All true, there is so much ignorance on how seeds are produced and sold!
Francesca Stefanato
2025-08-06 20:22:43 +0000 UTCAll of these staple crops produce viable seeds. I think this started as some myth about "terminator genes" that would stop germination but terminator seeds are not a thing and have never been a thing. Farmers othen do not save seeds year to year because of two reasons. 1) Any GM traits are usually under patent, and saving and replanting seeds is considered a patent violation. 2) for some crops, particularly corn, the seed is a hybrid produced by crossing to fully inbred parents. This does a few things, hybrids are particularly vigorous growers and they are all nearly identical to each other so individual plants can't outcompete each other. Seeds from a hybrid cross (Gregor Mendel's F2 generation) are an absolute jumble and will lower yeilds the next year. Seed companies protecting their inbred lines and selling hybrid seed goes back to around 1900 in the US. Open pollinated (non-hybrid), non-GMO seeds are still available to farmers and individuals, but they can't produce the yeilds of hybrid seed.

2025-03-04 11:45:23 +0000 UTCThis episode is Nova realizing that everyone in Hollywood that you know about comes from money. And probably crazy-money. We just kinda started talking about nepotism when those actors had children that were also actors. And then maybe one line further down, so it's really obvious. And then you "wikipedia-them", and you learn how their great-great-grandad invented the Toaster Strudel in-between being the Imperial Wizard for his local chapter.

"Yes, I know like 99.9% of all media products we create over here - about ourself - is how fucking rad it is to be like us. Every now and then we make like an indie-movie about how it's actually pretty rad to - instead - live a very simple, agrarian, romanticized peasant-life." "So, just consider that there's like, other ideas of how to be, also. The distribution is just very lopsided right now. " "More to come, I am sure, as things quote-un-quote change a lot. My money is on us starting to say some really wild shit. I don't know if you've met us before, but we don't handle bad news super-well. We're very high-maintenance. We need A LOT of reassurance before we do something differently." "So, like, a lot of emotional-labor incoming. Just a heads up."

2025-03-03 19:46:50 +0000 UTC"Doing arable AND animals" is very ambitious. It's like, a bit of a handful in Stardew Valley. And that's just a video-game. I usually limit myself to a lot of crops, and then ducks. Maybe a goat or two. ..in the game, that is. In real-life I'd have already died from stress-related illnesses. It would have to be a strict "no firearms allowed on this property" kind of farm. You know - just in case.

Micah Staffanson
2025-02-22 00:23:12 +0000 UTCThere's a sweet spot there where you have smaller privately owned farms that are socially organized well enough to make things work. Rugged individualism was always a myth. That said the Amish aren't necessarily environmentally friendly either despite the image. I tend to view the misery and labor alienation from farming as similar to other work, it's about the relationship to the work and capital and how tight the screws are clamped down to the get the profit out. My farming work (such as it is), is much more enjoyable then my office work, but if I had to rely on it for all my income it would be much worse because the rate of pay per hour is so much lower.
jamin
2025-02-20 20:28:58 +0000 UTCYeah I agree. I think nationalising might not be the right approach either. Over centralising things still alienates people from decision making and the products of their labor and creates birds eye view problems where management doesnt really understand whats happening on the ground for the people they make policy for. I think farming and farmland ideally could be collectivised on the town/village level. Whether that is actually practical in the real world though i'm not sure. Hutterites and the amish already basically do this and they are incredibly successful.
Kyle Caswell
2025-02-20 20:08:02 +0000 UTCAs far as building a politics around farming from the non-fascist or left parts of the political spectrum the time is ripe, but oh boy are there a lot of problems to work out. Farming (in the west) is pretty much dead center of the energy/climate/politics crisis and it's probably perfectly typified by a conservative farmers who have the time to drive machinery that costs as much and is a big as a house and just burns through fossil fuels like nothing else to the capital and waste valuable manure on a building. This is specific to the US but I don't think the current subsidy regime can hold politically if it's challenged. The farm bill includes food stamps because it was compromise between roughly equal sized rural and urban constituents with the understanding that farmers need to stay afloat despite the market and the urban workers must be provided with cheap food. Now that the population is overwhelming urban even the outsized influence of rural districts probably isn't enough if put to. There's no longer a million hog farmers in Iowa, there's just one guy. As far as a fundamental through line that would provide a common ground to organize around the best shot is probably the fact that both house prices and farmland prices must be decoupled from land speculation. If that means a cap on how many houses you can own and how many acres of land, good.
jamin
2025-02-20 19:55:58 +0000 UTCI also don't know that nationalizing the whole food chain is really going to play out so well either. I know in the UK the commons were a big deal but I think that was mostly around grazing rights and woodlands not arable production. Fundamentally you're going to need people on the land who know and care about growing food on it without destroying it. But that definitely means insulation from the race to the bottom commodity production under capitalism in one form or the other. Land prices also need to be decoupled from speculation as well and for sure seize the 1000+ acre tracts from the gentry.
jamin
2025-02-20 19:37:57 +0000 UTCnp! This is my thing so ask away. And by thing I guess I mean figuring out how to feed myself from a former corn field formerly to that tall grass prairie in a location that if we're lucky should remain habitable for the next several decades. I don't want to over sell the adaption either, the whole modern food system is predicated on things staying the same forever and farming more broadly runs into physics pretty quick. Photosynthesis mostly works best when it rains 0.25" every day for two hours in the morning, then is 85F and sunny for 16 hours with a light breeze. The longer you get pushed outside of those conditions the less biomass you make. And to that the whole premise of farming depends on stability if not hospitability of the climate (the Dakotas make nice corn in the summer but you can't convince me they're not inherently hostile to all life) and even if you can adapt with what you grow, it might mean less food yield or more expensive prices. Because the commercial margins are so thin partly makes those climate shocks worse, since a 10% reduction in yield could very well be the tipping point for making the monetary side play out.

jamin
2025-02-20 03:15:14 +0000 UTCyeah they got terminator genes and hybrids mixed up there for a second. Seed production gets overlooked way too readily even for the small scale gardening stuff. It really is a different skill to grow for good seed vs food production.
jamin
2025-02-19 22:29:06 +0000 UTCYes this is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for! Thanks.
Kyle Caswell
2025-02-19 22:08:43 +0000 UTCThe how much land does it take to feed a person only really has one definitive answer which is to go outside and try it for yourself! In all seriousness though it really depends completely on your location and what you eat. 18acres for a cow/calf pair seems a bit high to me, but if you went 100 miles west it could be over 40 acres and if you're in Ireland I imagine it's way less. With hand tools when I was running the CSA I could produce the equivalent of 3 million calories an acre, now that was irrigated so that helped, but it was also a lot of expensive low energy crops like lettuce had it all been potatoes total calories would be much higher. Of course you can't eat just potatoes and you need some fallow land to build fertility so then you have to calculate that, etc which leads to the crazy range of estimates you probably saw. To your point on animal manure, one issue that wasn't covered (and well there are so many more that could be) is the relative over production of grain. So land near me is covered with nitrogen fertilizer to kill the fish, this makes cheap grain that then gets truck to CAFOs where it's forced fed to animals to make cheap meat, and their shit pollutes the water AGAIN. I won't go full vegan not all of this grain would be available for human use, but at least for awhile we've still got a food distribution problem not a production problem. But climate change is coming fast.
jamin
2025-02-19 22:06:35 +0000 UTCConAgra, Cargill, Tyson, GM, and the lot should be obliterated. Fundamentally in terms of farming's climate contribution you're either looking at 1. The insane amount of diesel to produce and ship everything, or 2. The loss of carbon from the topsoil from constant tillage. For the former there is something to be said about shortening supply lines esp on high value/low energy density crops, or you need to seriously consider how to farm with way less fossil fuel or provide nitrogen without natural gas. For the later, this can somewhat be mitigated with good farming practices like cover cropping, rotations, green manure, riparian buffers and no till but that typically carries increased herbicide use for burn down. In terms of climate resilience. That is very much a farm by farm type of deal and comes with tradeoffs. In the immediate term crops can be traded down to less water thirsty crops (if the market allows) or if water is still available but more variable irrigation can be used where rain previously worked, but that increases energy use. Hilltop cultivation can be stopped to concentrate water on the lowlands, in the medium term more heat tolerate crops can be bred. Parts of Sicily are growing mangos instead of olives now. But at some point there's a limit to what you can do and still be farming, and then after that you can ranch or gather, and after that... it's 3 people living off prickly pear fruit in a vast desert.

2025-02-19 21:42:44 +0000 UTCan acre is the size of area a fit man can work in a day with 15th century hand tools or an oxen plow provided the soil is the correct and suitable loam of lowland England. hope this helps.

2025-02-19 06:48:59 +0000 UTCKind of disappointed the only solution they mentioned was "nationalise everything" with no examples or breakdown of how much that would reduce food prices.

2025-02-17 04:34:09 +0000 UTCI think an acre is when you've been sorta day-drinking, stand up, and look towards the horizon, gesturing towards it, and clumsily try to make some grander point to a so-so friend about the ever-green spaces of possibility as it pertains to land that you own, should you ever make any fully realized use of what you own. That, is an acre.

2025-02-14 17:57:45 +0000 UTCIm pretty uninformed about how the migrant labor is being handled with the deportations. H2A labor has been used for decades now to allow migrant workers to work and live in the US temporarily. And if the administration starts deporting those workers we're in serious, serious trouble. Which Im not sure why they would, because they are seasonal and go back to their homes when harvest is over for the most part. So it would be a massive waste of resources and unneccessary to do that. Not saying deportations arent a waste of time and resources already... I don't know man, I've probably invoked whatever dark god is steering this timeline and itll happen now too... fuck

Will Clark
2025-02-14 03:57:44 +0000 UTCAs someone who worked in Ag-Tech, the space is completely flooded with bullshit solutions that farmers don't want. Ive worked on strawberry harvesters and apple harvesters which both are extremely labor intensive and really, really difficult to replicate human quality picking, both in fruit quality and speed. I think its hard to say if anything will make it through to an end product, but one thing is true, the migrant workers in the end are the ones who lose. If the workers are paid more, the farmers look more and more for solutions to get rid of workers, which is where the automation comes in.
Blake P.
2025-02-13 18:20:49 +0000 UTCAvocado harvest peaks in Southern California around January. My very old Fuerte Avocado tree produces fruit you can pick in November (smallish, tricky to ripen, tend to be rubbery) but they are better picked around January and continue to grow for months (although if they get too big, they ripen in layers and the outside will be near rotten, and the core still rubbery if you get, say, a 22 oz avocado monster). Only get a large crop once per two years. I think Hass trees are similar in timing but produce annually. Unsure the peak season for imported avocados, but my guess is Mexico would be similar, so the least natural season would be around late summer/Fall.
Greg Wood
2025-02-13 18:10:16 +0000 UTCI basically feel like - and you don't even have to tediously be called "a doomer about it" - that a lot of how we live, what we expect as "being normal" is so easily mistaken as "how it always has been, and always will be" when it just as easily could be purely the result of, and the feeling of, being alive, in this particular time. This makes planning for the future very difficult, because you don't truly understand a dire situation until you are truly in it (and that situation could be theoretical, and far from actually happening). ...it's this dynamic that makes something like grand-scale "agriculture"/"how do we feed people?" a question that is almost as difficult to comprehend as the cosmos. Or, indeed, any planetary planning. ...it's just very difficult, when you plan for the future, to fully take into consideration the time you are in (as it pertains to how urgent things "feel"). //Not sure if that makes; been going through a lot that has to do with feelings of temporality lately, and decision-making, so it's particularly on my mind. I think it's just on a fundamental level very difficult for humans to plan very far in advance, but very easy for us to freak out when a crisis actually happens. And if that is true on a personal level, then it is true on a "let's plan for the future level", which includes "getting everyone on the same page" (and why that is so incredibly difficult, in the abscense of a unifying belief of some kind. More so, if there's actively forces that encourages isolation with other people).

2025-02-12 20:56:50 +0000 UTCI once looked up what the recommended acreage you need to go off the grid/live self sufficient. And they recommend 2.1 acres for a vegetarian, 18 acres if you need to raise livestock, per person. This is a problem because there's not even 16 Billion acres of habitable land on Earth. The reason we aren't all starving, although some populations certainly, is partially seafood, but mostly industrialized farming. Which has an atrocious impact on the environment. The amount of literal livestock shit alone that spills into freshwater, water sources is truly insane.

2025-02-12 18:41:57 +0000 UTCCorn sweat is awful, but it does supercharge that idyllic early morning fog. In the hilly areas down the road from my house, the fog pools in the low-lying areas over the creek, so you get these shaded foggy woodsy bits breaking up huge gold-orange morning sunlight lit corn and hay fields. All that combined with rundown farm buildings and wooden fences, creaking metal windmills and babbling streams, it makes walking to see the cows, like, cloyingly bucolic. So who’s to say if it’s bad or not.

2025-02-12 18:00:55 +0000 UTCIt should also be said that - outside of" farming in the capacity of gardening on your little home plot" - that farming fuuuuuuckiiing suuuuuuuuuuuucks in terms of energy you need to put into it, crazy hours to get up, the overall work-load. It's crazy that anything can get done through it. It feels close to a miracle that it works well enough that you can depend on it as infrastructure for food-production.

2025-02-12 12:12:13 +0000 UTCAs a child of the nineties the first slide gives me DREAD.

Humans, unbelievable.

Mariana Trench
2025-02-12 06:20:25 +0000 UTCLoved hearing my pet theory (as a kid who grew up on a farm) "farmers love their children less than other parents" and the seeds aren't necessarily nonviable, but most high yield commodity crops are grown from F1 seed for maximum hybrid vigor. The "inbred" parent lines (P1) are a lot less productive as are the following generation, the F2s. There are crops that seed saving is an option: "heirloom" and "varietal" lines. But seed saving is also not a simple or risk free process. It requires equipment to clean seed, the environmental conditions for full maturation, and curing, and appropriate storage facilities (which for optimal germination can require storage in inert gas until the next season).

2025-02-12 03:43:13 +0000 UTCJust to say recently a big YouTube channel with private listed Patreon videos had their entire Patreon only YouTube channel taken down with no recourse because YouTube didn't like their content (comedy skits)... So just because the video is unlisted it doesn't mean YouTube doesn't care unfortunately

2025-02-12 03:16:51 +0000 UTCAt 1:48:00 - some GMO crops do have viable seeds - it depends when they were marketed and if they use so-called "terminator" genes or not.

2025-02-12 02:56:12 +0000 UTCI'm curious what the opinion is on aquaculture. I'd imagine it has similar flaws to vertical farming, but the integration of fish into the system to create a biology feedback loop, plus double harvests make it more promising.

Get them the comics and short story books. My personal favorite is Stinky, he's a massive fucking moron but he's my baby, but so is Moomin, I love him so much and the stories are so cute and so full of warmth and kindness and fun. There are some fancy mugs that live rent free in my mind.
