The Food Race - Pesticides, GMOs and Organic Farming on the Test
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- The world’s supply of food becomes more and more imbalanced. One billion people are starving and every second a child dies of hunger and its consequences. At the same time, the world’s food production is at its peak level, and the demand for meat is growing not only in the industrial world.
How can it be that up to 30% of the world’s harvest is ruined by plant diseases and pests, and less than half our harvest ends up on our plate? This film reveals the causes and impacts of this imbalance and tries to find solutions how we can get prepared to feed up to nine billion people in the next 35 years.
Director: Ute de Groot
Stop listening to the government and big corporations, go back to the old ways. Greed has and will be the end of humankind. If everyone would start a garden on their property, food shortage would be substantially stopped.
Spot on.
exaaactly!!!! Govt acts like its their job to"feed" us.
It's important to avoid eating processed foods and buy organic, grassfed or free-range foods as much as possible; to support sustainable agriculture, wherever the consumer lives.
meat laboratory
we must allow pigs too to exist and other animals which is alot more peaceful and bring laboratory meat
Label says “Orginic”; however, it may not be Organic!
When you continually use chemicals to kill pests and fungi, those pests become more resilient.
Similar to antibiotics.
GMO crops are still susceptible to disease, but seed output is greatly reduced.
Food waste is also a huge problem, we have enough food to feed the planet. If only feeding the poor were a money maker; then everyone would be doing it!
Food waste is a huge problem! Thanks for pointing that out.
Animals are consuming 70-80% of all the proteins grown on earth using pesticides for the profits of a few. Why do we keep doing the same thing over and over and getting the same results? ="Insanity" If you think COVID was bad it will be minor in comparison to the antimicrobial disease coming. Meat is a carcinogen and caused every pandemic for hundreds of years! How many clues do we need?
The one GMO crop allowed in India is not a food but cotton. It's certainly not more susceptible to disease and seeds output being reduced is an advantage, not a defect. I also don't know why cotton seed output would be reduced.
People should grow their fruits and vegetables. You can share with your friends, family and neighbors.
I agree.
Organic, old way methods are the best for generations. Protect the water and soil by using regenerative agriculture, NOT chemicals. Chemical companies can monopolize the market and increase price of chemicals and cause a famine when they increase chemical prices hi h is passed down to the consumer when farmers have to Increase their prices.
"Old way methods"? Billions would starve.
The problem with GMO flood tolerant rice.. is whether the farmers have to keep buying the seeds from the GMO supplier?
A lot farmers in india were committing suicide getting caught up in that debt trap cycle.
They weren't allowed to self seed due to the intellectual property claimed by these GMO Corporations
There is no GM flood tolerant rice, and rice is flood tolerant naturally anyway, flooding is key to high yield in rice.
You might want to learn about rice and then rewatch this.
@@timtation5837 or you should learn about rice and gmos.
Suicide is highest in farming of all occupations. Sad.
@@arnaldobellucci9033 yes rice grows in flooded fields.. But this is talking about when the water goes higher than the whole rice plant and completely submerges it for many days. A lot of rice crops have been lost this way.
This is what this university GMO rice has been developed for.
I still don't fully trust GMO crops because they inevitably need pesticides to accompany them.
The best way to ensure healthy crops is build the soil substructure for health resilience.
Animal Agriculture and dairy is subsidized thousands of times more than fresh organic fruits and vegetables. If the scandalous politicians and governments would flip this highly processed industry (meat and diary) on it's head and stop feeding the problem that so many continue to support it would be a great start! Our food choices from meat, dairy, and processed crap is the largest problem!
Organic farmers are farmers and get the same consideration.
unfortunately, they talk snd show little about pesticides and GMOs,and one shouldn't be surprised why peple,including children, suffer from oncology. Thanks foryour video.
Very educational yet free of charge 💖keep it up ❤Free Documentaries ❤
Please DO NOT use the poisons
Where I live in the Philippines most farmers use roundup to kill the grass, every 3 months. I advise them they are destroying their soil biology, contaminating their waterways and destroying their health, but most like the easy way.
I cut the grass every 3 months, which provides nutrients to the soil. More work, but much better results in the longer term.
Man is his own worst enemy.
As a farmer in developing countries organic food was luxury, lower to middle class hoping cheap organic it's such a bullshit when government giving away subsidies to catch up production target.
Hanya mereka yang tidak pernah menanam dan merawat tanaman yang menentang penggunaan pestisida.. tidak semudah berbicara, untuk menghasilkan buah dan sayuran yang bisa di konsumsi seluruh umat manusia.. betapa sulitnya mengendalikan hama pertanian..
The world needs more Natural Homestead Food Forests & Permaculture - not these “ modern farming practices with chemicals fertilizer & pesticides & GMO seeds. 👏🏻
Permaculture is just a con…. Permaculture tries to take credit for old practices that have been around for decades/centuries…
Sepp Holzer didn’t invent the techniques he wrote about, he learned them and then passed them on. It’s amazing how many permaculture dorks are clueless about the very thing they are zealots for. While many of those techniques are decent, they are only as good as your understanding of them and very few have that understanding… 99.99% of people that claim they are doing Hugelkultur are just doing chop and drop and calling it Hugelkulture… If the mound isn’t 2 to 3 meters tall, it’s not Hugelkulture… It’s a method of composting large logs, and just like all composting, size is critical for success.
Permaculture food forests are not forests, they are frigging orchards with companion plantings… Calling them a forest is a joke… Permaculture sucks… Organic farming/homesteading is really good, but permaculture is just a friggin con/grift.

Regenerative ag restoring ecological functioning on agric landscapes is the way to go.
Google Gabe Brown. A lot of presentations by him on UA-cam and also podcasts in which he features.
Also the book 'Dirt to Soil' and movie 'Common Ground'.
And Rick Clark, organic regenerative farmer in Indiana USA.
Thanks for this video
There is much less to Gabe Brown than meets the eye.
There are such things as natural bug repellent.

100% organic 100% of the time… Because I don’t eat poisoned food…
The amount of cognitive dissonance needed to eat poisoned food is something I will never possess. It’s a level of crazy/lazy that I just don’t understand.
Organic farmers spray pesticides including a couple of synthetic ones.
Yahweh God created everything in this world perfect & He meant for the cycle of life to be perfect like organic farming not using harmful chemicals pesticides that the water run into rivers & contaminate the rivers thus the pond & sea life but natur al fertilisers like cow dung is not harmful & enrich the eco system & is free 😄 people must always remember what goes around comes around 😮 so we must also care For the environment plants & animals & insects cos we all need each other to survive & thrive on this earth as God intended
The future of organic agriculture is JADAM
Good vlog good interviews around the world on 🚜🐄🌾farming techniques technology hybrids, planning on to buy land start cultivation, farming from past 10 years of now still money making me worries... Greetings from banglore gracias.
I’ve bought a tractor and planning to start something, I register some small scale land so yeah 🚜
So, the farmer can't independent about seed because they must buy seed from company. How about the power of control the farmer?
Very knowledgeable documentary,
Appreciable.
From Ranchi, India.
Yes. I support 'grow your own' as much as possible. However, I am also lucky enough to have shops all around me stocked with fruit from all parts of the world. In terms of protecting ones health then I do believe it is important to buy and eat organically grown food whenever it is available.
you are too dependently on others what they produce , find a way to prroduce , vertical farm
Organic is not healthier, safer, or better for the environment.
Try producing your own product and you will see how hard is to not use synthetic pesticides.
BAYER, you need to start from this company. Look at the real problem, and try if theres still solution.
so are we supposed to trust the food when they got to where suites for pesticides? hmmmm
Farmers are legally allowed to poison food… Literally… They spray poison directly on the food people eat.. It’s crazy.
@@timtation5837 And that food is safe to eat.
I don't think that its all about organic or non organic. The seeds that farmers plant are hybrid seeds. Most, if not all, fruits and vegetables have lost their taste, minerals and vitamins because of these hybrid seeds. I learnt the other day that a kilo of tomato seeds can coast €400000! What is going on in this world
life is comfortable and peaceful.
Jale! Speaks sense. Dont use pesticides.

the more frequently you spray the more likely you have an organic farm ..You can spray once strong fungicide instead of 10 times weaker one pro organic one.People in cities do not understand that to be able to have crops you need to spray as frequent as possible than you will avoid mistakes all types like by correct dosage ...Chemicals are cheap but work is expensive.Organic farming also needs spraying and using fungicide like sulphur or cooper
Get updated. Farming goes beyond organic farming nowadays. New paradigms are already in practice. Regenerative agriculture, Agriforestry, Syntropic agriculture. Working with nature, with natural processes not with outside inputs. Check out Ernst Gotsch for instance.
@@andresamplonius315 Niche methods that are ok but will not feed the world unless half the population goes back to farming.
What an amazing dress the farmer was wearing!
😂
Im for crops just not food crops
The race against anything Big corporations Always win this has become THE LAW.
When did anybody think it was a good idea to poison the food we eat
Our food is safe.
organic is the way...
All this people see problem with no enough food to feed people. I see problem we all wasteing to much food. System teach us buy more bigger chipper end of is expire and waste... wondering how many %food is waste
WE have to solve this problem, WE have to feed the planet. Who is this "WE" they speak of?
As if people are too stupid to be able to feed themselv.
1 Timothy 6:10 KJV - For the love of money is the root of all evil:
Thats why i never buy salad vegetables , or any other vegs . that i know they spray alot of pesticides .
Relax, pesticide residue levels are way below even the maximum safe level.
ban gmo, use organic

The need for population control is a must.
Soylent Green!
Ending greedy systems of monopoly manipulation will help alleviate poverty which has a direct impact on population explosion..
People have more children when they have low education and limited choices.
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Genomics 🧬 is the key for the future…. And less reliance on chemicals to maintain food production.
Genomics is still crap science at this time… And the first GMO crop was planted in 1995, it has only been around for 29 years.
The current tech is a crap shoot… CRISPR can insert the desired gene, but it is sloppy as hell and also inserts more than 100 other genes at the same time. There is no telling what consequences could arise without long term study… While I am all for continuing the study and research, there should be zero open air growing of GMO plants, and it should all be confined to labs and controlled greenhouses.
Genomics might have something to offer in the distant future, but it has a long way to go before it can be considered safe or reliable.
Rubbish and denies the reality of efficiency in providing food for all. Right wing bias for totalitarian ideologies
Why you are is a black continent
You got to believe in God and you got to pray everyday
Shut up
That wont help, but it may make you feel better
Everyday
One may believe in God, or one may not, but it's obvious that God does not interfere in the affairs of man. 30,000 dead Palestinians, 7000 of whom are buried under rubble, most of whom are women and children, is proof of that.
laboratory meat
f.o. ! NO MEAT and certainly not that cancerhorror of the we f!
