    Honestly with the fact that california produces so much of the garlic in the world and the US its hard for the midwest to have any chance in hell at making a profit and with chinese garlic growers growing bad quality garlic for next to nothing it cuts almost any hopes of profit out of the equation. Thankfully the wine industry which I work in is growing and more and more people are buying wine and its easier than ever to sell at a profit.

      We (and other partners like the University of Minnesota) have been working hard for years to change the story of premium garlic in the Upper Midwest. We're proud to say more farmers are finding success growing garlic alongside other crops or enterprises. If you're ever here in August, come on over to the Minnesota Garlic Festival in Hutchinson to give 'em a try!

    Thank you so much. Just listened to previous podcast 100?? Gabe what a guy excellent principles .how can man fall when nature is the template we use to regenerate humanity through eco agriculture even tho we're not fully there yet those bars need to be placed so we have a direction to follow and placed in the right direction. I do believe that agriculture is more powerful than anyone realised. It's going to be a template for a better existence in the right way .I only hope that the technology that gets allied to it is used apropriately and engineered to fit it's purpose rather than just a way to manipulate finance for no other purpose than that. It's a big responsibility to carry and it's going to take exceptional people to attain in the right way and it's up to everyone to support the cause and for it not to get hijacked and steered wrongly. Thank you to everuone who supports the cause.

  • @swrtsolutionsinc.1092
    @swrtsolutionsinc.1092 2 года назад

    Crop plants maintain a "rhizosphere", or a concentrated area of microbial activity close to the root. The rhizosphere is the most active part of the soil ecosystem because it is where the most readily available food is, and where peak nutrient and water cycling occurs. Microbial food is exuded by crop roots to attract and feed microbes that in turn provide nutrients (and other compounds) to the plant at the root-soil interface where the plants can take them up. Since living roots provide the easiest source of food for soil microbes, growing long lived roots that feed the foundation species of the soil food web as much as possible during the growing season should be a goal of farmers seeking a productive and profitable crop. Roots associated with SWRT membranes have been shown to last all season long, contributing greatly to the improvement of soil quality because they have the nutrients and moisture they need.
