Добавлен 30 сен 2014
The Land Institute is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Salina, Kansas, that was founded in 1976. The Land Institute co-leads the global movement for perennial, diverse, truly regenerative agriculture at a scale. Our work, led by a team of plant breeders and ecologists in multiple partnerships worldwide, is focused on developing perennial grains, pulses and oilseed bearing plants to be grown in ecologically intensified, diverse crop mixtures known as perennial polycultures. The Land Institute’s goal is to create an agriculture system that mimics natural systems to produce ample food and reduce or eliminate the negative impacts of agriculture. Through transdisciplinary research and collaborations, The Land Institute builds learning communities to help society cross the threshold into diverse, perennial grain agricultures.

So, what he is saying is that when humans move into a wilderness they begin to overpopulate it. Eventually, more and more rules need to be put into place, and you end up with a communistic tyranny. Back to Garrett Hardin, Maybe this guy was on to something.
What a great talk. Sadly so little attention. People dont want to face their greed , lust for power.
We should focus more on perennial produce and food. We could really use a renewable food sorce. Also, have we experimented with perennial trees and fungi? I suspect there may be a way to increase their oxigen output.
What about staining root thst colonized from algae ? Do you know the method ?
Call upon India to fund this institute for transforming Indian agriculture and collaborate thru the Indian agri research institutions and Universities.
Thank you for your dedication to the Land All the best for a joyfilled safe holiday season ❤🎉
Big hugs to you and your family(ies) in love and solidarity. It is such a blessing to hear this being speak. I learn so much every time I hear this one and lean in deeper, to listen deeply to the song of the seeds, time traveling and longing to return. I am grateful that I was there to hear this in person
Interest form has been submitted!! Hope you select the Kilrush Food Forest in Lexington, KY as one of your civic science research plots! This project is so exciting
Great, talk Omar. Good luck with your work.
what is the yield ?
Love the ideas presented here on the interplay between rural and urban environments.
After Ink/Vinegar solution soaking for 15 mintues, what is the process that you hv done it is not clear. Can u explain after adding in Ink solution and what exactly you did to wash
Interesting!
Liked this talk!😃
This is quite an old method. There have been developments and advances in this technique since 2019 that can further increase the clarity of viewed slides and samples. It has also been shown in literature that KOH should only be used in a select set of circumstances that not all samples require.
hey what are some new advances can you share some sources
Does the land institute work with regenerative cattle grazing to protect and bring back species diversity? The land we live on was originally grazed by the keystone species, the Bison. It might be worthwhile to consult with someone like Gabe Brown or Allan Savory, or the Alberta version.
I've been looking for this for a long time.
Some of the most powerful poetry I have ever heard read. Señor Medina, you stopped my heart with each poem. Thank you for this gift!
A great presentation on what is going in Nature every day.
Is it unusual that this guy has never been to the Land Institute or met anyone who works there, and yet he was asked to serve on its board?
beautiful
that's my SISTER !!!
How many pounds per acre or kilogrammes per hectares ?
It's annoying when you drop a bunch all at once. It's overwhelming. I just want to skip them.
I so love Wendell Berry
thank you very much for sharing this!
Why not hybridizing Kernza with some productive annual wheat varieties? It might put you ahead of Salish Blue perennial wheat hybrid.
This could be quite revolutionary, especially when paired with grazing animals. And quite profitable for the farmer on the land as well.
So beautiful
I get it.... Good idea
Could it be possible for such analysis to store the root samples at -20°C for few days before processing (KOH, ink-vinegar) as presented in the video? Will freezing the sample impact VAM identification? Thank you! Regards
I am wondering the same thing. Did you ever find out?
Oh, this would be great.
Conversations starts at about 2:15
53:58 "'Inevitable' is a word much favored by people in positions of authority who do not wish to think about problems."
I've been a fan of Mr. Berry for a few years, but this talk lessened that regard. The introduction was better than the talk. For someone so ostensibly enamored of language, clarity, and details, Mr. Berry here ironically used language to substitute hazy nostalgia for prescriptions and to allude obliquely to so-called traditional values as if tradition were itself a value. There's value in many of the broad themes he mentions--particularly in linking humanity with ecology and dignity with economy--but after listening to this talk, he now seems to me unwilling to disentangle evidence from intuition, and his folksy anti-intellectualism seems less quaint than ignorant and dangerous.
I just was made aware of this man this past week. I've looked into him a bit, but I can't really wrap my head around what goal he is that can withstand critique. Is he against making things with less effort? I just bought 10 pairs of socks at Costco, very high quality, for $20. That is 1 dollar per sock. I don't know how they are made, but it wouldn't surprise me that they are hardly touched by a person. After composing this last sentence. I looked for a RUclips video on it. I'll try and link it in a following comment. Is Berry against such mass production that can make a sock for a dollar that would cost in excess of $100 for a sock of less quality? Bringing it back to farming, is he against tractors? How about plows? How about shovels? By what metric does he establish a stopping point of mechanization or industrialization? What about milking a cow. Can one person with multiple machines, not milk 50 or more times faster than a person milking by hand? How does Mr. Berry propose we afford to buy socks, milk, and a myriad other things? Is it possible that he doesn't know himself? It is certainly possible that I just don't understand him?
@@samdg1234 Don't know much about Mr. Berry, so I can't represent his views. But what does it matter for a farmer or a rural community whether a machine can milk 10 or 1000 cows a day, if the difference in profit is only marginal. All power and profits still accumulate in cities and to the elites. The farmer sees only an increased rate of soil degradation and erosion, a more binding debt bondage, and an ever less stable climate system, for which he is also to blame according to the urbanites.
@@Pythonizah Thanks for the comment. It has been a while since I watched/listened to this, so I don't remember much of the content. Nevertheless, based on my posted comment, it appears that you misunderstood quite a bit of my point. You say, *"But what does it matter for a farmer or a rural community whether a machine can milk 10 or 1000 cows a day, if the difference in profit is only marginal."* It will matter greatly. He will have 100 times the income in the one vs. the other. And it is related to productivity. Productivity in terms of units of labor to produce a certain quantity of commodity. To the consumer, milk is milk. I'm not willing to pay much of a premium for milk gleaned by hand milking vs. machine milking. If the market dictates that the farmer can make a livable wage only if he can produce milk from -1,000- 50 (more reasonable) cows daily, he will not be able to generate that same livable wage from the milk from 10 cows. It is the same with all forms of mechanization. As I asked, what was there in Berry's way of thinking that would allow a higher degree of mechanization than a shovel and yet prohibit the 30'+ disc pulled by a 200ish HP tractor that can cultivate 100+ times more land than a man with a shovel? I'd likely think that Berry's threshold is arbitrary, but I don't recall him suggesting what such thresholds are.
Hey wait! from the sounds of it this would do wonders for sand. What kind of soil is it being grown on? I got tons of sandy loam I'd love to compact with those roots. Hit me up :)
What a wonderful talk. I'm going to follow May Apples this season as they grow in a riparian zone close to my home in Chicago. Do you happen to have the web link for a list of all your videos in this series? Thank you for your work and educational efforts. I'm also going to listen to Care Work while I'm in the studio.
please balance telling with showing
We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark. Zeljko Serdar, #CCRES
Looking forward to seeing more videos. All the best and good luck with growing your channel. Did you ever look into using smzeus . c o m? It will really help you with growing your channel!
Beautiful, thanks from France
You are so welcome! We are glad to be able to share our love of the land in this way.
yeah you guys are really great... teaching people how to grow and harvest their own perennial wheat at home...NOT
Hi Dustin, we recently started a perennial wheat civic science project and are recruiting for it now. If you are interested, here is some more information about it: ruclips.net/video/ziHS5F8l0xg/видео.html
I've been fascinated by perennial legumes for the last 3 years and in the Land Institute's research. Right now I'm trying to get a perennial cow pea cross with a pink eyed pea to develop a perennial pink eyed pea. But the project I'm most interested in is crossing a perennial South African Marama Bean with a pinto bean. If anyone knows where I can find the germplasm for the Marama Bean, I'd be very appreciative. The USDA didn't have Marama Beans in their collection and the Desert Legume Program (DELEP) in Arizona didn't respond.
You could try to see if the Danforth Plant Center in St. Louis: www.danforthcenter.org/ would have information. The Global Inventory Project there seeks to identify wild, herbaceous perennial species that are strong candidates for pre-breeding and eventual use in perennial crop polycultures in temperate and tropical climates.
@@thelandinstitute Thanks for the reply! I ended up choosing a crossing of the Wild Perennial Kidney Bean with the Agate variety of Pinto Bean. I will reach out to the Danforth Plant Center though as I'm still interested in doing future crosses with the Marama Bean. Thanks again!
