They act like this is something new … giving it a trendy new name — ‘regeneration’ … 

My paternal grandparents were farmers in eastern Ohio — had about 280 acres on which they raised not just alfalfa and corn and wheat … but about 150 dairy cattle and 2 dozen beef cattle plus about a dozen hogs and about 400 chickens.

Grandfather didn’t want to get on the chemical merry-go-round of fertilizers and pesticides and herbicides and antibiotics … he did what was once called simply … farming. In more recent parlance, it’s been known as ‘organic’ farming … and he did it starting about 1910 or so … practicing crop rotation and letting fields lay fallow every so often (planted them with purple clover) … spreading manure everywhere possible … 

It was just common … sense … farming … period.

Sells more books and goodies if you can rebrand with a trendy name.

Everything old is new again

They’ve been trying to get rid of it as long as I have been alive. If we hadn’t done this we’d never have known what it does for the land, for the things that live on it, for us.

There weren’t really many things you could do differently in 1910, most of that stuff didn’t exist yet. Fertilizers ran the gamut from industrial chemicals to mined guano to just adding minerals to your field. And people promoted working the ground to death.

The standard model of farming is to use up what you have, and move on. A better model is to maintain what you have. Some rotations, cover crop, and animal usage are probably here. I’m not interested in branding/rebranding of ‘regenerative’ but there is more to be done.

Ultimately, I don’t think any of it will matter if people don’t decide:
-To reject poison of all types
-Growing food is not an industrial process.
-We are not here to serve Mammon.

Call me a cynic, but if Aquaman, Woody Harelson, et al. are promoting regenerative agriculture and this film is not being supressed then they are likely trying to hijack a healthy and much-needed movement to maintain their narrative.

The best lies have elements of truth. And even in this short snippet you get plenty of “we’re saving the climate for the collective good.” Seems like reframing so tomorrow they can say “yes, we control all the farms, but they’re regenerative farms now!”

The real solution is small-scale, community-based regenerative farming.

On our farm after vegetable crops were done, we planted about 40 acres of soy beans. When they matured they were turned into the soil to “regenerate” the fields. My father said soy beans are not fit for human consumption, he was right. Now they put soy in everything. The toxicity of soy beans was widely known back then.

Thanks for the excellent link … and the articles it links to beyond …

I keep trying to tell folks that soy isn’t good for us … almost none of them want to listen … and so it goes …

The people trying to be trannies eat soy for the hormones to fuck up their bodies. I don’t know what else there is to say.

I tried to warn people too, before it was in everything. One friend drank soy milk regularly and actually started doing faggy shit, I didn’t really like being that right about it.

Back then they mostly used soybeans to manufacture auto dashboards. We weren’t fucking eating them!

Do you desire to glorify God through the way you farm? Are you tired of reading books on farming and food production that ignore God as Creator? Have you ever wondered what agriculture would look like if it was based on the Bible instead of on evolution, Mother Nature, or the latest manipulations of life by science?

In Born Again Dirt, Noah Sanders encourages Christian farmers to evaluate their farming methods in light of Scripture. This book looks at various Biblical principles related to agriculture and provides examples of practical application. Topics covered include: -Designing farms as beautiful, fruitful homes. -Honoring God’s design in farm production -Growing crops that honor the Lord -Marketing as ministry -The idolatry of modern agriculture -Advantages of the farming lifestyle -Starting a farm and making a living. Without claiming to have all the answers, Born Again Dirt seeks to inspire you to develop a vision for God-glorifying agriculture.

This book is a must read for any Christian who is a full time farmer, backyard gardener, or for anyone who desires a more Biblical view of agriculture.

Does it involve killing trees that won’t bear fruit out of season? Or having ‘servants’ do the work for you? If you want to see what people using the bible as their guide do, look to the plantations aka early colonies. And I’m not talking about importing africans.

PS I’m not saying Sanders is that bad. But his focus is either marketing or ministry, if there is a difference.

your hatred and vitriol against anything Christian or Godly is really over the top. You are incapable of allowing someone to voice/write their viewpoint, belief or faith without reflexively writing a comment full of your disdain.

Give it a break- believe what you believe and we’ll all know the truth one day as the human death rate is still 100%.

He or she and all the many others do it to justify themselves, or at least try to convince themselves that they not God are somewhat in control of their lives. It is what is called ‘whistling past the graveyard’. This person did not bring up the telling of the farmer that begins in Luke 12:16 by Jesus in his showing of Biblical knowledge.

Never satisfied is their creed.

What does Luke 12 have to do with anything? It is a parable, not a supposed happening, but if you want to neither sow nor reap, toil nor spin, whatever.

If I wrote about Virgil’s Georgics, and how they are many times more knowledgeable, useful, and beautiful, many christians would declare it idolatry, blasphemy, or satanism.

So yes, I will make fun of the concept of a biblical agriculture as some sort of thing to aspire to. It is about making the world submit to man. What is the first thing christians always do when they go somewhere? Figure that out, and you will find the source of my disdain.

Was the hate and vitriol because I mentioned the miracle of jesus cursing a tree out of spite?

“anything Christian or Godly”
two separate things

Give us some of that Georgics, I’m not very familiar with Roman culture other than that they killed Christians and the leaders were a bunch of psychotic players.
Take time to enlighten me on what Christians do where ever they go. Now that would be interesting.

It is poetry which mixes history, myth, nature, animals, and agricultural instructions and knowledge. There are plenty of public domain translations and one version at librivox, though librivox is an acquired taste. It all depends on what interests you.

As for the other, think. Picture yourself as a non-christian seeing them show up for the first time.

This seems misguided. You can have God in any calling. Farming isn’t different, except to highlight how in that calling we can find all the things wrong that the parents of the boomers bought into.

Crop insurance, subsidies, market futures – it is all bullshit. No different than the rest of the economy. Don’t get me wrong: without ag subsidies you would starve to death. No “free market” can balance the realities of farming and its reliance on the weather, without going bankrupt. And farming is no small skill to learn. Midwits will never get it, the rest of you already have.

I thought Joel Saltin was good stuff, but I really like he introduced me to Gred Judy and regenerative ranching. How can anyone not get excited about good soil health without chemicals? Really the two are anathema.
