Dr. James White - Rhizophagy, Seeds and Food Security

iCow Webinar Feb 2024

[@jamesrichey]

I was watching Christina Jones presentations, and I listened to a John Kempf podcast. Both mentioned James White , so I went looking for him and found this presentation. I'm just a backyard gardener trying to learn how to grow nutritious food.

This is so Relevant as we work towards SDGs....food security

Excellent presentation❤️🐸Growing food using pollutants and other biological toxins is toxic to all life and the leading driver to our chronic disease🐸Functional farming will lead the way out🐸❤️thank you Dr. White

Good for regenerative agriculture

This was absolutely outstanding! Thank you 🙏🏿!!!

At Going to Seed we grow and share open pollinated multivariety seeds, creating modern landraces resistent to climate chaos and local conditions. Soil biome, rhizophagy, cover crops and perma culure techniques tie needly in. That's where this top documentary was mentioned. Best i've seen.

this was fantastic, thank you

Excellent presentation to learn about science behind the Natural farming

Thank you for an excellent talk, James and Sue 🙏🏽🙏🏽
How does growing that weed-suppressing corn affect future non-corn crops ?
On my allotment I put any moss i find on the compost; it makes a beautiful silky material that never gets soggy. I also put fresh moss in my hugel pits and wish i had access to more 😅. No liverwort though; that proves to be too strong a survivor, clever little plant.
Am finding a worm cast liquid spray very useful for peach leaf curl, just two applications.
Also using a weak solution of worm cast liquid on bought seeds; seed saving is tricky as too many different veg varieties are being grown on neighbouring allotment plots which means i still have to buy seeds of 'dubious' treatment. But: i allow many veggies to self-seed, and it's a joy to see how they thrive.
I also avoid using mains water.
Artificial growth aids originated in the military realm, so no surprise that it's all about killing.
Have had the excellent books Teaming with nutrients, and Teaming with microbes, didn't know there are three others, ordering right away! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

@@icow285 thank you; will do as soon as i get a chance.

[@CreedmoorFury]

Great show Su!

[@user-lm6fj9gt5u]

Great idea but difficult to manage big tracks of land

[@billiverschoore2466]

Maybe start by rebuilding soils on part of your what sounds like big acreage? And get good live seeds of course, until you can save your own ((bearing in mind that you want to avoid growing possible interbreeders apart). Your produce will be far more nutritious than that from conventional farms.

50:50 - In reference to point #1on slide. I'd be interested if there are naturals systems that have nutrient cycling in through water?
