Isn’t it some form of renewables? Growing food with the sun.

Though I prefer to just water edible wild stuff occasionally instead of putting to much energy in growing it intentionally.

Have you ever tried growing... anything? Do you have any idea what that's like without chemical pesticides and fertilizers?

There's a reason agriculture used to occupy most of people's time.

[–] head_socj@midwest.social 2 points 23 hours ago (6 children)

That's a complete mischaracterization. Intensive mono cropping is time and labor intensive because you have to factor in inevitable losses in crop yield (due to blight, pests, etc.) plus the labor costs of harvesting a single crop that all matures at once. The costs of soil nutrition are also exacerbated because monocropping extracts nutrients from the soil with very little return (there's a lot of hubbub about rotational cropping with clover and things like that, but it's not a long-term solution, especially when you're bleeding money for having a field go fallow)

Building up soil diversity is 100% about working with nature to build crop and soil diversity, and letting natural processes accumulate to produce optimal growing conditions. The issue is it's not very scaleable, and so grumpy Westerners and urbanites toss it aside because they don't want to actually grow the food, they just want to feel good about buying it

Yeah. The problem with capitalism is that if you're not willing to fuck things up for short-to-medium term benefit before moving onto the next thing, you'll go out of business to someone who is.
