[CheltenhamJobs]

I wish more farms were sustainable like this. It's also great as it provides so many local jobs.

@phoenixfilmandvideo - I want to take a moment to *thank* you for uploading this video to YouTube over 3 years ago. Here in 2012 my appreciation for Agriculture and Farmers is GROWING the more I think of the fact that Farmers *really* make a difference in the lives of people around the world. With that being said, I'm gonna *promote* your video on Google+. Take care and thanks again for sharing this video with us. Happy New Year!

"farmer" talking in the background about "i do... i do... i do" as his (likely low wage) seasonal farm workers do all the *actual* labor on land stollen from their ancestors. i wish his "niche market" deeply understood this reality, and the insignificance of their purchasing choice among so much social/environmental inequity and food injustice.

[trickboyd]

@ShamarRootsOfSuccess

correct me if I am wrong, but isnt the video showing exactly WHO is doing WHAT work? I mean I know you had the urge to bust on this guy but it is people like him and farmer collectives like this that are our only change to decomission the corporate structure that seems to be status quo! I am a Native American (Lakota Sioux), and I get the bit about the stolen land ... but let me tell you something: There is not a committe of tribes in the U.S. doing anything like this.

[trickboyd]

@ShamarRootsOfSuccess

Nor is there a Mexican official trying to immigrate workers to the US to support ideas like this. Point is, whatever problems your neurotic mind my tend to gravitate to, they are nothing compared to the crisis this country, and its followers (the majority of other industrialized countries) are chest deep in. We are all part of the problem until we all, as a compassionate unit, stand up and DEMAND change in our govt. Ask more of your elected officials!

[kingpoop69]

If everyone set up a tiny gardein in their backyard with orgainc/sustainable systems.... there would be no world hunger or giant corporations controlling everything....

LEARN TO PRODUCE AND BE FRIENDLY WITH ENVIRONMENT...

and life will go on smoothly...

[CelticSouthland]

In the past, farmers who were too greedy to hire American Citizens to work on their farms, sometimes paid a heavy price for that greed!

REAL ORGANIC "COMMUNITY" FARMERS DON'T USE ILLEGAL MEXICANS AS EMPLOYEES YOU SCUMBAG

[GreenIsOurGarden]

Wonderful stuff ! were looking for writers in sustainable agriculture! greenisourgardendotcom

[killforfiend]

Reduction in meat agriculture can help eradicate world hunger and poverty!! It's that simple!!! in the U.S. 70% of grains are fed to Farm Animals, leaving 30% to the people! Help save the World People! just Don't buy much meat! you don't have to be vegetarian or vegan if you don't want to!

[BGreenHVAC]

W have a group of illegals working the farm...They draw welfare and food stamps to all of you hard working tax payers can financially support them and destroy America's economy.

[GreenIsOurGarden]

We have put together a site that showcases aspiring writers in sustainable agriculture. We are particulary interested in the theme of how spirituality (whatever that means to you) can inform sustainability.

You can find us at greenisourgardendotcom

[MotherEarthChats]

Good to know there are people who really care about Mother Earth.

[Lunartechno]

. i hate to say it, i really do, but all of the workers are hispanic, its a curious thing. And working on and with farms is a great thing, its how you get food into your body. Just because you are so dumbed down and dependant on mcgriddle, you people think these jobs are weird, youve just been brainwashed thats all. Farming is a very honorable job, it keeps poeple alive.

[jjs2014]

Growing up on a farm makes you realise just how hard it is to run. Like this guy said, you have to know when to plant the crops and when to take them out, make sure the equipment is running properly. You must also know when the right time is to sell the crops produced. It is hard work! Farmers all over the world will have to keep producing more and more crops as the population increases. So we give a big thank you to all farmers!

[steveshredz]

join my facebook page and sign the 'no to the food safety modernization act of 2010' petition! search it on facebook!

[1984miroslaba]

Could this guy mostly talked about himself.

[MaggiesOrganics]

Very cool video! Makes me want to take up farming for myself

[stubbornVN]

Would sustainable agriculture policy raise the idea that a crop requiring gm modification shouldn't be a crop choice for that area, and should be destroyed to ensure the worlds viable crops? UK potato blight should have it on a worldwide destruction list but instead farmers try to work around it.

[RunescapePins]

cool vid

[imejoehiyalol]

Holy potato batman he said bayzil.

[govindas999]

Mr Subhash Palekar in India is saving the lives of planters with his zero budget farming!!!!

He wrote 3 books from the Vedas about agriculture and now there's no need for fertilisers/dangerous pesticides or tractors....search for it

[crystalfengqian]

thanks a lot for your information.I am in montreal and I will learn agriculture and environment.Your information let me know my future direction.

[impalapez]

@govindas999 Check out the "One Straw Revolution"

[sickoicko12]

@cpsretartedmuch.....if it weren't for white people, the entire world would probably be a shit hole right about now.

[bugsz1]

@sickoicko12 LOL. Wow, I suppose you don't mean the elite fat white men that control the world do you? 

[sidneyx2]

What some people don't realize is that for the amount of work that goes into it, the business of food production doesn't pay very well, most of these people do it because it's in their family, but alot of farmers are selling off their land, or use money from other businesses to support it because it doesn't pay for itself anymore. If fertilizers and chemicals weren't used we would starve, it isn't the farmer's fault.

[PDXMILO]

@sidneyx2 You are so off base. Farmers are poor and selling off land BECAUSE they have bought into the synthetic fertilizers and chemicals model of farming. Direct marketing and diversified crops are making farming more profitable and decent food more readily available. 

[bugsz1]

@sidneyx2 Starve really? You think so? So nobody farmed before fertilizers? How brainwashed are you? Sorry to say, but you believe a lie.

[sidneyx2]

@bugsz1 i'm sorry to say you misunderstand the way the world works. It's true that people farmed before chemicals, obviously fertilizer HAS been part of farming for a long time, but the human population has exploded to a point where it isn't realistic to do away with all chemicals, without a malthusian catastrophy.

[bugsz1]

@sidneyx2 We do not need made from oil fertilizers. The oil is running out. Think outside your box.

[Lunartechno]

@sidneyx2 when food becomes scarce because of the way we've built our society... and it will... agriculture will be one of the best paying sectors int he country

[HobbyDoll]

I produce food for myself and my family and I know it is hard work. That makes me appreciate the producers more and more. Even heavy input highly indusrialized farms are places of some form of environmental stewardship - if we can all recognize that - and the importance of that we can help empower all the producers to happily make changes that EVERYONE benefits from .

[MrCountryBoy181]

@HobbyDoll Thank you!! it is great to hear someone agrees with 'us' farmers

[HobbyDoll]

It was a sad day when a video about sustainable food production sparked agression and hatred.

Producers and consumers (and all those in between) are so intimately linked that it is best (as it is always best) to give each other respect.

[HobbyDoll]

It's scarry that food is such a touch topic for us all. In a healthy community it is the strongest tool for bringing people together. Sharing ideas, successes and failures.

[ZzzINSIGHTzzZ]

Oragnic food is more exspensive and what good is a few organic grown if you don't eat all organic grown Also plenty of Americans care about thing and think about where the food is grow etc. As for urban grocery stores. Do you mean all the poor neighborhoods all across the USA that is filled with all the diff ppl in the USA? BLESSED.. u don't sound like you beleive your own name.. moving right along

[Lunartechno]

@ZzzINSIGHTzzZ if you go to the farmers markey youd know that the food is usually cleaner and is about twice as cheap. although i think it depends on where you live. If you live in rural or close to rural its cheap, but if you live in a big city or around a not so rural area it cost more.

[sjwyuma]

WHAT IS THAT DOG DOING IN THE FIELD!!!! Food safety policies of those evil Industrial farms make us disk areas of fields with dog tracks... and their promotional video has him and the pup walking in the vegetables

Since when did growing food for the 97% of Americans busy tossing rocks at us become evil?

[primitiveform]

Cheap fertilizer.

[PDXMILO]

@sjwyuma Yeah a dog walking though a crop is sooo much more unhealthy than a field sprayed with poison and fertilizers made from petroleum!

[HLCpromow]

The very reason I grow as much as I can I know where its been and what has been put on it Thanks

[coronet67]

Where is this farm- what state?

[Argonaut22j]

That food looks so good!!

[blessedRthemeek]

It is interesting to note, that contrary to what you are saying Americans seldom think about how and where there food is being grown.

It is a very small portion of the population that actually is concerned or has the luxery of deciding what to buy and what not to buy...there are subject to what is available at there inner-city or urban grocery store.

It would be refreshing if the produce growers would quit telling us what we are concerned about, and just only grow healthy nontoxic food...

[blessedRthemeek]

...they should of been doing this the whole time...interesting. I wonder if greed and government handouts had anything to do with the change from sustainable agriculture to deadly food!

Grow our food and keep your mouth shut...if your food is any good we will continue to buy it, if not...your out of buisness, and rightly so.

[sjwyuma]

I sure hate the thought of my produce going to you... And by the way, vegetables don't get Government subsidies. Few things are as dangerous as ignorance, and you are landmark in that department.

[PDXMILO]

@blessedRthemeek This post makes no sense. Really contradictory. By the way most producers grow monocultures and don't tell us anything. It would be refreshing if every producer took the time to tell us the story of the food they grow.
