Watch as these kids show what makes organic farming the choice for the future in a surprising twist on a classic children's song. www.NewMacDonald.com It's ...
What, using extremely toxic pesticides like copper sulphate, rotenone, nicotine sulfate, all way more toxic than glyphosate. Actually, table salt, caffeine, and baking powder are more toxic than glyphosate. Learn about LD50 charts and how to read them, then maybe you can stop this nonsense.Or perhaps you're referring to the nostalgic days of the Dustbowl, as you fire up your toxin spewing rototillers and grind up every living thing under your feet.Ah yes, the good old days, when men and women died at 40.
I don't think so. Farming was very different before the advent of synthetic fertilizers, cross-breeding, hybrid breeding, and improved mechanical technology. Modern "organic" farming is a completely new approach, involving the massive use of slaughterhouse wastes and displacement and mining of river and mountain-based minerals; intensive tillage using huge amounts of fuel, destruction of living soil, and increase in greenhouse gasses; and the use of highly toxic "organic" insecticides and fungicides that farmers a century ago would not have had access to or been aware of. One thing that hasn't changed much is the use of a migrant, itinerary workforce to do the harvesting and weeding, although Big Org farms use modern machinery for a lot of that, some of it still has to be done by hands. Since organics haven't really come up with effective weed control (organic insecticides pretty much suck too, that's why they have to use so much of it that it is applied at highly toxic levels) besides mulching and crop rotation and cover cropping, intense human labor is needed to weed the crops, adding to the cost of production (which is passed on to the consumer).Yet organic farmers remain steadfastly opposed to labor rights: medical benefits, retirement plans, vacation time, union organizing. Yet not a peep from the pro-organic community about these human rights violations, let alone the environmental violations and the outbreaks of disease and death occurring annually from organic farming practices.
Yes, in the good old days they did. Just the turn of the 19th century in the US roughly 40-60% of the population farmed. They had a fraction of the yields, basically a subsistence living and a life expectancy of 40-50 at the tops, with a few exceptions. They worked from dawn to dusk and lived a life of poverty for the most part.Is that the model you would like to go back to? Who gets to remain being the teacher, doctor, layer, artist, painter, and who gets the hoe given to them and led to the field to scratch out weeds all day? Remember, 40-60% of the population has to farm, not 1-2% like today.While we are at it should we abandon modern medicine too? Why use technology like MRIs, X-Rays, new chemicals, I mean medicines like antibiotics and the like, and instead let's rely on what can be found at the nearby apothecary?SMH.

This whole video is not true its all faulty info about modern agriculture processes and I recommend that everyone who has viewed this video and videos like it to watch agphd they will tell all i non farmers out there the real truth behind modern agriculture processes
You are what you eat, what it ate before you.
Power to the people, screw the corporations and their corrupt politician
puppets.
Our government is corrupt because the people we elected DECEIVED US. They
all need to be FIRED and REPLACED.
$180k/year jobs, ~540 positions up for grabs...any volunteers??? Do good
for Americans and the billions of organisms that share Earth (both human
and non-human) while making a very nice salary....WIN, WIN!
Unfortunately we didn't really elect them. Who ever wins, they were supposed to win. And it'll keep going that way until people look at the signs. I definitely believe our food is a great place to start. Art of war tactic: control the food, control the population. We take back out farms, our animals our crops and we become healthy and slowly corporations will fall. Pharmacies, fast-food chains, major grocery stores. Corporations no longer have money to pay politicians, so they jump out of their pockets. Common sense kicks in, their sanity returns, their feelings, their true nature to love and feel return. We can start it, we may not see the end outcome in this life time, but I'm sure it'll happen one day soon.
+Caroline Nguyen I agree, AND said politicians do not even put in 'normal' work weeks, yet do not want to raise wages for those who make much less money working many more hours than they! Wish we could just kick 'em out of office!
If you are what you eat, then you've been eating a lot of stupid, which Only Organic and the 45 billion dollar organic corporations have been feeding you. And they rely on your ignorance. It's the only way you'll buy their products.
We should really screw the big organic corporations - you know, the ones that use fear, uncertainty and doubt, along with the really uneducated and anti-science attitudes of the general population to account for nearly double the annual profit that pharma and ag makes....
Totally agree with you Caroline! Do you tweet? Blog? We need more strong voices to counter the evil corporations that have taken over the planet! Using technology to build a consensus/movement is important - otherwise tech is merely a huge distraction that will prevent any progress! Please follow me on twitter and I will follow back! You can check out my blog-book etc from there. Like minds need to unite to fight (non-violent) the power! Meesto@sto_ology on twitter or sto-ology.blogspot.com
for the first time in history more than half of congress (with a small "c") are millionaires and even more than that percentage have offshore swiss bank accounts, , , i'm just as "fed" up as you as are over 100 million of us, , , I pray every day for this to be resolved, but sad to say it must all first implode to do so
WE MUST HAVE TRUTH! War,GMO,Chemtrails,Earthquakes,Haarp,Disasters,Pollution & LIES NO MORE!!
We must find balance! We are powerful as one! Stay Centered Always! Love!
