Joel Salatin: War Stories from the Local Food Front

The Broken Food System

A conference held in Australia about the politics of food issues and their impact on small sustainable farms.  Joel Salatin talks about the broken food system established shortly after the end of WWII.  With the large scale production of NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) went the normal process of creating compost on farms.  Ushering in chemical dependent farms and industrial food at artificially low prices.  


The rest of the video lives on another site and will open a new window.
