    Cover Crop Corner: Part 2 Cover Crop Economics: Long-term gains through holistic improvements

    By Feed the Soil, Feed the World

    Published Oct 13, 2021 

    In part two of this two-part series on the economics of cover crops, we explore how a holistic approach to taking care of resources comes with long-term gains. By GO SEEDThere are no “quick fixes” when it comes to the health of soils, the benefits take more than overnight to show up. While it takes time and deliberate care to learn how to enhance resources holistically within your own system, the general principles are relatively simple and can be significant cost savings. “Soil is the natural capital of the land,” explains Dr Shannon Cappellazzi, GO Seed Director of Research... “This provides a positive feedback cycle by allowing the organisms to be better at their jobs and build even better intricate underground architecture which enhance the soil’s ability to perform the functions we need as a society and as agricultural producers...

The questions is, why is this MD2 pineapple so popular?Pineapple is known to contain highest amount of vitamin C among all various types of fruits. It also contains a fair amount of magnesium, calcium, potassium and iron and develops a bromelin, of which is a type of enzyme.

    Variable-Rating Fertilizer: Does It Pay Off?

    By Laura Barrera

    Updated May 12, 2020 

    For growers who are trying to follow the “4Rs” of nutrient stewardship — applying the right fertilizer source at the right rate, at the right time, and in the right place, as set forth by The Fertilizer Institute — variable-rate technology (VRT) can help them tackle two of the four, as it can determine the right rate and the right place based on prescription maps. Unfortunately, it doesn’t guarantee those benefits will provide a return on investment. Consider a study conducted in North Dakota, Montana and Minnesota from 2000-2003, where fields were divided so that nitrogen fertilizer was either variable-rated or applied uniformly. As the North Dakota State University (NDSU) article explains, using nitrogen fertilizer recommendations at the time and variable-rate applying it on a zone approach provided no economic advantage over the uniform rate... In that 2000-2003 study the NDSU article referenced, researchers found areas on lower slopes with higher soil organic matter in Montana did not respond to nitrogen, while “lower-yielding areas on hilltops and eroded slopes required more nitrogen per productive bushel than previously expected...

    What Farmers Need to Know About Mycorrhizae

    By Laura Barrera

    Published Nov 2, 2018 

    What is mycorrhizal fungi? University of Alberta biological scientist JC Cahill says that mycorrhizas are actually the interaction between a fungus and a plant... The way AMF works, Cahill explains, is that they grow inside the plant’s roots, and in exchange for sugar from the plant, the hyphae — the threadlike filaments of the fungi — capture water and nutrients in the soil for the plant. While this symbiotic relationship is often seen and discussed as a benefit to crop production, Cahill and Hart warn that’s not always the case... Cahill notes that part of the reason mycorrhizae may help with crop protection is because the AMF are already living in the plant... When Mycorrhizae Becomes ParasiticWhile AMF can provide many benefits for plants, Cahill says that in some situations the relationship can be parasitic...

    #AgHistory

    Farming, at it's core, is about taking nutrients from elsewhere, and relocating these elements to the farm so that something can be grown in order that people can eventually consume the products that in turn contain these elements. Pretty basic. To that end, if we look at farming as logistics, we have to consider the soil as the primary "logistics node". As populations grow, they will eventually outstrip the carrying capacity of of a particular plot of ground (exceed the logistical capacity of that particular node). Poor practices will certainly outstrip them sooner. Historically, even the native Americans consumed the fertility of their ground, forcing them to move maize crops elsewhere. Connecticut Governor John Winthrop published in the 'Philosophical Transactions' of the Royal Society of London in 1678 that where the "...ground is bad or worn out..." the Indians used to put 2 or 3 fishes beneath or adjacent to each corn hill (about 6 inches high and 3-4 seeds each hill). Historically, it would be incorrect to say that the only cause of worn out soil (especially since it is a burgeoning field of study) is modern farming practices. Some practices certainly are more detrimental than others, but as the native Americans in Colonial times understood, there is still a limit as to what a specific plot of ground can produce. Interestingly, most of us in agriculture have heard of the three sisters, and have even seen cartoons with a native American placing a fish in the soil, yet failed to connect the dots as to WHY it was placed there in the first place.

    REPOST - Clayton Lind
    ""Cows are wasting all our land and food that we could be using to feed people"
    Just a quick reminder to all the people out there that are arguing that cattle use to much land and are bad for the environment, this is a video of a pasture full of cows.
    As you can see, it's a field full of hills, surrounded by cliffs and mountains. Also having lived a half mile away from these cows for several years I can tell you that the dirt is more rock then soil. With a little common sense I came to the conclusion that it probably would be unreasonable and a poor use of the land to force it to grow crops that feed humans.
    Which means no, you can't plant more food to feed "more" people here. But wild grasses thrive here, so why not utilize one of natures best lawn mowers to help take care of the land and create a sustainable food source?
    Cows are a vital apart this ecosystem, and make up a huge sector of agriculture as well as contribute to society as a whole by first and foremost providing a healthy and solid source of protein, second by keeping grasses, pastures and public land well managed.
    I am no cow expert by any means, but I can tell you confidently that cows are not the problem that the news would like you to think they are.
    I am not gonna go into all the science of why cows are actually beneficial for the environment, but they are, and the info is out there if you would like to find it. (I would recommend checking out the regenerative agriculture community, they've done a lot of excellent research on the subject)
    I'm not here to say how people should farm/ranch and I am not here to make enemies. I am here to defend agriculture and not let it keep being villianized for something it is not. Which unfortunately does mean that I do have some people who are not big fans of me. But gotta break some eggs to make an omelette right? Their loss, not mine.
    Thank your farmers and ranchers, stop blaming them for something they didn't do or making them out to be something they really aren't.
    Thank you agriculture friends for putting in more hours then are reasonable, making less money then is reasonable, and getting thanked for it all with little to nothing. You guys are rockstars, don't forget that."

    How to Make Fermented Chicken Feed
    Fermenting chicken feed is an easy and inexpensive way to improve the nutritional value of your chickens food, leading to overall better health -- and quality of eggs! It takes very little supplies and time to do. Come learn how!
    Prep Time: 5 mins Fermentation Time: 3 d
    Equipment
    Large glass jar, mixing bowl, bucket, or other container (BPA-free preferred)
    Ingredients
    1-2 servings chicken feed of choice
    Instructions
    Add enough chicken feed to the container for one or two days servings for your flock.
    1: Pour dechlorinated or filtered water over the top of the feed. Add enough so that the feed is fully submerged and has a couple inches of room to expand. (If needed, simply leave a glass of city tap water out at room temperature overnight to allow the chlorine to dissipate.)
    2: Cover the top of the container with a loose-fitting lid, plate, or other makeshift lid. It doesn't need to be air tight.
    3: Set the container in a location with moderate temperatures for three to four days to ferment (such as out on the counter, in the garage, etc).
    4: Check and stir it each day. Add additional water if the feed has absorbed it all.
    5: After 3 to 4 days (our chickens prefer day 3) give them the fermented feed. If it hasn't absorbed all of the water, you can either drain it off and discard, or reserve the liquid to jump start a new batch of fermented feed.
    6: Repeat as desired, and develop a schedule. Since it takes a few days to ferment, some folks start staggered batches every day (put a date on the container!) in order to have a finished batch of fermented feed available at all times.
