'We are looking at the land and asking it what we should grow, rather than asking the land to grow what we want.' " - Dax Hansen, owner of Oatman Flats Ranch.By Samuel Gilbert May 12, 2025Excerpt: "Regeneration Rooted in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Indigenous</a> Practices"Southern Arizona’s rich agricultural history stretches back more than 5,000 years. By 600 CE, the Hohokam people were constructing North America’s largest and most elaborate irrigation systems along the Salt and Gila Rivers. The descendants of the Hohokam—the Pima and Tohono O’odham—continued to farm the land up to and after the arrival of the Spanish, who began to colonize southern Arizona in the 1600s. They continue to farm in Arizona today."At the Tohono O’odham Indian Reservation, about two hours southeast of Oatman Flats, the San Xavier Co-op Farm uses historic land management practices and grows traditional crops that reflect their respect for the land, plants, animals, elders, and the sacredness of water."San Xavier Farm Manager Duran Andrews and his team plant <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CoverCrops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CoverCrops</a>, rotate fields, and collect <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/rainwater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#rainwater</a>. " '[Regenerative agriculture] is nothing new to us,' Andrews said. 'We have been doing this for decades. Harmony between nature and people has been our approach all the time.' Rotating fields and cultivating multiple mutually beneficial species in the same fields improves water and soil quality and biodiversity in this harsh landscape." 'You’ve seen what the land looks like in five years; imagine it in 10. If we can do it here, we can do it anywhere.'"The co-op grows a variety of native crops that were developed in the region and cultivated for centuries or, in some cases, millennia, such as grains and beans, which they sell online. 'We irrigate them till they sprout, then cut them off till the monsoon shows up,' Andrews said. 'We try to keep crops in that hardy state through all the years and decades they have been here. We try not to get away from how things were done in the past.'"They also grow White Sonora wheat, introduced to Arizona by Spanish Jesuit missionaries in the 1600s. 'It was a gift from Father Kino that we have taken as our own,' Andrews said. 'The [San Xavier] community was one of the first to grow this wheat.'"Following the Mexican-American War in the mid-1800s, the United States claimed parts of modern-day Arizona, New Mexico, California, Nevada, and Utah. The Anglo ranchers who moved into the area dug canals to irrigate agricultural fields, transforming the landscape. An 1852 watercolor by surveyor Jon Russell Bartlett depicts a verdant valley with cottonwoods and mesquite trees lining a flowing Gila River as it passes through Oatman Flats Ranch."That landscape is unrecognizable today. The lower Gila has gone bone dry after years of upstream diversions, dams, water overuse, and climate change. In 2019, the Gila River earned the title of Most Endangered River by the nonprofit advocacy group American Rivers."Standing on the sandy Gila riverbed, which divides the north and south farms of Oatman Flats Ranch, Wang pointed to the nearby invasive salt cedars. Healing the land involves rebuilding the water, nutrient, and carbon cycles from the ground up, 'at the micro level,' he said. 'On the macro level, it’s broken.'"The ranch team has poured resources into rebuilding soil health by planting <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hedgerows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hedgerows</a> and 30-plus species of cover crops, at a cost of approximately $100,000. The hedgerows, mostly native trees, were planted along the edges of the fields to reduce erosion and provide habitat for beneficial species, including <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pollinators</a> such as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bees</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hummingbirds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hummingbirds</a>."The cover crops — <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/millet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#millet</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/chickpeas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#chickpeas</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sunflowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sunflowers</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sorghum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sorghum</a>, sudan grass, broadleaves, and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeGrasses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NativeGrasses</a> among them—are planted immediately after harvesting wheat, to provide 'soil armor,' help conserve water, fix nitrogen in the soil, suppress weeds, attract beneficial insects, and sequester carbon. The once-barren land now supports life for more than 120 species of flora and fauna."Read more: <a href="https://civileats.com/2025/05/12/could-this-arizona-ranch-be-a-model-for-southwest-farmers/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://civileats.com/2025/05/12/could-this-arizona-ranch-be-a-model-for-southwest-farmers/</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SolarPunkSunday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SolarPunkSunday</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RegenerativeAgriculture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RegenerativeAgriculture</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RegenerativeFarming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RegenerativeFarming</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RestorativeAgriculture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RestorativeAgriculture</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChangeFarming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ClimateChangeFarming</a>

I mowed it a couple more times that year (higher cut) to try to knock the competition back while things germinated, and then left it be.'" 'I just had sparse grasses and wildflowers to start (nothing woody) before doing any of this, so the competition wasn’t too strong early on. It was reasonably successful the following year.'"Travis wasn’t entirely thrilled with wildflower establishment, though, so he repeated the process in late spring 2019 including 'another very light top-dressing of compost since the leach field soil is mostly just sandy fill.' The results that year were even more inspiring..."[2021 update] Travis wrote that after the establishment phase, he hasn’t done anything to keep the meadow on track (although I suspect he’ll have to mow now and then to keep woody plants out)."I’m so impressed by his success, which turns his septic field into habitat for pollinators and lots of other wildlife.
