Thanks J.M, your views on appropriate technology are like a salve. Small farms with appropriate tech, and human farmers using there intuition well as logic are the climate solution I'm nailing my colours to as well.
Climate has never stopped changing throughout history.
When you talk about things against the interest of the 'investor' class and advocate small farms or home sufficiency farming (something investors can't make money on or use agriculture as a tool against you)...you might find yourself on their naughty list.
C'est exactement le genre de questions auxquelles nous sommes en train de répondre collectivement avec la FNAB.

thanks for all you do
You probably will cover the following points in your seminar, but here goes:
Are you aware of the video "Symphony of the Soil". In it they prove that organic farming soils retain water many times better than non-organic, dead soils, thus conserving water and saving the plants as climate change droughts come.
I read that if all the ag in the world was converted to organic, we could arrest and reverse global warming /climate change.
Another advantage to small, local organic family farms is that they can continue to provide abundant wholesome food and build soil as industrial large scale petro-chemical ag far from the markets fails due to: with Peak Oil /the End of Affordable Fossil fuel (and natural gas) will make it too expensive to transport food an average 1,500 miles from farm to market and to run the massive machinery and to make and transport artificial fertilizer, with the end of the oglala aquifer in the midwest and a drier climate the bread basket of the midwest will dry up, the minimal or no top soil of the megafarms will take many years to rebuild organic soils while still the people must eat.
"When we farm for Nature, then Nature farms for us"
"When we farm like Nature, our farms becomes like Nature's farm - cornucopias of perpetual plenty, beauty, vitality and harmony"
Sorry there are so many people here that bought into Big Oil's lies. Keep doing the good work and keeping your head out of the sand.❤
Lol, where do you think they are making their money now...? Big finance is big finance.
I love how people seem to think that climate change is directly observable. It is not. You need to examine long term datasets to determine these small , yet significant trends. What you are observing is mostly due to weather extremes year to year. This is not climate change. Its noise. I guess part of the problem is a definition on the time and spatial of what we are talking about in regards to climate. That said, I agree human scale farming is the most robust path sustainable at going forward. Cheers
Perhaps the focus should just be on the vast pollutants humans are pumping into the environment and get off the whole “climate change” debate. Seems like the acceleration of chronic disease will end us before an environmental collapse.
Regarding your comment about harvest dates / sowing dates becoming earlier over the past 10 years.. an important point to remember is the Clean Air act that was put forward in the late 80s early 90s led to a reduction in sulphur emissions which had a cooling effect ( sun blocking particles). Hard to say what extent of the warming since 1990 can be attributed to that but it plays a significant part.
Just a thought, have you checked when the highest Brix is in the produce you harvest? Are you sure you are harvesting at the optimal time? Perhaps adding shade for yourself for when you are about to harvest and harvest at the best time for the best Brix later in the day.
Thanks for this video JM. Totally agree with you. Do you know if anyone is doing small-scale staple crops (wheat, rice, etc) well? And if so, can that be scaled up to feed a local community, or will those types of crops still need to be grown in specific regions at larger scale and then exported (if even just domestically)? There appear to be great examples of small market gardens, small dairies and small scale meat production. I just haven't seen much around staple crops.
There are several small farms here in the eastern region as well as California that grow rice which we plan to try growing as well in the coming years. Downside is that the price is very high compared to imported rice.
@@hasenafarms6448 I’m sure it will be vary hard to compete on price (until there is a collapse). I was more curious as to what be possible and if local or regional production could meet current demand. Thanks for your thoughts
If you drive in the United States mid west you can see the old one room school houses here or there are built on square islands of top soil five, or ten feet or more high. That is what modern farming has done to the top soil.
Ya man!
Maybe certain crops best suited not to be grown mid Summer
Phew! Looks like they got to him 😅
Cl1mate starts at 30 years. That:s the smallest measure. So you compare a 30 years block against a other and they will say practically nothing about anything. It's like comparing the weather from 1 second to another. Noone can possibly claim that those seconds mean anything yet here we are...
You lost me at UN? Are you that gullible?
I really appreciate all you guys are saying and as always, your teaching is sound. But when is North America gonna get real about peat extraction? I listen to all the dope channels, even dedicated to composting, or propagating. All I hear about is Peat. A finite resource, a carbon sink, that we can never recover in our lifetime, or those of our children. Why is this not being taken more seriously on your continent? You looked to Europe for traditional techniques. We look to you for innovation. But when will you catch up on pulling the plug on fossils?
I wish you'd study the climate data instead buying into the narrative hook, line and sinker.
He said UN. He said it all. Clown world
And what has the data that you've so exhaustively studied tell you? Please, tell me in as much detail as possible.
climate change is not about solution it is about new taxes so no need to do that just tax everything.
@cepamoa1749 the solution is land management and turning every monocrop desert into oasis! taxes are for politicians and bureaucracy
I really like what you do, but please stop virtue signalling. I get it you're on board with liberal agendas. I just want to feed people.
It’s not a liberal agenda, it’s a corporate agenda. They will use it as a vector of control and profit because our politics has been captured by the corporatocracy.
