What effect will climate change have on what you eat? What impact will it have on small farms and large? In the hour to come, agriculturalist Fred Kirschenmann will guide us through the present and future of agriculture, from how to restore the biological health of the soil to the role of phosphates and dwindling water supplies. At a time when agriculture emphasizes maximum return in minimum time, will the need to keep energy costs manageable require a rethinking of how we grow and consume food? We’ll look at the future of sustainable agriculture.
