Great talk. Really interesting comment on pasture forages grown under trees. 80% the growth by dry weight, but 4 times the digestibility and feed value.
Palatability means 'it tastes better' rather than 'is easier to extract nutrition,' per se. While there may be less grass, there is 'tree hay' if the right trees are chosen for your particular livestock, so your dry matter per acre can still increase overall. There may also be other associated crops for harvest to add to farm resilence...
We are entering a period of Global Cooling comparable to the Maunder Minimum of 1645-1715 and the Dalton Minimum 1796-1820. There were fewer sunspots and less solar radiance. In the UK wheat prices rose as much as 400% in the Maunder Minimum depending on the circumstances in each individual year. But Dr Valentina Zarkhova has noticed that more significant than the slight global cooling is the reduction of the sun's magnetosphere. This allows more cosmic rays (nuclear particles from distant decaying stars) to strike the earth. The New Madrid fault had a major quake during the Maunder Minimum on 12-25-1699. During the Dalton Minimum, the New Madrid fault had 4 quakes on 3 days in 1811-1812. We will also get more cloud cover due to cosmic rays. This will generate more rainfall but not everywhere. The earth's magnetosphere is also being reduced which allows the jet stream to wander about. The US Midwest has been flooded in 2019 but the South has been more dry. Ditto in regions in Africa. The US is getting much shorter growing seasons. I do not have a market garden yet but I would love to create climate battery greenhouses. I have decided to follow the advice of Dr Gerald Pollack whom you interviewed. I will be drinking structured water which is hexagonally shaped just like snowflakes. I will let you know if it improves my health. If it improves my health, I would try it on my plants. Some have claimed a 40% increase in the mass of plants fed structured water.I would have to see that. But the greater promise would be as with humans in improved health. As a side note, I will start with reverse osmosis water before transformation into a structured system. Water from my county water facility tastes awful. Full of fluoride, chlorine and agricultural pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers. Nasty stuff. I always filter the water but I want to do more.
? I don't think that's exactly true. Research shows that higher co2 levels in the air do increase yields. However they make the crops less nutritious. It is agreed among all reasearchers that global warming leads to desastrous events. Maybe you are very lucky to not live where the sea levels are rising or where there are more hurricans and droughts...
It is very important to put CO2 back in soil because it helps soil biomes and assists plant growth. It really helps with traditional food crops as it combines molecularly with soil to 'correct it.' Carbon makes clay soil drain better, perc better, and have better air infiltration. Carbon bonds with sandy soil to forms 'cups' which help retain soil. David the Good's (has the word 'survival' in the name now, don't worry you'll still find it) channel featured a video 2-3 days where it showed the black, sandy-loam soil he's living on now, and compare that to the dirt (almost pure sand) he was living on before he moved 2 months ago. You can see the comparison of lush, deep green vegetation of the current place to the old. Huge difference. David is converting the property to a permaculture/organic ag hybrid. He has done side by side experiments to see what happens with food under different organic/permaculture methods. As conventional ag methods deplete soil quickly; and conventional organic fails to protect soil as well, and leads to eventual degradation; he does do more to protect the soil rather than leave bare ground. Additionally the higher carbon in our atmosphere shades plants. It is different from greenhouse applications where it is at plant level. In the atmosphere the CO2can reach much higher levels and be problematic that way...

Walter is the Best.
You should try get Geoff Lawton on your podcast, he has so much information on water management

Excellent dialogue.
Couldn’t agree more!! Keep up the great work and message!
Amazing interview, transformative, thank you
☝Thank you 🤓

It's good to see someone more informed here.
How to make structured water and deuterium free water cost effectively? Run it through a grassfed cow perhaps?
Well, has the hexagonal water helped? It's been two years...
You can't stablize the climate and it's not to our advantage to lower the CO2. We could use more CO2 in the atmosphere
? I don't think that's exactly true. Research shows that higher co2 levels in the air do increase yields. However they make the crops less nutritious.
