Free-range black Berkshire pigs graze contentedly across a lush pasture in central Victoria's rolling agricultural landscape. A farmer in a vibrant purple jacket and blue cap monitors the herd, standing amid the verdant grasslands near Heathcote, surrounded by scattered eucalyptus trees and distant rocky hillsides. The pigs - muscular, dark-coated, and alert - spread across the grassland, some clustered near a mobile white shelter, others rooting through the long green grass with focused intent. This scene exemplifies regenerative farming practices, where livestock are allowed natural movement and grazing behaviors, promoting soil health and animal welfare. The soft overcast sky and open terrain suggest early morning or late afternoon, with soft light illuminating the rich textures of grass, animal coats, and distant landscape. The image captures the symbiotic relationship between agricultural workers, livestock, and the Australian rural environment, highlighting sustainable farming techniques that respect both animal and ecological systems.
