Shownotes Transcript

Farmers have two options for weed control: herbicides or tillage. It’s a trade-off – one is not better than the other. In some regions, tillage can be more damaging than herbicides because of soil erosion. There are many options for herbicides – some are harsher, more toxic and more environmentally impactful than others. If you have questions and want details about sustainable agriculture, crop farming, pesticides and herbicides, soil preservation, and other modern farming issues, this episode is for you! Tune in to hear the in-depth, day-to-day practices of a farmer who also happens to be a dietitian.
