And here’s a nice round up of what farmers can currently get in the way of electric equipment. Most of it’s smallish & the author notes: “The electric future will make its way to Australian farms, but anyone expecting a diesel-free paddock by the end of the decade is probably in for a rude shock. The ag sector still sits well behind passenger cars, trucks and even construction equipment when it comes to electrification – and for good reason.
Australian farms are enormous, the climate is often brutally hot and dry, and operations run long hours, often through the night. It’s not uncommon to put a tractor to work for 12 hours straight, which is why battery technology has struggled to crack the local ag sector. So far, it’s largely limited to electric UTVs [Utility Task Vehicles], with no proper electric tractors available here… yet.”

Nutrition programs work better when they include #Indigenous food knowledge
Researchers found nutrition programs work better when they include Indigenous food knowledge, local languages, and traditional practices.
By Raquel Brandao, July 24, 2026
Excerpt: "Cameras, cooking and conversation
"Some things worked. #Storytelling, #workshops, and #CookingDemonstrations turned up again and again across the 39 studies, alongside #TalkingCircles, #ShortFilms and #SmartphoneApps.
"The common thread is direction. Each of these methods lets people speak in their own words rather than sit and receive instruction.
"In #NewZealand ( #Aotearoa ), researchers built a mobile health app together with #Māori and #Pasifika partners. The language, the stories, and the pictures all came from the communities the app was meant for.
"Speaking with Earth.com, Rao described a project she led. 'In my own work, and one of the papers reviewed, I have used cameras and #DigitalTools with young women and men in an Indigenous community in #India to document their traditional food knowledges by speaking to the elders, visiting the forests and local markets, talking to women engaged in #foraging and #FoodPreparation.'
"That project is one of the 39 studies in the review. An earlier paper followed ten Santhal young people in eastern India who were trained to make films.
"They made nearly 50 films and screened them in their own villages. Older relatives supplied much of what went into them.
Elders as teachers
"Who holds the knowledge matters as much as what the knowledge is. #Elders, #healers, #farmers, and #women each carry different parts of it.
"None of it arrives as a curriculum. It moves between generations through cooking, gathering and long conversation, which is exactly what a nutrition leaflet cannot carry.
" 'Reclaiming and recognising #IndigenousKnowledge , values and practices to address the different elements of nutrition and health involves recognising intergenerational and wider social relations, and engaging everyone from the elders, healers, educators and farmers to service providers, policymakers and academics, to together raise issues and find solutions,' said Rao.
"Traditional foods carry knowledge of the local landscape in a way nothing else does. The review treats them as practical resources rather than heritage."

The only effect of #farmers #protests (both here in UK and across North Sea in NL) is that I now view any #tractor on #A12 and #A14 highway with suspicion, even when its very likely they are doing legitimate agricultural work.
Previous to the protests I just though of them as normal vehicles to see on the roads in a semi rural area..

In Canada here, and in many other countries elsewhere farmers are struggling against wildfires, drought, crop loss and shortage of animal feed.
Buy from local farmers wherever you can.

On 8/6/26, every Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee voted AGAINST a Democratic amendment to provide $5 billion in FINANCIAL RELIEF to crop farmers hurt by Trump's tariffs.
Farm income has fallen SHARPLY since Trump imposed sweeping tariffs on major agricultural trading partners.

🤑🥩 Surprise! Beef prices are skyrocketing, but #farmers still can’t afford a decent #tractor 🚜💨. Apparently, the only ones beefing up their wallets are the #middlemen and marketers—moooo-ving profits right past the actual producers. 🐄💸
