Now you need to make one on crop farming... That's my expertise and conundrum. How to pull down carbon like that while growing dryland grains. We just bought some cattle for adaptive grazing on cover crops. I don't think it will be as much of a carbon sink as grasslands, but we do everything we can regeneratively. I hope it's good enough to help with climate change, too."

— Sadie - USA - "I knew there was a reason the woods stayed green and flourished while the fields dried up and seemed to scream for water. Roots So Deep puts it all into perspective. The ground is covered. Not watered except for rain, but covered. Oh to learn how to apply this all on a much smaller scale and where do I start. And I WILL start. Thank you for your study and this film...and ALL the videos that encourage the little person to take the next best step. "

— Louis - Japan - "better food quality based how AMP grazing, better habitat. want all my farmer family and farmer friends to know about the science that will save them money and improve and increase outcome. thank you to all the diverse fields of study in one place. will be re-watching the films to learn more and retain. wondering if you are doing anything in northwestern Illinois or northwest areas of Oklahoma... very different topographically from each other. Will watch for more in the future,,,, like the carbon cowboys facebook page... those little snips are easy to share. I wish the scientific teams much success with the research. If you ever have an event in south east michigan, would like to know about, not a farmer, just interested... Michigan State is not to far away....unfortunately, age and limit income prevent me from contributing $$$ to your venture, however, i will gladly promote it via FB."

— Sandra - USA - "I rented it a second time with the expectation that I'd find the time to watch it again and was unable to. But I love what you guys are doing and would happily rent it again just to support the cause. That being said, if you ever sell the video series I'd rather purchase it outright."

— Gabriel - USA - "Loved it. Love all of you guys who made the movie and did the science -- and the farmers who participated. What about those gorgeous southern accents! I used the subtitles a lot. :) It was pretty miraculous that you got such a great scientific team together, Peter. And I'm super pleased that you used money from corporations. I think we should stop thinking of them as evil. They're not evil -- just doing what they do best: making money. If we can show them a more earth-friendly way of making even more money, they'll be all over it. Besides allowing them to tick their positive impact boxes. Looking forward to getting news of a new series on grasslands in the northern states. Congratulations everyone."

— Joanna - USA - "Absolutely fantastic to see science backing up knowledge from our grand farthers before the industrial era. I've thought for many years the model is broken becoming more of a casino handing money to industrial companies. Research only done to push products for there profits. I can't say how much I enjoyed watching the journey of yourselves and the families involved from one X organic dairy farming from England United Kingdom. I wish I could get involved as it really gets me going. Kind regards Andrew Williamson "

— Samuel - USA - "I've been practicing the amp grazing in Oklahoma for a couple years now and seen improvements but was interested about how your team was able to collect real data to show the measurable differences. Since watching the documentary I have been looking at things I never paid attention to like birds and insects. I have been hearing quail sing in the evening now."

— Peter - South Africa - "Excellent film! Fantastic stories of the people within. Amazing to see how all of the science that the team conducted relatively pointed to AMP improving every facet of life, from the environment to the economics. I do not come from a farming background but I started hearing about the film on YouTube and became interested in watching the full documentary, and I am very glad I did. I hope the team keeps up the good work, continues to increase the knowledge on the topic and spreading it as well. I know I will be spreading the word about this film as well. Thanks to the people that made it happen!"

— Greg - USA - "I was first introduced to your work via carbon cowboys as so many were - that inspired me to move out of the city and start gardening more, and studying permaculture, animal science, amp grazing and the like - its so inspiring what you did with this film, particularly because we were able to see the conventional farmers show an open mind to the data, and to implementing new farming practices. There truly is hope left for the farmers of the world - in improving the quality of their land, their life, and the world. It seems impossible - but the data shows its a possibility. Thank you, again. I look forward to your next project. "

— Blaine - USA - "Really good to see real data. Proof! We have been doing AMP for about 9 years but not condensed on cattle numbers. More like 80 head on 20 acres 5-6 days. However we are going to start changing and adapting to more head and daily moving. What really excites me is the ecological benefits, less spending and more head on same acreage… that is huge!! We are a registered black angus seed stock operation, so it will really allow us more growth. Look us up, maybe you would like to visit us. We are rt at 1,500 acres now. "

— Adam - Australia - "So well done! Keep the research coming. It is such a struggle to try and convince our universities what we need to do. The corporate narrative is strongly engrained unfortunately. I have been working with farmers in regenerative ag practices for over 10 years now, and we need more videos like these to show to the public. If you would ever like to work with grazers in Minnesota, please let me know. I have a great list of farmers working turning their farms around because we have hosted presenters in our area like Ray Archuleta, Gabe Brown, Dr. Elaine Ingham, Dr. David Johnson, Alejandro Carrillo and more. Thank you for your dedication and excellent work!"

It gives me a headache sometimes trying to figure out how I want to make change. This series has opened my eyes to the possibility of working to promote AMP grazing. I cannot wait to see more of Peter's work and learn more!"
