Kek!
Thanks for reposting the reposting of the reposting. Maybe difficult to reconcile for some, but agree with both of you.
Pork is a YUGE issue as the other anon. said. Chinese pork consumption is absolutely off-the-charts. And BigAg has rigged the system so that They can be the only supplier due to the insane regs & associated cost. And the way They farm completely destroys the soil – THINK desertification on the timescale of Iraq (remember - it used to be called The Garden of Eden).
It is totally possible to raise both swine & livestock humanly & as naturally as possible, but also do it in a certain way that it will actually regenerate the soil.
No way that can happen while BigAg controls Farming in this Country to feed the Chinese insane appetites.
(I'm down with eating meat, but they overindulge like they've got a pig machine in the Forbidden City).
BTW, if anyone's listening, we got a major deer overpopulation Problem in the U.S. They are killing all the young trees and preventing forest regeneration. And venison is the leanest meat you can eat – perfect for middle-aged men, especially. Again, the issue is the eco-fascist regulations coming from insane bureaucrats who think They get their meat from Frankenburger machine in the back room somewhere.
Our Land is the Most Valuable asset we possess. Civilizations have risen & fallen across the millenia based on simply the fertility vs. fallowness of their soil. It's about time to take a hard honest look at the farming practices and incentives and how, if not reversed, will turn the Great Plains into the Gobi Desert.
Thanks for reading.
No doubt. You can also throw some pigs onto a barren piece of land, get them to disturb the dirt for a month or so and crap all over, then move them and let the field rest for a season and you've got instant organic fertilized soil, no tilling needed.
Also, there are easy ways to close-loop a medium-to-large sized traditional pig operation and give the pig farmers a residual source of income through compost. All achievable without having to encounter one airy-fairy permaculturalist. And the meat is exponentially more tasty & nutritious.
Rotational grazing FTW. See Joel Salatin/ Polyface Farms, etc. on ScrewTube for more deets.

>>1011801 Totally (love me some goats). Just riffing off the original posting, plus, pork is not going away anytime soon, so just exploring ways to minimize damage and maximize efficiency & quality.
