I was pleased to hear about this. I was also pleased as to the way this money is going to be used to help farmers who *want* to transition to regenerative. (In other words it won't be shoved down their throats as a "you must" type of thing) Personally, I wish every farmer would jump on this transition program but some, unfortunately, will choose to keep using non-traditional methods of using huge amounts of toxins on their crops and soil. *But*, if those farmers start seeing the success of other farmers who have transitioned to regenerative, they will eventually come over to the traditional side. It took us about 70 years to destroy our soil and con farmers (my family included back in the 70s) into spraying everything in site with chems... it will take some time to get things back on track. The good thing is, the earth is absolutely amazing when it comes to fixing itself. Just like with our bodies, when we start giving the earth the things it needs, it recovers. It takes some years to rebuild soil and get those beneficial enzymes, bacteria, etc back... but it does happen and then Katy bar the door... production goes up and health starts to improve (for the farmers, their animals and, ultimately, the public).
I’m a tree farmer. We don’t spray but the chem-trails being spewed out of aircraft are polluting our soils, killing our beneficial bacteria and getting into our water shed. What can we do?

Thank God! It’s been a long time coming, I hope they keep the ball rolling.
