  • I've been watching a lot of farming related videos. They have made me aware of just how leveraged we are on oil to produce our food.

  • Its funny how in agriculture, every one wants it to go back to day one with organics and small scales. No one protests about the mining, finance or manufacturing etc industries use of new technology, which is hardly without impact on the environment and 'our jobs'. People need to wake up and realise the reason food is so cheap and available is because we have modern agriculture!

  • @chrismuir111 it doesnt take away labor it saves you on fuel chemical seed and time. I work on a farm that had 9 workers before autosteer and it still does after autosteer, its a great leap in farming but thats my opinion

  • Being a farmer, I wouldn't say it really takes jobs away but just makes them easier. like taking fatigue away and it saves lots of money like fuel, water, and chemical costs

  • Do you critiques of standard farming expect anyone to believe you are concerned about other peoples nutrition and jobs when you are so rude disrespectful? The state or organic farming is such that many more would be starving if we depended on Organic farming to supply the food needs of the population. It couldn't produce enough. That isn't too nutritious either. ;)

  • Nice video, but you should try to cut out the tractor and outside noise whenever possible. It is difficult sometimes to hear what you are saying.

    God Bless

  • @Katzenjammer58 How is this "Frankenfood" at its worst? And the whole frankenfood thing is a load of BS too.

  • Efficiency doesn't take the place of nutrition! This is Frankenfood at it's WORST!!!!!!

  • What language is this ?
