First application of a new #CroppingSystem #Resilience #Metric. 30-yr I-States dataset, based on info from @usda_nass and @CTIC_tweet (@RegrowAg). Results suggest that all early resilience gains have been lost and are currently trending down. Details at img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/238f…

The bogus claim that #CornSweat is making the #Midwest more uncomfortable is in the news again. The opposite is true! And replacing productive corn fields with #SolarFarms or #DataCenters would make the #HeatIndex even more insufferable. Details at img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/238f…

#STL North City is in urgent need of restoration and renewal, especially after the May 16 EF3 tornado. Read how #UrbanAg could help bring the needed transformation, just as it has in #Detroit and elsewhere img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/238f…

The #MAHA report on children’s health ignores #FoodSystem complexity and mistakenly focuses on #CropProtectionTools, which help the US lead the world in the production of safe, affordable food. Innovative thinking is urgently needed, not biased AI queries img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/238f…

Would limiting flock size to 1M confer greater #Resilience to US #Egg #SupplyChainswhen it comes to #HPAI? A simple model says yes. Total savings to US consumers since Jan-2022 would have been >$10B, and still climbing. Let's get cracking!
