Histoire
Have you ever desired, deep within your soul, to make a comfortable full-time living from a farming enterprise? Too often people dare not even vocalize this desire because it seems absurd. It's like thinking the unthinkable. After all, the farm population is dwindling. It takes too much capital to start. The pay is too low. The working conditions are dusty, smelly and noisy: Not the place to raise a family. This is all true, and more, for most farmers.

Histoire
Fossil fuels and livestock grazing are often targeted as major culprits behind climate change and desertification. But Allan Savory, cofounder of the Savory Institute, begs to differ. The bigger problem, he warns, is our mismanagement of resources. Livestock grazing is not the problem; it's how we graze livestock. If we don't change the way we approach land management, irreparable harm from climate change could continue long after we replace fossil fuels.

Histoire
For decades, it has been nearly universal dogma among environmentalists and health advocates that cattle and beef are public enemy number one. But is the matter really so clear? Hardly, argues environmental lawyer turned rancher Nicolette Hahn Niman in her new book, Defending Beef. The public has long been led to believe that livestock, especially cattle, erode soils, pollute air and water, damage riparian areas, and decimate wildlife populations. In Defending Beef, Hahn Niman argues that cattle are not inherently bad for either the Earth or our own nutritional health.

The restoration agriculture system described in this award-winning book works! It is possible for humans to produce staple foods using perennial agricultural ecosystems that actually improve the quality of the environment. This can be done on a backyard, farm, or ranch scale and is needed right now - on a global scale. Restoration Agriculture explains how we can have all of the benefits of natural, perennial ecosystems and create agricultural systems that imitate nature in form and function while still providing for our food, building, fuel, and many other needs.

Call it "Zen and the Art of Farming" or a "Little Green Book", Masanobu Fukuoka's manifesto about farming, eating, and the limits of human knowledge presents a radical challenge to the global systems we rely on for our food. At the same time, it is a spiritual memoir of a man whose innovative system of cultivating the earth reflects a deep faith in the wholeness and balance of the natural world. As Wendell Berry writes in his preface, the book "is valuable to us because it is at once practical and philosophical."

"What should we have for dinner?" To one degree or another, this simple question assails any creature faced with a wide choice of things to eat. Anthropologists call it the omnivore's dilemma. Choosing from among the countless potential foods nature offers, humans have had to learn what is safe, and what isn't. Today, as America confronts what can only be described as a national eating disorder, the omnivore's dilemma has returned with an atavistic vengeance.

The problem of agriculture is as old as civilization. Throughout history, great societies that abused their land withered into poverty or disappeared entirely. Now we risk repeating this ancient story on a global scale due to ongoing soil degradation, a changing climate, and a rising population. But there is reason for hope. David R. Montgomery introduces us to farmers around the world at the heart of a brewing soil health revolution that could bring humanity's ailing soil back to life remarkably fast.

By explaining the lean system for identifying and eliminating waste and introducing efficiency in every aspect of the farm operation, The Lean Farm makes the case that small-scale farming can be an attractive career option for young people who are interested in growing food for their community. Working smarter, not harder, also prevents the kind of burnout that start-up farmers often encounter in the face of long, hard, backbreaking labor. Lean principles grew out of the Japanese automotive industry, but they are now being followed by progressive farms around the world....

When we use chemical fertilizers, we injure the microbial life that sustains plants and then become increasingly dependent on an arsenal of toxic substances. Teaming with Microbes offers an alternative to this vicious circle and details how to garden in a way that strengthens, rather than destroys, the soil food web. You’ll discover that healthy soil is teeming with life - not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.

Dirt, soil, call it what you want, it's everywhere we go. It is the root of our existence, supporting our feet, our farms, our cities. This fascinating yet disquieting book finds, however, that we are running out of dirt, and it's no laughing matter. An engaging natural and cultural history of soil that sweeps from ancient civilizations to modern times, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations explores the compelling idea that we are, and have long been, using up Earth's soil. Once bare of protective vegetation and exposed to wind and rain, cultivated soils erode bit by bit, slowly enough to be ignored in a single lifetime but fast enough over centuries to limit the lifespan of civilizations.

One of the best books I have ever read!!!!
- Écrit par Utilisateur anonyme le 2020-08-15
Description
From Christian libertarian farmer Joel Salatin, a clarion call to listeners to honor the animals and the land and to produce food based on spiritual principles.
Joel Salatin is perhaps the nation's best known farmer, whose environmentally friendly, sustainable Polyface Farms has been featured in Food, Inc. and Time magazine. Now, in his first audiobook written for a faith audience, Salatin offers a deeply personal argument for earth stewardship and calls for fellow Christians to join him in looking to the Bible for a foodscape in line with spiritual truth. Salatin urges Christians to rethink America's allegiance to cheap corporate food that destroys creation in its production, impoverishes third world countries, and supports oligarchical interests. He wonders why Christians ignore and even revel in unhealthy eating habits and factory farming that runs counter to God's design. With scripture and biblical stories, Salatin presents an alternative and shows listeners that in appreciating the pigness of pigs, we celebrate the glory of God.

Another excellent book/audio. Joel always has something rewarding to say whether he’s sharing his farming philosophies or his faith.
Thanks, Joel, for another revealing viewpoint on life and how we live it. Folks, regardless of your beliefs, there is useful knowledge in this book.

I just like listening to Joel!
I'm not the target audience, buy I always appreciate the understanding I'll achieve by listening to someone who doesn't agree with me.
in this case, I agree with Joel's mission to encourage Americans to take their food more seriously, learn about it and support the good food that comes from good sustainable practices.
unfortunately in this day and age, many self-described Christians do not live by teachings of the Bible and the example of Jesus Christ, thus Joel as a consistent man of faith has to write this book to educate his fellow Christians.
People of deep faith are very helpful to the survival and ascendancy of human civilization, but people of faith just in name and not with the full understanding cause destruction with their limited understanding of their faith. (this is very general and applies to Muslims and people of other religions as well)
if I turn Christian one day, I'll credit it Joel Salatin! :)

Give it a chance!
Now that I have finished listening to this book, I loved it. In the beginning chapters, I nearly returned it because it was not so much a pricking of the conscience as a stabbing, but it got much better as he turned from “everything you’re doing is wrong” to “here are ways we can all do better, and why!” This book relies heavily on Biblical counsel and wisdom, so non-Christians can take it for what it’s worth to them. It is still an excellent resource for ways we can all do better in caring for our world, whether we believe it’s just a chunk of rock hurtling through space waiting for the sun to wink out, or we believe it is the greatest of creations, and the reason for existence. Really, give it a chance.

Incredible and convicting
I already supported a food system like he lays out as the ideal but this book both solidified my motives to continue to do this (aka quit cheating here and there) as well as inspired me to increase my earth stewardship (maybe get some backyard chickens?). Amazing book by Salatin - I can’t recommend it more for all Christians.

Nail on the Head
Just like the author stated at the beginning, this book was definitely a breath of fresh air. I have been touching on these subjects for the past few years behind our pulpit, and will continue to do so. Most importantly, I pray for strength to be a doer and not just a hearer. I have agreed with and admired Joel's farming practices for years and hope to implement them on a much smaller scale on my property.

Must read, how to get the planet and you healthy
Joel Salatin has a deep knowledge of agriculture and how to improve the future. He is a master of the English language and treats the listener to new vocabulary and in depth learning experiences. All agriculturalist must read, every person even the most ordinary person that is not agriculture must read. In fact if you eat food you should read (listen) to this book, and take to heart some of the great advise that you will find within the book. The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs is artifully and skillfully read and performed by Joel himself. Enjoy listening and I hope you take some action afterwards.

Incredible!
I will be listening to this many times over. Down to Earth wisdom rooted in a faith in God. Amazing insight into the Humaness of Humans by looking at the Pigness of Pigs.
This is a clarion call to wake up from the corporate stupor of excess and exploitation. Truly refreshing and inspiring insight. This isn't a step by step of how to farm but it provides a foundation for a better life.
