Summary
In this episode, we take a step away from the scientific literature to ask a regen ag practitioner about their experiences and glean some interesting observations for future study. Jason Snavely, wildlife biologist and founder of Drop-Tine Wildlife Consulting, joins us to dive deep into the microbiology of soil health, trade-offs between conventional and regenerative practices, and how biomimicking nature could help us reach our objectives.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Wild Turkey Science, a podcast made possible by Turkeys for Tomorrow. |
| 0:14.0 | I'm Dr. Marcus Lashley, Professor of Wildlife Ecology at the University of Florida. And I'm Dr. Will Gulsby, Professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management at Auburn University. |
| 0:26.2 | We're both lifelong hunters and devoted scientists who are passionate about hunting, |
| 0:30.9 | managing, and researching wild turkeys. |
| 0:33.6 | In this podcast, we'll explore turkey research, speak to the experts in the field, |
| 0:38.7 | and address the difficult questions related to wild turkey ecology and management. |
| 0:43.6 | Our goal is to serve as your connection to wild turkey science. |
| 0:59.9 | Hold on. Let me move my sticky note off the screen so I can see you guys. |
| 1:04.3 | Let's do account on how many times I swat at bugs. |
| 1:10.7 | Yeah. Marcus, I feel like we always say at the start of an episode, this is going to be a good one. |
| 1:18.6 | But I think it's because we enjoy this so much and everything we talk about is inherently stuff that we enjoy. |
| 1:23.4 | And we're here today with Jason Snavely from Drop Time Consulting. |
| 1:27.9 | I think Jason, you have a podcast, by the same name or similar name. |
| 1:45.4 | Yes, sir. Drop Time podcast. Yeah. And we want to continue this conversation that we started recently with Dr. Bronson Strickland from Mississippi State about regenerative ag. And, you know, the three of us have been talking a little bit offline before we got this thing rolling. And I think there's going to be some really interesting discussion today. |
| 1:50.9 | And I know, Marcus, based on some of the feedback that we got, there were a lot of listeners that felt like our first conversation around Regenag maybe fell a little bit shorter. |
| 1:56.7 | We didn't get to everything that we should have discussed. |
| 1:59.2 | Yeah, I got that impression. based on several comments through various mechanisms. |
| 2:09.1 | I got the impression that people thought we were, I don't know, negative towards regenerative |
| 2:16.4 | of agriculture, not dismissive, but, you know, that |
| 2:20.7 | maybe skepticism. They were, they were hearing skepticism. I think maybe they sensed our, |
| 2:26.9 | are ineptitude when it came to discussing the topic. Yeah. Well, I think some of that was warranted and some of it may be |
| 2:39.1 | misplaced. I'd have since gone through a lot of literature on this topic and tried to, |
