  • Technology is revolutionizing farming. That's great news-by the year 2050 Earth's population will be 10 billion, so we need to almost double the amount of food we now produce.

    Hey, can you guys do a segment on Food Waste? Apparently, 40% of food made in developing countries is wasted in the early stages of the food cycle because of lack of technology, funding, etc. While in developed countries, the problem of food waste seems to come from the consumer side.
    It'd be good to raise awareness for this topic! Thanks!

    Love it. Love everything about it. Especially Vertically farming. That's a big aspect in the sci-fi novel I'm writing, along with lab grown meats, fully autonomous harvesting, 3D printing food via capsulized food (i.e. foodini), etc. I imagine skyscraper scale vertical farms being built around the world, allowing humanity's footprint to gradually scale back to cities/towns as traditional field farming becomes obsolete and reforestation can occur much faster, even while the human population continues to grow.

    You left out one important part of the equation.
    The soil must go back to the earth which the food came from.
    For example: Much of the food we consume in western Europe comes from Spain. But then the dried sewage is gets put on the closest (and cheapest) communal landfill instead of being returned to back to the farmers in Spain.
    Though it sounds trivial now, this will become a very serious issue in the future (if left unchecked)

      Modern farming is like mining with plants, creating wastelands that are dependent on fertilizer made from petroleum and poisons that leech into the soil and waterways, killing off the natural ecosystems. The giant fields of wheat or corn or soy or whatever crop, is a failed paradigm. Most of the world's deserts are man-made by mismanagement, talk about climate change, look at the fertile crescent, look at the loess plateau

Modern farming practices are far more efficient, and don't leave much seed behind. They also farm all of the way to the edges of the field eliminating cover for the pheasants to hide or nest.

    When it comes down too it we have to get rid of the thought that its up to a very small percent of people (i.e. the farmers) to feed their respective countrys population. It's up to us as a whole to feed ourselves. Dig up your lawn and start a small garden, grow some plants in your window sill, get your neighbours together as a community and figure out your food needs so you can delegate certain crops to certain people so at harvest time when Dave has the tomatoes and Sarah has the beans etc. Etc. The community can reap what they've sown and everybody eats. When it comes down to it the only way we can truly count on the continuity of our food source's (and more importantly the QUALITY) is for us regular people to re-learn how to feed ourselves. It really isn't that difficult and when you know what you're doing it can even be fun.

    Perhaps Africa should pivot and not only produce green energy and export it to other continents but also produce food through vertical farming using solar power/green energy. I really think vertical farming is the way to go, because you can control the environment; amount of water you use, how much & the type of light the plants get, control bugs & insect without chemicals, re-use the same water, automation, local product VS importing from thousands of miles away etc.

    Could you address the issue of depleting phosphorus reserves and its unsustainable open loop cycle?
    It is a necessary macronutrient for all life, which means it is a necessary part of agriculture. Our current agricultural system and fertilisation methods doesn't manage it sustainably and a shortage is looming.

    We embrace all this technology and innovation, allow GMOs, yet our children are among the sickest in any developed country in the world. Sicknesses range from all kinds of autoimmune disorders to all levels of neurological disorders. By 2032 1 out of 2 children born will be diagnosed with Autism. We also have the highest SIDS rates and the craziest, out of control, vaccination schedule.
    Ya think we might be doing something wrong? 🤔

    No mention of organic farming, why? Organic farming provides the best food ever, good jobs and it is very Eco friendly. What more do you want?

    • @Jimbogf
      @Jimbogf 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      While organic food is healthier. Organic farming requires more land, labor, and time than intensive farming. That is the reason why organic food is more expensive. That being said organic farming cannot feed the world. The amount of arable land that would be needed to feed the world organic food would have the forests plowed under for farms and also livestock pastures to collect the manure needed to fertilize the crops (since you can't use chemical ferts).

    • @mihirm3632
      @mihirm3632 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It can feed the world. For example China's population was 550 million in 1950 all sustained by organic farming. Old methods and outdated techniques fed that many people. Surely new methods of soil and land management using the latest technology and knowledge from the fields of ecology, gentics and so on can feed the 1.4 billion in China now?

    • @spiritualhumanist
      @spiritualhumanist 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      JimmyG Yours first sentence is the answer.Organic food is healthier, more nutritious, so you don’t need a large amount.Right now we don’t have food shortage, we have money shortage to by all that food that gets wasted.Intense labor? Let’s think about automatization ,small farms an biodiversity instead large monoculture farms.Fertilizers-food waste (vegetable scraps) composting with worms- best org.fert.If you stop seeing food as money it’s much easier to go organic

    You did forget one point, and one that could be applied right now and with a minimum budget from the states: EDUCATION: Educate people not to waste food (in US 40% of food is wasted), educate people not to eat meet every day, educate people to consume local food, educate people to grow some of their own foodµ, etc..

      Who ever heard of diverse polycultures of plant guilds integrated with animals to recycle wastes and manage pests and weeds? It's not like that's how nature works or anything like that. Besides, who wants to produce more food with less input and an increase in land fertility over time, right? In all seriousness you can throw all the technology and robotics at the problem, but if we're still running acres upon acres of single crop monocultures with chemical fertilizers and poisons, we'll keep degrading our arable land and killing our ecosystems.
