Googled that so say your putting out 125,000 liters per hectare so if a hectare is 10,ooo square meter you are putting 12.5 liters on each square meter thus 3 gallons OK guess that's beleavable

Figuring 1.3 gal per pig pur day. Thus 100 square meters can be fertilized per pig per year or the farmer interviewed would need 8.5 to 10 hectare to absorb the manure for the 850 hogs he said he has or the 1000 produced per year. Wonder what his field area is?
@jeffbybee52073 жыл бұрын
It still does not work out one hectare feeds about 2.5 pigs yet can accept manure from 10 pigs thus you have to have 4 times the crop land to feed the pigs to produce the manure needed to fertilise one forth of that land to the recommended limit of 150 kilos of nitrogen per hectare. Let alone 200 kg. What have I got wrong?

Thank you DW for another awesome doc. This is such praise worthy top notch stuff in all departments...be it the focus on the subject, the clarity of the proceedings & events around it, presentation of the relevant facts & the responses or the immersive narration this is right up there....this needs to be seen by more people (its a shame the view count is so low & why i didn't get this recommended despite being from 2019). Coming to the subject, i find it appalling that in such developed countries things so basic like this (conflict of interest) are still not addressed & properly protected for in the system. Its so simple, i mean if you join any company today (including the ones with these 'advisory' positions for politicians) one of the first things they would have u undergo training on & certify would be precisely these kinds of conflict of interest policies. Either politicians like them need to be paid well so they don't need a second job & forbidden from doing so or put rules & regulations in place to prevent relevant ones from exercising their vote when the policy in question conflicts with their personal situation. These are too important to rely on just good faith & conscience of a small group of humans, that's a clear single point of failure right there..Its things like this that make me think we truly haven't understood ourselves as a species.

I ate some German "field maize" once. Big mistake it. I felt ill for a couple days. It's ridiculous that the fields are used to grow a food grain, but since they will use it for ethanol they can drench it in herbicides and pesticides. All of which is actually subsidized! This has huge consequences on the natural world. Fields should be used for food, not fuel and they should be held to high environmental standards we are all affected by how our land is used.

Plowing is not sustainable, permanent pasture is. Bare soil loses organic matter rapidly, compost/animal manure application alone won't fix that. So annuals like grains are at best problematic. Apply manure via grazing animals and compost to permanent grasland and the percentage of organic matter will go up binding things like co2 into the soil. No organic matter in the soil = desert, something that is happening to fields all over the world. The old biblical ideal of the land of milk and honey even teaches that.

Justin Thyme Do you eat Palm oil or is it in any way?? I bet you do. Vegans have just as much invested in hurting the environment as the big factories do. You know why?? Because the whorls can’t feed humans on just vegetables it is impossible without fertilizers. Big AG is just as bad. Go look where and what they do for palm oil. The kill people run people out of their homes and burn down the rain forest for it. You make up?? What do you think is in that lip stick you or whoever your family wears. Vegans like you not only attack big farms like this but big farming makes you guys think small organic farmers like me are just the same. My soil nutrition comes from multiple types of bugs that break down waste and I make my own fertile dirt to supplement the ground. I rotate crops and my animals. My animals get baths massages they get better food then I do. And vegans like yourself and the PEDA compare is to these big AG companies who are doing the most damage. Look at how many people there are and then look at how much land is needed to feed them on a vegetable diet. You won’t be a vegan after you find out where your vegetable really come from. Some of them are just label organic to sell more.vegans and everyone else in this arguement never looks at all the facts
