Farm Rebellion with Ernst Gotsch

Fixer Brazil served as the production services provider for the German production company Megaherz during the filming in Brazil of the latest international original on Disney+, Farm Rebellion.

The series revolves around Benedikt Bösel, a former investment banker turned farmer and visionary, leading a young team in testing a groundbreaking approach to agriculture.

Benedikt faces the challenges of drought and sandy soils on his farm near Berlin, which are increasingly prevalent worldwide. During his time in Brazil, he had the opportunity to meet Ernst Gotsch, a Swiss farmer and researcher with a background in genetic science and the creator of Syntropic Agriculture.

A film crew from Europe joined forces with the Brazilian team for a week-long shoot, capturing the captivating essence of Ernst’s agroforestry farm. This remarkable location boasts an abundance of stunning cocoa trees alongside various other species.
