With our Tax Dollars

Revealed: the US government-funded ‘private social network’ attacking pesticide critics “In 2017, two United Nations experts called for a treaty to strictly regulate dangerous pesticides, which they said were a “global human rights concern”, citing scientific research showing pesticides can cause cancers, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s and other health problems.”

Flour from Regenerative Ag

It’s happening. And at Conservation Grains, we started to mill with our own regeneratively grown grains in 2021. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-01-05/king-arthur-flour-turns-to-farm-in-montana-for-climate-friendly-wheat?utm_source=website&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=copy&ck_subscriber_id=1494754200

Scaling up Regenerative Ag

… The top 5 principles of regenerative agriculture include: These principles are designed to help improve soil health and fertility, produce nutrient-dense foods, increase the land’s ability to filter and retain water, naturally protect against pests, and capture substantial amounts of carbon from the air and store it in the soil. https://www.feedandgrain.com/blogs/feed-grain-pov/blog/15542095/the-role-of-grain-handlers-and-processors-in-the-regenerative-agriculture-revolution

Mycorrhizal Fungi

Mycorrhizal fungi often form mutually beneficial relationships with plants. They trade essential nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen in exchange for carbon, and act as an extended root system, allowing plants to access water they can’t reach. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solutions/2023/10/08/fungi-networks-biodiversity/?utm_campaign=wp_must_reads&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_mustreads

Intentional Farming with Conservation Grains

Driving north from Bozeman to Choteau, the easternmost stretches of Montana’s Rockies casually release from their bouldered inclines and winding passes into a gentler landscape. From Helena onward for 100 miles, vast blankets of cropland and pastures softly billow and ease into the coulees and creeks leisurely shaping the north country. The journey is a surrender to subtler views, a submission to not getting anywhere anytime soon. Choteau itself is bound in all directions by this same expanse. But just miles east of town, amid swathes of predominantly conventionally farmed land, sits a small acreage revered and maintained a bit differently by its owners.

… “I think we really get wrapped around the wrong axles in the whole regenerative agriculture movement. It’s not just about better practices in a vacuum, it’s about a food system built to sustain those practices.” https://medium.com/@danmiller_steward/old-salt-c903035ed90f
