Joe was talking about the importance of grass (not devil's lettuce) and herd animals.
Contrary to the rhetoric from the science cult - herd animals are NOT the problem when it comes to climate concerns, but more to the point, desertification. - They are the SOLUTION.
Large herds of animals come thru - munch down the grasses, poop/fertilize the land and create healthy land. They prevent tall grasses/weeds that dry out and oxidize - and shade out the better grass varieties.
We need MORE animals....Not less. Any real farmer will tell you, it's the animals and their poop that are the life blood of the farm - without using chemical fertilizers etc. It puts natural nutrients back into the soil and helps to maintain pH levels...Plus, helps sustain fungi like mycorrhizae that are essential to unlocking nutrients and making them available to the plants.
This news alone tells me that the second Trump Administration is looking to be TOTALLY EPIC!!!
Reaching out the day after the election to Lunatic Farmer Joel Salatin -- author of books like Everything I Want to Do Is Illegal -- is incredibly better than I ever thought to expect!
I am gobsmacked. Stunned. Thrilled! We really ARE getting our country back!
Desertification happened with draining of the lake in central California and Mexico City. Corn stalks biomass for energy is just introduced and removes more nutrients from a soil area.
Herds make land useful that is not easily arable such as too rocky or too much grade. I was surprised the left “Transfarmation” went into depth on failings of factory meat farms. Specifically large farm fecal handling. Year old farms and independent are getting priced out by large corporation’s pricing control.
I am concerned how changes cause catastrophic reduction of food supply such as government overthrown when fertilizers were banned by Sri Lanka and only 25% of food production was harvested. Agriculture loss from urbanization and increase of government domain is a slower trend but cities are tending to higher density even though replacement population is under 80% so housing decay still uses land.
This is going to take a while to implement... because, well... yanno, government is involved.
New resources for implementation will be required, which will upset the existing supply chains for: NPK, lime and possibly rock dust to start transforming the soil - as well as seed, new equipment, such as no-till seed drills to keep underground fungi networks intact etc.
Education. This is a big one... Farmers will need the resources available to learn AND have access to Extension services for consultation.
Other things... including interruption of existing "shit" food supply that some Americans are addicted to, like sugared cereal and snack bs loaded with poison to make it palatable AND shelf life.
Salatin represents a serious paradigm shift and there's much to be done to keep supply chains stable as well as reeducation of the population regarding nutrition. I expect there to be some kicking and screaming from "shit addicts"...
Oh, he is an excellent farmer. I saw his message during early 2000 about how Monsanto were bullying all the farmers. At the time, I thought to myself, damn, a farmer who is so smart.
This x1000!!! I am SO excited for this particular part. Massie is awesome. Salatin is homesteading royalty. This is the administration I'm here for. YESSSSSSSS!
The term “Cabinet” is never mentioned in the Constitution itself. James Madison was the first President to use the term, basing it on the British Privy Council. The Cabinet has its constitutional basis in Article 2, Section 2, which states that the President “may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices…” Later, it mentions these heads as some of the people that must be confirmed by the Senate.
It's like a dream come true! I took some college courses twenty years ago when the GMO situation was only just coming to light. When speaking to other students about it, the overwhelming reaction was that their lives were hard and scary enough without adding that to the pile of shit to deal with.
They actually did not want to know.
Two decades of poisoning the population later, we're finally getting things about our food supply straightened out and cleaned up, and I couldn't be more encouraged.
Wow, this is amazing! He is truly a pioneer of regenerative agriculture and true conservatism. He really knows his stuff and unlike the "farm influencers" of today, actually does the work and runs his business successfully. Amazing. Way to go Mr. Salatin and the Polyface family!
That's great. I used to read his books even as a liberal, and worked on a pastured farm that followed his model. Those lessons certainly stuck with me and helped me grow out of the bleeding heart phase.
some lefties were trying to drum up some conflict with salatin, i forget the drama, can probably be easily found; nothing our side cares about though I don't think
liked his book title "everything I want to do is illegal" lol
Well. I would be illegal too because our government is so damn corrupt. He just want to sell good food without GMO from Monsanto and they beat his door down and sued him nonstop (that type of thing).
Wow! What a pleasant surprise!!!

He had some amazing info. I am not a farmer but I can tell you what I have seen in the third world countries. Animals are an integral part of farming.
People are upset about all the fallen trees in SC, NC from Helene
What I see is hugelkultur here wood chip garden there....

GREAT CHOICE! He is known across America by those who follow the principles of the Weston A. Price Foundation!!!
I don't know Weston A Price Foundation. Have to go look it up but I recognize this one.
They should also offer a position to Amos Miller, the Amish raw milk farmer.
Sounds like a win to me!

What does this do to Massie’s house seat?
Perry Stone (TV evangelist) talks about why we are seeing all of this. He said we are here to do God's work and God still need us here.
He is correct. We are here to help out until our time.
And where is USDA in the Constitution?
Article II, Section II
https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/articles/article-ii#article-section-2
One step at a time. But you're right.
Yep.
I didn't see one.
Ive always like him! This would be great for our country
Amen.
This guy has tremendousbknowledge and experience. When I get my land I'm going to model my use after his methods.
Yes. He is one heck of a farmer. There's another guy in TX that is amazing. I forgot his name but I would listen to them. Learn a lot.
We will require convincing that there needs to be a USDA.
In fact, we will require convincing that there needs to be a [fill in name of any 3- or 4-letter agency here].
The Day of Reckoning is at hand. Trump will be the 9/11 to this government's WTC.
Amen.
My nephew is a big fan of his. Has been following him for a while. Sent this to me yesterday.
Good for you. Your nephew is smart.

Impressive. Time to stop planting fence to fence.
He is such an amazing farmer.
Thanks for the sauce!
Sure. I am encouraged by this pick
What a dilf. MAHA!
Yes. Definitely.
I’d love this, but will he take it? (Didn’t read article yet)
He accepted.
Believe he said he would.
It's like a dream come true! I took some college courses twenty years ago when the GMO situation was only just coming to light. When speaking to other students about it, the overwhelming reaction was that their lives were hard and scary enough without adding that to the pile of shit to deal with.

Gosh...are we really here?
Pinch myself too.
A Righteous Farmer. I first learned about him in a Michael Pollan book.
Smart too.
This is such great News! Been reading a lot about this issue. Regenerative ranching seems like the most natural way!
He is so smart. Love it.
Damn! Great news! Wow!
Amen.
This almost made me cry.
It's dawn here in U.S. Let's make it good.
THOS IS AWESOME!!!!
Yes. This guy is one hell of a smart farmer.
Wow, this is amazing! He is truly a pioneer of regenerative agriculture and true conservatism. He really knows his stuff and unlike the "farm influencers" of today, actually does the work and runs his business successfully. Amazing. Way to go Mr. Salatin and the Polyface family!
He was actually part of my awakening
That's great. I used to read his books even as a liberal, and worked on a pastured farm that followed his model. Those lessons certainly stuck with me and helped me grow out of the bleeding heart phase.
Amen.
Chronicles 7:14! We have people like Joel and we’ve been hamstrung to utilize their expertise. So pleased with this turn of events!
Thank you so much. I love it that you are quoting at me.

They did that to the Amish and raw milk.
Sounds good, but at first it looked like Andrew McCabe... https://www.leadingauthorities.com/sites/default/files/styles/530x350/public/2019-11/mccabe-for-web.original.jpg
