Ear to the Ground 416: A Logical Approach

https://landstewardshipproject.org/wp-content/uploads/Ear-to-the-Ground-No.-416.mp3

Myron Sylling approaches farming from a no-nonsense, cause-and-effect point of view. So, he asks, if a reliance on heavy dosages of fertilizer is costing producers money while polluting our water, what’s keeping us from building a less nitrate-tainted farming system? (last in a series on nitrates, farming, and water)
