    As a child growing up we learned about that. It was called the Dust Bowl and it was a man-made catastrophe. It was in all the papers.

    Tilling is Killing. We don't need to farm this way. Use cover crops.

    Averaging a century of soil loss is meaningless. Farming methods have changed drastically over that time, and erosion rates along with them.

    We need more inflation, vaccine firings, lockdowns, stimulus checks, CRT, illegals, canceled pipelines, higher gas prices and less baby formula. Let’s go Brandon!

    Oh come on, you can't even add the source of the research in writing? That's a vital information, and it allows viewers to find the background information on how the study was conducted and what the researchers have to say .
    Wouldn't even have cost you extra times and risk the viewers to zap to something with more explosions.

    too bad this story wasnt taken a bit further and addressed how topsoil erosion affects climate change. why don't the government agencies do anything about this?

    Lemme guess Shepdragster, there must be a tax that can be implemented to stop this? Maybe a new czar? More proof no doubt that global warming/cooling/change needs to be dealt with seriously, regardless of costs or any common sense. Go Brandon!

    Try promoting regenerative agriculture, feeding the ground, no dig farming. This isn't even complicated. Monsanto sold the world gmo products. You reap what you sow.

      As long as it doesn't wash out to sea there's no issue. The rivers and streams can be filtered/dredged and the soil recovered.

      Yeah this is just more fear mongering. I'm interested to know what individual family farms who have been farming on the same land for like 150 years have to say about this

  • @michaellarson8913
    @michaellarson8913 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Soil washes off the high ground and stops in the low ground. It's not lost. No-till farming just doesn't work on very good farm ground. Works best on the poorest and steepest ground that is prone to errosion which maybe shouldn't be farmed to start with. Errosion happens on untilled grasslands also, you just don't notice it

    • @Monaleenian
      @Monaleenian 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly. In the case of erosion caused by rainfall, the soil doesn't go far. It can be retrieved from wherever it settled downstream and brought back to where it came from.
