reduce your carbon footprint with the hoofprints of an eco-bullock

Kachana Station is committed to restoring rangeland rehydration to foster sustainable production and vibrant, healthy ecosystems for generations to come. Join us today in this important mission: purchase a Kachana Eco-Bullock!

With a one-time purchase price of AU$1,500, you become the proud owner of a Kachana Eco-Bullock. We send you an ownership certificate confirming your participation in our work.

Investing in an Eco-Bullock allows him to spend the rest of his life in a working herd providing the sort of environmental services that his wild ancestors would have performed prior to their domestication.

Your Eco-Bullock plays an integral part in a herd that transforms barren land into productive landscapes. These cattle enrich the soil, while seeds carried in their dung find optimal growing conditions. Their hooves create mulch to cover the surface and will chip compacted soil, allowing water to penetrate more easily.

As the herd moves, dung beetles follow, utilising the moisture from the dung to burrow into even the toughest soil, enhancing aeration and promoting deeper water infiltration. This process encourages abundant vegetation, which eventually turns soils into sponges that capture more rainfall. Healthy grasslands not only replenish groundwater reserves but also, through their roots, sequester carbon from the atmosphere, enriching the earth.

By purchasing an Eco-Bullock, you contribute to positive ecological foot-prints as you participate in the restoration of natural wealth for future generations.

If you are interested in purchasing an Eco-Bullock, please use the link below to reach out to us via email. We will be happy to provide you with an invoice for your convenience. Thank you for your support!

To date we have only been testing the waters for this project. In time we hope to encourage research to establish just how much such an Eco-Bullock could contribute to environmental services each year.

It is so easy to ignore the fact that in seasonally dry landscapes large herbivores and herds do what trees and forests achieve in temperate humid landscapes. Instead of going back in time with our thinking, we could be moving forward into a world of abundance where nature’s wealth-building processes are being reactivated! There certainly is no shortage of arid landscapes that could be revitalised in line with nature’s templates.
