This is true, it’s great for supporting life. North Korea does it and their intestinal worm population exploded 🪱

Meat stays perpetually in your stomach and intestines, no need for "abundance", truly the best Korea!

Don't let big farm Corp see this. Heaven forbid we use soil regeneration and crop rotation along with natural fertilizer....
Just keep pumping that nitrogen and profits right?? Then we have to fall back on gmo soy with vaccines included because it's the only food left...right??...
Clown world. 🤡

What are the vaccines for?
Edit: I’m genuinely asking, the soy + vaccines confused me

If you’ve been using Reddit for more than an hour there is literally no way you haven’t seen someone say that.

According to the FAO, soil erosion "occurs naturally under all climatic conditions and on all continents, but it is significantly increased and accelerated by unsustainable human activities (up to 1,000 times) through intensive agriculture, deforestation, overgrazing and improper land use changes.
Skill issue. Maybe stop the shitty practices and things will get better? Incentivizing profits over sustainability and then finding out it causes problems, is indeed idiocracy.

They're raising prices already before anything bad happens and then will raise them again. People just going to stay stealing more

I’ve been worried about this for 10+ years, though I thought we had another 50 years before we’d start seeing a problem.

The soil isn't the issue regarding prices. Lack of field workers in 2025 will be the American problem.

I saw a documentary about this stuff called Soylent Green. People were rioting just to get some. We should really look into that.

This article coming from Newsweek is just proof enough that this is ALL just “more corporate propaganda to justify high food prices. Corporate entities are saying that the soil is at risk. “AT RISK”. Doesn’t say that the soil is not producing. It says that the soil is at “risk” of not producing. Well, duh! That doesn’t mean that you should just continue raising food prices on people just because you think there’s a “risk” that the soil might not be as productive as it has been in the past.
I’ll guarantee you that you will have less produce from the soil if you use less seed! Duh!
If you don’t plant anything at all, I guarantee you nothing will grow! Duh!
So what are natural fertilizers for, again?! Hmmmm….DUH!
What a bunch of greedy little *UNTS they ALL are! None of this is stuff is true and it’s just a bunch of more lies and scare tactics so that corporations can continue raising prices on consumers without any oversight or explanation as this is there explanation and their justification for continuing to do so unabate.
…and then these corporations wonder why corporate CEO’s are starting to get stalked, threatened and targeted. Society has its breaking point and corporations should pump the brakes and slow their roll. Just saying. 🤷🏻♂️
