Benefits of raising ducks on a regenerative farm:
1. Pest control
Ducks are natural foragers and will control population levels of slugs, snails and insects
Pest patrol > pesticide

2. Soil fertility
Duck droppings are rich in nutrients, especially nitrogen. This enhances soil fertility and promotes healthier crops
Duck poop > synthetic fertilizer

3. Weed management
Ducks graze on young weeds and help provide natural weed control which reduces competition for crops
Weed patrol > herbicide
🦆
4. Biodiversity enhancement
Integrating ducks into a farm increases biodiversity which helps create more resilient pond ecosystems

5. Meat and egg production
Ducks offer a sustainable source of meat and eggs which nourish our family and generate income for the farm

6. Aesthetic value
Ducks add charm and beauty to a farm and offer opportunities for unique farm education and visitor experiences
