How Do We Produce Food? Crash Course Geography #43

[@TheGetout04]

This video series really helped me in understanding the "real world" further

Genuinely surprised no mention of drip irrigation. Drip irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface. The goal is to place water directly into the root zone and minimize evaporation. It was invented in Israel

I’m a 4th generation tree fruit farmer here in E Washington State. Anybody here is more than welcome to come out and see what producing apples, pears, cherries and some apricots and peaches. If you do I can hook you up with a box 😁😁😁😁. And we would so much appreciate the acknowledgment of our existence.

[@EyeLean5280]

Thank you so much for all your hard work and your contribution to the food economy!

[@TerryHesticles87]

Actually sounds like a fun job. 2/3 of my favorite fruits right there, too!

[@autonomydepthconsciousness7633]

I often think about the exploitation of labour workers involved when I'm buying produce. I try to buy local even if it's more expensive. Thanks for doing a video like this.

No ethical consumption under capitalism :c only slightly less unethical

[@ancientswordrage]

I've only just noticed the leafy blouse! Epic

[@JohnnyLodge2]

Kind of overlooks the benefits of agrobusiness. Mainly it is much more efficient and therefore requires less land use (no more clearing forests) and less human labor freeing citizens up to pursue something other than subsistence farming

[@lydiamulfinger6781]

I'd love to learn all about American wheat production vs. Wheat production everywhere else. Also, I'm now curious about all things rice production. Since I work at Starbucks it'd also be interesting to learn more about coffee production and the future of its production

[@youremom5463]

That playlist is a trap, it'll never get finished. And sometimes you'll scroll through, and find videos have been deleted, or made private, and you'll never know what exactly was lost

[@cristinaalexe7454]

Eye opening video!

[@chickadeestevenson5440]

I'd love to see stuff on vertical farming and other new stuff

[@aarononeal9830]

FOOD IS NOT CHEAPER WITH CORPORATIONS!

[@larkohiya]

Thank you. Honestly the complicit with current power structures and ideological framing as self evident from crash course have always been annoying. They only ever talk about how things are and not WHY something is from a human perspective of power and will and desire.

[@VashdaCrash]

You're right, they said it's more cost-effective with scale economics and that they can out-compete small farmers with that. They didn't mention the actual prices are up to those sellers, even if one can infer that what was said should lead to an oligarchy. I guess they didn't mention it because that was outside of the subject.

[@ya4gamin772]

First 4 views and first comment, congrats to anyone who has seen this early comment

[@buckemptier]

Why is it something to congratulate peoole on? Sounds more like an idiosyncratic compulsory obsession of yours,

[@GaasubaMeskhenet]

lighten the load on the global trade system by giving people the free time to grow their own. No more evictions from primary residences!!!

[@lakrids-pibe]

Dole, the better snack

[@LePedant]

I'd die if I got transported back 400 years. I have 0 ability to supply food for myself, I'm dependent on stores.

[@MaverickLamborghini]
