All we need to do is overrun the gov, commandeer their nuclear powered soil vaporizing boring machines (I forget what they're called) and build multiple Denver Airports around the world for everyone, not just the haves.

That might be a slight oversimplification šŸ˜…

So cool. I didn't think humans were supposed to help with hatching? Like at all?

Our chick order got rekt the other week. Over half were dead in transit and we lost a couple more in the brooder. Hatchery is sending replacements, but it's a bummer. We've never had a bad experience like this before but we'll persevere.

... Highlights the need to expand local hatchery offerings beyond the breeds used for industrial warehouses.

Never in my life have I encountered a so-called ā€œclimate skepticā€ who had done even five minutes’ research on what real scientists had to say about his argument.

An online, anonymous, RNG-named meme cow seems particularly unlikely to be a good use of my or my followers’ attention.

So bye bye.

But, for other people reading, here’s what scientists found on that.

Literally can't even have a fact based conversation with these people. I got blocked. And I'm a regenerative farmer doing boots on the ground work that helps the environment more than keyboard and policy warriors 🤣

I had a feeling you'd be saying vegetables šŸ˜‰

Local market is also a big factor I didn't mention and we're saturated. Many farmers are selling at a loss and don't even realize it I guess. Too many farmers don't value their time.

We've also tried all the other stuff you mentioned as well and with a young family decided to intentional shrink down to a few enterprises and focus on our Bitcoin customers. We've slowly started adding back but focusing more on homestead scale operations.

Those high figures only scale as labor scales and that starts eating into net profit. There are two larger scale vegetable operations in our area. They create lots of jobs. I've tried doing that work and it's just not for me, I don't have the passion for plants. My wife has managed a vegetable CSA and it's a lot of work and stress for the net result, our market still isn't anywhere near those figures. I like managing animals. I like eating meat. But a resource base can only support so much. We're running 5 cow calf pairs plus yearlings on about 20 acres and I'd be hesitant to go higher so as to not destroy our land. We occasionally run pigs, but the land shouldn't be subjected to that every year.

I'd be curious what you are producing.

There's a labor component to this as well. The higher revenue you speak of demands considerably higher labor inputs.

And of course land and soil type. Basically none of our land would be classified as tillable.

Yeah I'm pretty confident there are studies that show an increase in heavy metals around solar projects. Hence the do it and leave this place idea. The township is already likely going to approve the chicken barns which will add toxic groundwater to the community.

Just got another offer...

$2500-3500 per acre per year to lease my land for solar farms.

Agricultural production can't compete with that kind of revenue.

Given our situation with industrial chicken barns likely being built next door the option is getting tempting. Sell out or lease out and move on to the next adventure.

Given your work, what research have you done to consider solar impact on "climate change?"

The "cows produce methane, beef bad" narrative is exhausting and overdone.

It's just the hot topic right now because of bird flu, but the same could be said of beef (shrinking national herd size because inferior competition) or high quality protein at all, apples and tomatoes (picked unripe and colors changed chemically)... I'm sure this list could go much longer.

Hell Bayer is still fighting over 170k lawsuits trying to claim Roundup isn't carcinogenic. Even they admit that it's not sustainable business to spend so much on court costs. I view this as natural law in the human sense of people waking up to the lies and sorry to the lawyers reading this but an overburdened justice system is yet another sign of a failing empire.

Tariffs are a wake up call. America has had it too good for very long being able to get whatever kind of food we want any time of year for shockingly low cost. The deeper the dollar falls the harder it gets to import all this food, not to mention the costlier it gets, which we're just barely starting to see.

I'm hearing egg availability is resulting in purchasing restrictions too. Natural law is pushing back against fiat food production and fiat land stewardship. The end of the empire is definitely getting closer.

You're assuming bacteria are bad. Antibiotics literally means against life. I drink raw milk and consume a variety of naturally fermented foods and drinks.

We are not the same.

Yeah the same sentiment that leads people to hoard toilet paper when the normal gets threatened. Because that makes sense šŸ™„

Water, food, health, and security would be proper knee jerk reactions when facing uncertain times... Not rocks 🤷

If it has utility that isn't open source it is as good as useless. Knowledge behind lock and key dies a death of the unknown.
