  1. The Earth Rover Program could transform soil science, cut farm waste, and promote veganic farming in the UK. 🌾🌱 #farming #agriculture #veganicfarming #soilscience #farmer 

    Earth Rover Programme Promises...

  2. Hi #Mexico,

    Do you know any farms or collectives that practise #permaculture, #NoTill or #VeganicFarming (one can hope!) anywhere in the country? Please let me know.

    Starting in March, I plan to volunteer at farms, learn permaculture techniques for different climates, and continue working on my Spanish.

    I'm aware of @AgroecologyMap and plan to sign up on WWOOF. Are there other relevant resources?

  4. Instead of animal poo on farms, some farmers use only plants - green manures. These do not leach nutrients in the rain like muck-spreading and fertilisers. Nutrients are locked in complex organics. Crucially, crop plant roots have been shown to unlock those nutrients as needed.

    I'll dig out the research on request - pun totally intended 😜

  5. Cut the shit! Just ONE type of farming without animal crap. ...and put the hedgerows back in! When I was a kid, fields in my part of the UK were smaller, with hedgerows teaming with wildlife. Our combined harvester U-turned regularly.

  6. Axel war in diesem Jahr auch schon wieder schwer aktiv und sprach im Interview mit dem Vegconomist über die Chancen, die der biozyklisch-vegane Anbau für Bodenerhaltung und Biodiversität bietet. Dabei wird auch eines ganz klar benannt:

    "Die landwirtschaftliche Tierhaltung ist einer der Haupttreiber für die weltweite Drillingskrise Klimawandel – Biodiversitätsverlust – Verschmutzung”

  7. Reconcile this: liking butterflies because they provide entertainment yet hating caterpillars. They have low intelligence, reflection, creativity... Yet we wage war on them for eating OUR food plants - which they also like.

  8. Here are some veganic farming references. No pesticides (only incidental harm to animals), no inorganic fertilisers, and plant biomass/no manure.

    Iain Tolhurst (Tolly) has been doing some fantastic work on some terrible, pebbly soil in the UK. Videos on the farm on YouTube. Book.

    I think the reducing harm & exploitation point leads to the conclusion that it is vegan to eat it as long as no viable alternative exist.
    If #veganicFarming was available & accessible it wouldn't be vegan to eat food that was fertilized with animal manure in my opinion.
