Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 How we grow our food has a profound effect on the nutrients in our food, and the health benefits of those nutrients. The quality of the soil on farms and ranches affects the health of crops, and the health of crops affects the health of animals. We can’t ignore the soil when we consider what we put on our plates. -> The soil is the starting point for foods that come from the land, and a groundswell of evidence points to an underappreciated factor contributing to food quality: the health of the soil on farms and ranches. #2 The quality of the soil on farms and ranches affects the health of crops, and the health of crops affects the health of animals. We can’t ignore the soil when we consider what we put on our plates. #3 The soil is the starting point for foods that come from the land, and a groundswell of evidence points to an underappreciated factor contributing to food quality: the health of the soil on farms and ranches. #4 Modern farming practices do not necessarily deliver the nutrition or animal welfare that many consumers associate with organic food. There are many reasons beyond the kitchen to care about how we grow our food, from downstream water pollution to the well-being of those who work on farms.
