2022 was a year of unpredictability for agriculture, with droughts, floods, volatile weather, kinks in the supply chain, inflation, and labor shortages. Along with the challenges came advancements in Controlled Environmental Agriculture (CEA) technology allowing more crops to be grown indoors while minimizing risk. CEA covers a wide range of crops grown in greenhouses and vertical farms - from floriculture to fruits and vegetables to cannabis and hemp. This week we have a special edition of Green Sense Show where we meet the CEA press to look back on the CEA industry in 2022 and what we can expect to see in 2023. Host Robert Colangelo has a candid discussion with representatives from three leading publications that make up the CEA Press: Jennifer Marston, Senior Reporter AgFunder, Brian Sparks, Senior Editor of Greenhouse Grower, and Chris Higgins, Founder of Urban Ag News.
Guest: Janeen Wright and Brian Sparks, Meister Media publishers Dr. Peter Konjoian and Michelle discuss takeaways from GROW Executive Summit with Janeen Wright and Brian Sparks, two editors for Meister Media Worldwide. This year, the conference brought an interactive schedule on labor, profitability and the supply chain. Positive feedback was received on the topics, size, and participation of guests and kudos was given to the agriculture industry as a whole for finding new ways to get information from diverse voices to growers. We also hear an inside perspective on how and why the conference was built and what to expect for next year.
It was very sad to hear of the passing of Brian Sparks a few months ago. Brian was a guest on the show a few years ago and we had a wonderful conversation about his book ‘Positive Impact Golf' and the video he became famous for called ‘The Easiest Swing in Golf'. Today we get chance to listen to his brother Philip Sparks who is carrying on his marvellous legacy and has created a wonderful online community called ‘The Easiest Swing Club' The video Brian produced a number of years ago called ‘The Easiest Swing in Golf' was a real one off. No instruction, no fancy camera work just Brian doing his thing and swinging the club in a totally effortless and relaxed way. The video has had hundreds of thousands of views. People got in touch with Brian from all over the world. The video had a lasting impact. Showing the possibility of swinging the club in an effortless manner with the absence of technical information but an emphasis on relaxation. With Philip we go into detail about the concepts behind the Easiest Swing in Golf and what it could potentially do for your game. How you don't have to conform How you can let your body move in a flowing and graceful way What is the ‘La Danse du Golf'?

Hey Folks, This episode was a science lesson. He was dropping so much knowledge you'll have to listen to it twice! Below will explain more At Lucky 7 Scents , we were tired of the terrible quality scents that were on the market. Being an engineer and chemist, I took it upon myself to develop high quality, extremely effective scents that people would have great success with. First, I looked at many of the top name brand synthetic scents on the market. As I had guessed, many of them only resembled urine in the most basic sense. They had a few of the chemicals present in urine, but by no means were they complete or had any chance of actually working. They were mainly water, urea, salt and coloring. AND THAT WAS THE ESTRUS DOE FORMULA! No wonder hunters had no luck with these scents. While they wouldn't likely scare deer, they certainly would not attract them. I examined all of the data I could find on animal urine and pheromones. I did additional research on my own, looking to see exactly what chemicals deer were responding to. Finally, I created stable, non-degrading chemical formulas that would completely and effectively fool deer. At that point, they went through extensive field testing to ensure we had it just right and incorporated the final changes needed to make them into the finest scents you could ever buy. It has taken years and a lot of effort, but I was able to create the world's best synthetic deer hunting scents. Our products, and certainly our rut products, have absolutely no equal in the marketplace. Rest assured, you will be very happy with the quality and effectiveness of all the Lucky 7 products from Nelson Creek Outdoors.

703: Surveys show that 60% of all golfers are over 50, yet golf instruction focuses on the power and flexibility of young people. Brian Sparks like Bobby Jones believes that “the whole body is involved” in the golf swing, not just your arms, hips, wrists, etc. Brian has been helping golfers in the UK and France for decades and sees a huge difference from “teaching” (at people) vs “coaching” (for people). From that he’s developed a philosophy that’s evolved from Positive Impact Golf (https://easiestswing.com/our-products/) to Easiest Swing Golf (easiestswing.com).

Much of golf instruction today is ignoring the unique needs of senior golfers. Brian believes it is overly technical and modeled too much on the body movements of the world's best golfer athletes. In today's episode we discuss a much more body friendly way for senior golfers to find their best swing. .
On today’s show we talk about the senior brain and what you can do to maximise your life when you get to a ‘certain’ age. It is interesting to consider that probably the BEST thing you can do in terms of lifestyle choices and the health of your brain is to MOVE. To get some exercise To move your body It almost doesn’t matter what kind of movement it is as long as you do move and you enjoy that motion It may be walking, dancing, aerobics, climbing the choice is yours as long as you make that CHOICE. On today’s show we have Brian Sparks who wrote the wonderful book ‘Positive Impact Golf’ Brian has for some time now been a champion of the senior golfer. His YouTube video ‘the easiest swing in golf’ has had thousands of views and you will thank me for letting you know about it when you take the time to have a look. It is hypnotic in its grace and ease of movement It is a way to move no matter what age you are. In this fascinating session Brian shares with us his own discoveries about how to move the senior body more efficiently We also discuss the vital importance of mindset and how you need to be very careful to not buy into what I call the ‘myths of ageing’ So much of what we do and achieve in our lives is due to how we PERCEIVE the world When you change your perceptions, when you challenge you concepts you get to write a different story. It is a wonderful interview that is applicable to ANY age but one that will totally resonate with senior players. We discuss the immense value of staying active to both mind and body The importance of setting yourself a challenge To aim at SOMETHING Having the courage to challenge the ‘norm’ The ‘social’ factor how it is so very easy to become isolated and the need to get out and spend time both in nature and with other people The story of a man breaking shooting 79 at the age of 80 and the impact that has had on his life How having hope is so essential to live life to the fullest You cannot help but find Brian’s passion for coaching to be infectious You will pick up on his genuine sincerity to want to improve his students and also a clear understanding of the difference between coaching and teaching. Brian can be contacted at www.positiveimpactgolf.co.uk For more details on the upcoming Mind Factor seminars around the country go to www.themindfactor.com
Spring has sprung and for many it signals the unofficial start of the golfing season. Plus with The Masters coming up followed closely by the US Open, it's hard for golfers not to feel the lure of the fairways.

In this episode meet Brian Sparks, a leading golf instructor who teaches all over the world and brings his "Easiest Swing in Golf" method to you here and now. Plus in Taking Stock, Dick looks at The Masters without four-time champ Tiger Woods in the field and also sounds off on the LPGA and why they should be embarrassed.
