So after the initial podcast about monoculture farming then diving into an introduction about permaculture, I wanted to learn more about monoculture farming.

So here’s a scary finding! Approximately 75 percent of the world’s crop varieties have been lost over the last 100 years as the result of soil depletion. They’ve found that this time frame corresponds roughly to the beginning of monoculture farming, which is dated back to 1901. Hmm? Anything related there?

Here are some of the studies and articles:

• Let's Talk About Glyphosate
• Comparative environmental impacts of glyphosate and conventional herbicides when used with glyphosate-tolerant and non-tolerant crops.
• Roundup contamination 'unpreventable', world-first glyphosate research shows
• Toxicology and human health risk assessment of polyethoxylated tallow amine surfactant used in glyphosate formulations

Let's chat:
