Farm Crops for farming safe, healthy food and other agriculture that's also safe for the farmers growing it, no corporate industrial seed and pesticide (herbicide, insecticide) marketing. Biodiversity. Natural fertilizer good for dirt, crop, and environment. Urban gardens and plants, even grass.


Hey farmer, farmer, put away that GMO now. Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees. Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone. They sprayed paradise, and put in a cotton field.

Crops that are safe to grow on farms and gardens for healthy food for those eating and growing it. No corporate industrial seed marketing.

Agriculture Survey

Hi! I’m in a conservation class and part of an assignment is gaining public opinion on different agriculture practices/methods. Here’s a link to the survey, it shouldn’t take more than a few minutes. Thanks!

Soil Science survey

For our High School senior engineering project my group is looking into soil testing with a focus on sustainability. The flaws, the uses, regularity, etc...

We created this survey to collect data on farmers from large operations to home growing operations. It would be greatly appreciated if you could fill out this survey and give us any information you can. Sharing this survey with others would also be fantastic.

Beauveria bassiana Pellets

Hi there. Long story short, I'm looking for Beauveria bassiana Pellets, preferably in bulk. I am trying to treat a large area of soils and heard things the best option. All I can find is liquid and powder. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Is gathering food even supposedly easy and common stuff like fruits, nuts, and vegetables much harder than people assume?

Went to a strawberry farm today and I was so surprised how tired I got after filling up a crate of over 50 mini boxes of strawberry. Legs are sore and arms feel like I lifted heavy weights!

So I'm wondering. Despite all the ho ha about living off the land by picking out stuff outside in the wild like fruits, vegetables, and nuts thats so common in apocalypse fiction and survivalist discussion boards, is gathering foods outside much much much harder than people assume/ i mean what I got was from a modern organized farms and the physical labor alone surprised me so I'm really wondering how much harder it would be in societies that did not know farming esp nomads and frequent travelers?

human nutrient deficiencies and Zone 6-7

I am trying to figure out which crops would be best to plant within USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6 and 7. The criteria I am considering are;

1 Nutrient composition data for crops/plants viable in Zones 6-7, including concentrations of vitamins, minerals, protein, etc.

2 Typical crop yield data for those regions, in units like tons/hectare.

3 Health/nutrition survey data showing common nutrient deficiencies in the human populations of Zones 6-7.

I tried going to chat gpt to get some of that AI power to find the answer, but it doesn't have access to those data sets blah blah blah....

making money isn't my #1 priority here, suppling a nutritional need is. I'm not wanting to grow lettuce, even if it was a great money maker. I want to grow the things that fill common nutrient gaps in the American diet

soooo, does anyone have these answers or am I about to put in hours of learning to find it myself?
