Hello Mastodon!
A quick #Introduction post from me. I'm a freshly-graduated Pākehā public historian researching Te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi in #Aotearoa #NewZealand.
I'm deeply interested in systemic change based in kindness, community, inclusion, liberation, and solidarity. I'm particularly keen to connect with other folks similarly involved in #RegenerativeFoodSystems #FoodSovereignty #UrbanFarming #OrganicAgriculture #CommunityDisasterPreparedness #QueerLiberation #IntersectionalFeminism and leftist organising.
I'm an avid reader and amateur artist who believes deeply in the value of human endeavour, critical thought, creativity, and absurdist humour. As a result, I'm an #AntiAI absolutist.
Excited to meet other like-minded folks and learn from your collective wisdom!
I've always believed that agriculture has the potential to create impact far beyond the farm.
From sustainability and food quality to rural development and innovation, every step forward in farming can contribute to a healthier future.

One of the best ways to secure our future can be obtained through growing food today that will help dissolve hunger problems in our communities #agriculture #photography #sustainableagriculture #foodproduction #organicagriculture #socialimpact
We maynot be able to prepare this worldwide,but everyone can start with what he has in forcusing to a hunger free world that is suitable for everyone to live.

Great things are not done with wishful minds but only with hardwork which involves sweating,intelligence and sometimes loss of blood.
This groundnuts garden exists not because we just wished for it but we had to pay all costs that were needed.

Dear Colleagues,
The first part of the 5th EUSO Stakeholders Forum will be an online event on 12th June, focussing on the topic "Soil health and EU competitiveness". During this event, case studies from the private sector will show how healthy soils can promote competitiveness in terms of the three pillars:
a) closing the innovation gap
b) decarbonisation and competitiveness
c) reducing excessive dependencies
The event includes presentations from the biotechnology sector, agribusiness, banking-financial sector, remediation industry, start-ups, carbon farming, development of clean products and retail industry.
More information as Agenda, Speakers and Registration can be found in the page:

Kind Regards,
Panos PANAGOS, PhD.
Scientific/Research Officer
Project Leader of EU Soil Observatory (EUSO)

My thoughts:
Ok, we need urgently more awareness about soils. We need more #OrganicAgriculture, #RegenerativeAgriculture, #AgroecologicalTransition, #CommunitySupportedAgriculture and much more. What we *definitely* don't need, is a meeting with NOT A SINGLE FARMER, but people from Syngenta, Bayer, Nestlé and a bunch of other industry representatives to allow them to show that they are trying soo hard to protect our environment while they do everything they can to sabotage meaningful policy changes. Venture capital funded Start-ups and old villains are definitely not the structural change the agrifood-system needs.
Maybe it will still be an informative event, who knows.
Thank you for listening.

Sweet potatoes are soo good!
*switching on nerd mode*
Also, we are working here on a very interesting horticultural management system to improve soil health by applying wood residues (e.g. branches from tree pruning). The wood residues increase soil organic carbon and contain also some nutrients. Usually, people would advise against using wood residues as fertilizer (because they contain a lot of carbon, making the other nutrients such as nitrogen unavailable and not letting crops grow), but some farmers found a very nice solution:
They apply the wood chips and plant directly sweet potato. Sweet potato is a totally rad plant that has cool bacteria around their roots that fix nitrogen and grows perfectly in these soils. After some months, you can harvest a nice amount of sweet potatoes AND have a supernicely regenerated soil for other crops.
The inventor calls the technique "Carboniato" (boniato is sweet potato in spanish).

"Widespread Occurrence of #Pesticides in Organically Managed Agricultural Soils—the Ghost of a Conventional Agricultural Past?"
Harry Siviter: "Fields that have been organic for 20+ years contain multiple pesticides.
We need a culture change in agriculture. Short-term solutions, such as pesticide use, need to be replaced with long-term management schemes that promote healthy, robust agriculture."
