Death Panel Demands "Obesity" Info in Health Records

No T, that's not how I read it. What he's saying is that the gov subsidies are what allows and even promotes them to violate their land. I pretty sure he's on our side in gov getting out of the farming business.
-
Yes, T, I would rather subsidize healthy foods, and better farming practices. That's called making a policy decision. It's not about wanting to control everything a person does with their land. You're just a nut who thinks anytime the government tries to achieve a public goal it's something we should fear.
Funny that you don't see the current policy of the government telling agribusiness to grow more soy, wheat, cotton, rice, and corn than they normally would as "progressives" telling them what they can and can't do with their land. But removing those subsidies, or switching them to subsidize better farming practices, and to make healthier foods more affordable, is some scary progressive nightmare.
It's not. It's called good public policy.

this year i went with an all natural fertilizer - seaweed annd fish emulsion concentrate, and an all natural biomatrix
wiyh amino acids... etc.
our soil is composted more every fall,
but we still use roundup on the soybean fields - it's the only way.
but we have 940 all natural tomato plants -
we keep selling out.
natural is good.

horse shit works really well, too. If I had a farm, I would barter with gorse stable to take their shit away for free. they get rid of their horse shit, i get fertilizer. of course you want to give it a year to break down before applying it.

the seaweed and fish emulsion... and biomatrix concentratesare working incredibly well.
i get ours from an Amish farb supplies stpore way out in the country called Yoders here in ohio.
you will prbably have to order it from places like E&R in indiana, or catalogs like 'totally tomatoes'.
under 20 bucks a gallon - 2-4 oz per gallon of spray.
our close freinds down the road have horses, my family does too.
compost is unbelievable in getting outstanding growth in gardens.
btw, our first farbers market, wesold out ofa lot of produce early.
the super selling items were tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and all natural wild blackberries.
There's more produce vendors this year, we are the only one with cherry tomatoes. Kids and adults rave
over them. We grow three different types - a sunsugar gold, a chocolate cherry, and a super sweet
I forget it's name.
They put any other cherry tomatoes on earth to shame, I think.
Really outstanding for snacks. It's fun to hand out samples of them - it gets huge sales...
ggg
a lot of buyers remember us from last year, when we didn't have many cherry tomatoes at all.

i'm around ironton (southern most part)
-
Yoders is south of massillon, off rt 30, way out in the country.
I can get you directions... I don't believe
their address even shows up on our GPS.... @@
They're Amish... no phone...GGG
but if you ever make it there, they are great folks, and they really know their stuff.
