Big Ag Destroys Farms
Industrial agricultural has made our food supply entirely dependent on fossil fuels and, by substituting technological "solutions" for human work and care, has virtually destroyed the cultures of husbandry (imperfect as they may have been) once indigenous to family farms and farming neighborhoods.
Please read this until you have it memorized:
Industrial agricultural has made our food supply entirely dependent on fossil fuels.
Industrial agriculture (Big Ag for short) grows food primarily for the highest bidder. The highest bidder is always a corporation that processes crops into non-nutrient-dense food. That is, they cook the life right out of what could be perfectly good food.
Could it be because they grow it with fossil fuel derived chemicals? This food has chemical residue that is not good for you and yet remains poorly understood. All we really know is food produced with fossil fuels isn't any good for you.
I could go on and on and on listing all the reasons why boxed food is causing a health epidemic in this country. I could list all of the consequences it has and will have on the health care industry and Big Ag farms. But let this warning suffice: the days of Big Ag farms are numbered. Actually, they passed it along time ago as any farm that depends on fossil fuels will tell you that, like a drug addict, the farm requires more and more to produce less and less of non-nutrient-dense food.
