Let’s push to do more with less and look internally and realize the lies we have been told about what we need to live and try hard to chase relationships and not trying to get the next thing

I dislike the thought that some animal has been made miserable to feed me. If I am going to eat meat, I want it to be from an animal that has lived a pleasant, uncrowded life outdoors, on bountiful pasture, with good water nearby and trees for shade. Wendell Berry "What Are

Ah Newton Iowa, original home of Maytag washers and refrigerators. Back in the day they used to last forever and ever. Now they just last For Never.

It’s wild how billionaires & corporations are blatantly immiserating everyone in this new Gilded Age & yet pundits & their affluent liberal fans are still pretending they aren’t the problem. Let them eat airport books & TED talks — a great populist message for 2028! Huzzah!

Seeing a push from people, especially with beef, that it’s too expensive and we need to actively import or find other solutions….a much greater push than against healthcare, vehicles, insurance, etc….basically anything that can be financialized is safe from scrutiny…why is

Casey Schuhmacher We Have been Taught that Food should be Cheap instead of High Quality but More Expensive. The Effects of this is that the Savings People Have In Buying their Food is Offset by Higher Expenses in Other Ways, especially Healthcare. Consumer Culture has Completely Consumed Us

It's time that we realize that true food scarcity is so rare and calories so abundant that most people do not value food. We're such a decadent society that more focus is put on maintaining worthless lawns and landscaping than tending a garden.

We tend to think of weed pressure suppressing yields because of competing for water and nutrients. We often miss thinking about how the presence of weeds indicates soil dysfunction that causes yield drag, even when the weeds are 'controlled'. Spraying the weeds doesn't

Idolatry is committed, not merely by setting up false gods, but also by setting up false devils; by making men afraid of war or alcohol, or economic law, when they should be afraid of spiritual corruption and cowardice.

People lament the loss of farmers/ranchers, but what’s the alternative? People stopped b/c it wasn’t economically viable with loss of purchasing power of what was produced. Efficiencies and consolidation masked this to an extent, only way to reverse is make it super profitable.

Sometimes it feels like society wants the nostalgia more than the reality. Just like any industry, it will require a massive boom to attract new capital/people. Otherwise, we just continue to wither on the vine with the hope some other county will eventually feed the citizens.

Of course, society wants nostalgia. It's said young men look to the future, and old men look to the past. Our aging demographics and declining birthrates mean we're getting old...... Agriculture is old and getting older.

Start with the supermarkets and processors who pass off foreign-born, foreign-raised, and foreign-fed beef as American beef because it’s slaughtered here, Andrew Ferguson.

Ck Jerod McDaniel TweetsQuixotic FarmingForPennies Europe has to much of big brother forcing them to do things but I agree. Let’s change the value of what it means to grow food when it’s the way God intended and man got his grubby paws on it to squeeze more money out for the middle man. A hard days work actually has value

It’s a fascinating thing about a sunrise. Beginning from the first moment that light streaks across the sky, long before the sun breaks the horizon, no two moments are alike. Each second of light illuminates the land, water, and sky in a different, unique way. That light is never

There is an inevitability to our current system of government and social norms. The war between the productive and the parasite has waged since the ending of WW2. The parasite has increased in size and totally overwhelmed the host. The parasite is now at a stage where it can

Jerod McDaniel After the fall of the Roman Empire there was a resurgence of chestnut tree planting as farmers pivoted from growing grain for empire towards a more leisurely production lifestyle to serve their communities. We will see that here too. Farms are in that dying grains phase now
