I'm all in on this one. Have done organic farming. Healthy soil is key!! So is real sustainable family farming. We had two acres. Never ate so well! Of course I had a day job. But the whole family worked the gardens and tended the chickens and turkeys.
It can start with the rejection of processed foods. Buy healthy meat and eggs from local farms. If is is in a box and says "Natural" it isn't. If it says "Plant Based" and the ingredient list reads like a toxic waste dump DO NOT BUY IT.
I learned a lot this stuff at a garden clinic once. Instead of dumping leaf litter into trash or compost bin, dig it into the soil and turn it over sometimes. It's amazing how fast the leaves breakdown. And the worms are working it like crazy. Composting in bins is OK but the plants like the in situ degradation with all the ensuing microbes and benefits.
Yessss!!! ROA is an existential issue and Bobby Kennedy is the only candidate who understands it. He MUST get into the WH. MUST. Listen to Dr. Willie Soon and you will be informed that the CO2 level in our atmosphere is not especially high. Climate fluctuations depend on solar and interplanetary orbit activity more than anything. We can adapt to these climate variations. What we CANNOT tolerate is industrial POLLUTION that the climate change propagandists ignore, with climate change serving the depopulation agenda’s cover story.
Even if one is losing sleep over CO2 (you shouldn’t) know that widespread ROA is the only effective sequestration strategy there is ... a collateral effect of ROA. Fossil fuels are significant not because of CO2 but due to issues like Hg contamination of air and water and particulate air pollution.
GMO farming has a sunset. We are destroying agricultural productivity while degrading the food supply. ROA can turn this around relatively quickly.
Ag reform and heath care reform are inseparable initiatives, existential for the nation. Kennedy is our guy. I disagree with Kennedy on some things but those issues will be settled later, with Socratic debate always preceding policy decisions. This issue REQUIRES Bobby to win the Presidency NOW. I like Trump OK but what does he know about this? Zilcherino.
This is even more important than hanging the pandemic criminals. The new DOJ can take care of that. ROA will require Bobby’s attention with the right people in key positions. positions.
Reminded that vaccines are a driver on the chronic disease epidemic. Why? Cuz the destroy the human microbiome exactly as roundup destroys the microbiome in the soil. The two are analogous and closely related to health.
Obama and Biden both think Mr. Monsanto (Tom Vilsack) is just the best for Sec. of Agriculture. This should tell us all why we do not need the Democratic Party very much in many ways.
The new film COMMON GROUND (follow-up to KISS THE GROUND) is very compelling and talks a lot about soil health, regenerative agriculture and how folks and farmers can help make these practices more commonplace. Non-partisan, celebratory, solution-oriented and informative, it's a great film, making the festival rounds now (Winter '24). https://commongroundfilm.org/
Love reading comments from folks in the echo chamber. Let’s have a little reality now. Have you ever looked at the prices Harris charges? Sure it works for him and the elites that want to support their little fantasy and more power to those that can pull this off. However this model will never feed the world so your willing to commit mass suicide by starvation this tops the evil that Anthony Fauci has done. His body count is only 24 million. This is not a defense of Big food companies. That is another error you make. The evil being done is by big food not your local farmer. But calling it big Ag implicates the local farmer. Organic sustainable farming whatever you call it is incapable of producing the food necessary for the current population on the planet. So who’s deciding who is going to die? Sorry to rain on your love feast but this lie you tell yourself over and over again does not make it true.
According to the rancher (Ranching Reboot) mentioned in the article, 80% of crops in the US are for commodities, not food. We can grow enough food naturally.
I don't believe for one minute that this approach will not feed the world. people are conditioned to both believe this (by way of industry propaganda) and by being completely spoiled by 'cheap food'. cheap food is just that, cheap as in crappy. we are in a time of potential transition. either we allow industrial ag to continue to rape the planet because the REAL way to farm 'won't feed the world' OR we transition (hint: it won't be painless) to true sustainability. everyone needs to make sane food choices. if you stopped by junk food and fast food, you could certainly afford to add in quality, real food to the diets of you and your family. if we stopped F-ing with the farming/eating practices of indigenous populations (like Gates bribing Africans and Indians into monoculture ag, with disastrous results) and let them continue with traditional methods that are correct for their climate, then that would be a start.
I know it as a fact. I finance farmers and I have seen the production from real organic operations and they all lose 25-33% of the production vs non organic production. The world is just one massive drought away from not have enough to feed itself now. So if you cut worldwide production 25-33%, people will starve. Its that simple The green revolution in India made a huge difference. (they actually just used the farming techniques already in use in the United states) And don't use the argument well I know this one guy who gets the same production organically vs Non Organically, First off he might did it once in one field in a perfect year but he was still less than his neighbor and if you look at the whole operation its never the same as regular farming.
so you are positive that it can't be done then? don't even try? don't even make steps in that direction? continue with soil destruction and food with less and less nutrient content. until when, exact?
farmers don't make money at it because the 'system' is stacked against them. I get it. Will Harris gets it and isn't judgmental towards industrial farmers (It took HIM 25+ yrs, after all)
so its not worth trying to change the system? when post WWII chemical inputs are what you call 'regular farming', well okay... that's the downward spiral we're stuck in. its all about the short term, no thought to the long term? farmers 'pre WWII' must have been doing it wrong. for millennia. people in different geographic regions ate differently; they were wrong too? 'feeding the planet' HAS TO BE an industrial commodity monoculture? really? you're sure?
and then what happens to the 'food' after it leaves the farm? it goes on to be made even LESS nutritious with ultra processing and MORE chemicals. I don't understand how that can be justified as 'feeding the world' when at that point, its not really even food, but mere calories (which contributes to obesity and ill health).
Well its already broke, don't bother fixing it, as long as we can go to the dollar store and get a box of fake mac & cheese for buck?
while I appreciate your perspective, I just don't have it in me to agree and give up and allow Big Ag to continue, with the excuse of 'feeding the planet'. Especially since all the other 'big' industries and the globalists are in the process of culling the population (but only after making tons of money off their chronic illnesses.) elites will still have steaks and lobster. King Charles travels with his own organically gardened food (in his private jet, with his custom toilet seats...)
in the meantime, I do not plan to stop reading ingredient labels and buying organic whenever I can. I believe that every organic or careful local purchase I make, can make a difference for MY family AND the people that grew it. maybe I am being idealistic but that's a win/win in my book, in my tiny slice of the world.
Just saw the follow-up film to KISS THE GROUND called COMMON GROUND, and it provides solutions to some of the things you bring up. Worth a watch as it provides hope, solutions and a way forward. https://commongroundfilm.org/

TU!

I fully support this concept. However, what I see being promoted by Big Ag and some of its supporters includes the following disastrous ideas:
1 Reduction of land available for farming;
2 More monoculture production models;
3 Reduced consumption of protein, especially animal protein, to be replaced by pills and supplements;
4 More lab-grown meat substitutes;
5 Patenting of the food supply.
Do I know this will be our future? No, I don't. But these ideas are not necessarily positive.
Right on Kevin!
The Highwire did a story on Joel Salatin’s Polyface Farm, where he explains some of the methods.

Another great program of Kennedy we're much in need of, but overshadowed by his adoration of an apartheid foreign state.
Those are big steaks out there in the field
