Posted : 17 Feb, 2024 04:00 PM -the industrial farming system is anything but a lean, mean food-producing machine. In 1940, the average U.S. farm produced 2.3 calories of food energy for every calorie of fossil fuel energy it used. By 1974, that ratio was 1:1, according to Richard Manning, writing in his book Against the Grain. These days, the calories-to-calories ratio is more like 3:1- https://www.mepartnership.org/counting-calories-in-agriculture/ (In other words...'farming' is being made to be less and less efficient!) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Four firms control 85% of the beef packing market; 82% of soybean processing is controlled by four firms.33 The top four food retailers sold almost 35% of America’s food in 2019, compared to only 15% in 1990.34 The EPA estimates that 30%-40% of the current food supply was lost as waste, 50% more than in 1970.25,26 More food waste reaches landfills than any other material. This waste accounted for roughly 22% of the municipal solid waste stream in 2018 and represents a loss of $450 and around 350 pounds of food waste per person each year.25,26,27 Farmers account for 1% of the population. Over 60% of these farmers are above the age of 55.2,3 Just 14.5¢ of every dollar spent on food in 2021 went back to the fam; in 1975, it was 40¢.5,6 Large-scale family farms and industrial nonfamily farms account for only 5% of farms, but 63.8% of production (in $). Small-scale family farms represent 89% of U.S. farms, but only 17.8% of production.4 https://css.umich.edu/publications/factsheets/food/us-food-system-factsheet (evil people are 'driving the herd of people' into relying on non-sustainable food management practices) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "When agriculture is disrupted the end result is catastrophic" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrW0M6yXrNc Post Reply
