What if every dollar you spend today could save you 10 dollars tomorrow? Development expert Harjeet Singh reveals how climate solutions like floating farms and “sponge cities” that absorb floodwater aren't just clever adaptations — they're smart economics. He explains why wealthy nations must fund the adaptation efforts of developing countries and shows how anybody can build resilience to climate change no matter where they are.For a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

[Part 1] Are Animal Farms Poisoning Our Organic Food? Bonnie Toye discusses the reality that organic crops are often grown using fertilizer and byproducts from the animal farming industry, which pollutes the soil with chemical and pharmaceutical residues. Support for and adoption of veganic farming practices—wherein crops are grown without any animal-based inputs—can help address this problem. Listen to today's episode for details.

In dieser spannenden Episode von "Vier unter Deck" versammeln wir uns, um die neueste Folge von "Star Trek: Lower Decks" zu besprechen, die den Titel "A Farewell to Arms" trägt. Unsere Diskussion beginnt mit einer informativen Zusammenfassung, die Daniela vorbereitet hat. Hier wird klar, dass Ma'aH auf seine Familienfarm zurückkehrt und sich dort mit neuen Herausforderungen konfrontiert sieht. Besonders bemerkenswert ist, dass diese Episode von einer Frau geschrieben und inszeniert wurde, was in der "Star Trek"-Welt eine Seltenheit darstellt. Unsere Analyse umfasst tiefere Themen wie die kulturellen Hintergründe der Klingonen und die Bedeutung von Ehre, die uns die Möglichkeit bietet, die Verknüpfungen zwischen dem Kämpferleben und dem ruhigen Dasein auf der Farm zu erkunden. Als wir uns tiefer mit den Charakterstudien auseinandersetzen, wird die Dynamik zwischen Ma'aH und seinem Bruder Malor deutlich. Ihre Interaktionen auf der Farm geben uns spannende Einblicke nicht nur in die Klischees der klingonischen Landwirtschaft, sondern auch in die komplexe Beziehung der Klingonen zu Familie und Tradition. Diese Erzählung wird lebendig durch gut ausgearbeitete Dialoge und vielschichtige Charaktere, die ihre Stärken, Schwächen und inneren Konflikte überzeugend zur Schau stellen. Ein weiterer Höhepunkt der Episode ist der Auftritt von Malor, vermittelt durch einen Gastsprecher mit Erfahrung aus früheren "Star Trek"-Serien. Diese nostalgische Verbindung zum Erbe des "Star Trek"-Universums fügt der Handlung eine spannende Dimension hinzu, während gleichzeitig neue Geschichten erzählt werden. Ma'aHs Suche nach seinem Platz in der Zivilgesellschaft wird von der komplexen Beziehung zu seinem Bruder überschattet, der zwischen den Erwartungen der Krieger-Gesellschaft und seinen eigenen Wünschen hin- und hergerissen ist. Der Besuch in einer klingonischen Taverne intensiviert die Handlung, in der die Klingonen ihre Ehre beweisen und sich messen. Wir erleben die Kultur und den Humor der Klingonen in dieser anregenden Umgebung, die von geselligen Wettkämpfen und lebhaften Musikdarbietungen geprägt ist. Diese Details machen die Welt von "Star Trek: Lower Decks" greifbar und lebendig und eröffnen ein Spielfeld für tiefere Gespräche über Ehre, Familientraditionen und die besondere Bindung zwischen Geschwistern. Im Laufe der Diskussion thematisieren wir auch die Vorstellung von Opferbereitschaft, die zentral für die Handlung wird. Die Herausforderungen, denen sich Ma'aH und die anderen stellen müssen, um ihre Ehre zurückzugewinnen, beleuchten die kulturellen Werte der Klingonen und regen dazu an, über den Umgang mit Ehre und Pflicht nachzudenken. Dieser ernsthafte Subtext wird von humorvollen Momenten begleitet, während die Charaktere gleichzeitig ihre Freundschaften stärken und sich in ihren identitären Krisen weiterentwickeln. In der Staffelung der Charaktere sehen wir, wie Ma'aH von einem leidenschaftlichen Kämpfer zu einem differenzierten Individuum wird, der für sich und seine Familie kämpft. Dies verdeutlicht, dass die Herausforderungen des menschlichen Daseins, auch in einer erfundenen Welt wie "Star Trek", universell sind und uns dazu anregen, über Moral und Verantwortung nachzudenken. Schließlich kommen wir zum humorvollen, jedoch auch ernsten B-Plot, der geschickt die Themen Wahrnehmung und Identität behandelt. Auch wenn einige kritische Stimmen anmerken, dass dieser Strang etwas schwächer ausfällt, so bietet er dennoch wertvolle Einsichten und amüsante Momente. Insgesamt bietet die Episode sowohl in Bezug auf Charakterentwicklung als auch auf die narrative Struktur spannende Einblicke. Die Verbindung zwischen Ma'aH und dem Essenskritiker sowie die fein ausgearbeiteten Szenarien schaffen eine Mischung aus Drama und Humor, die das "Star Trek"-Universum bereichert und die Zuschauer in ihren Bann zieht.

This past month we took a look at the timely topic of agritourism and the potential for farms to serve as community and educational centers. This summer we saw a lot of protests against mass tourism and the effects that it's having on tourist centers like Barcelona near where I live. The antidote to this is something that we debate in past episodes I've done on the developing series on regenerative tourism and in this panel session, we'll take a look at it from a farm perspective.  In this session I speak to three people who either have integrated farm visits and agrotoursim as a significant part of their farm enterprise, or are working to empower farmers to integrate tourism and commuinity events into their operation.  I was lucky enough to get three fantastic guests who I happen to know personally and exemplify some of the best in entrepreneurial tenacity, creativity, and experience.

Rick Hartlieb and his wife and business partner, Jen, are the proud first-generation farmers behind Castanea Farms in Berks County, Pennsylvania. Their journey is rooted in both passion and persistence, beginning more than 25 years ago when they first met through the Conrad Weiser Area School District's FFA program.Rick's early love for forestry led him to Penn State University, where he earned an Associate of Science in Forest Technology from the Mont Alto campus before completing his Bachelor of Science in Forestry at University Park. His career path soon intertwined with chestnuts—starting in 2005 as a volunteer with the Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation.By 2008, Rick was serving his community as a Service Forester with the DCNR Bureau of Forestry, managing forest resources across Berks, Lancaster, and Chester Counties. His leadership continued to grow, and from 2014–2024 he served as Assistant Manager for Resource Stewardship in the William Penn Forest District before stepping into the role of District Manager in 2024.In 2017, Rick and Jen discovered the property that would define their future: a farmstead dotted with 100-year-old chestnut trees. Inspired by its legacy, they named it Castanea Farms—a tribute to the genus of the chestnut itself. Today, chestnuts remain at the heart of their farming operation, a living testament to both heritage and hard work.

"Can AI predict health problems in farm animals before they even show symptoms?" In this fascinating episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen welcomes Professor Suresh Neethirajan, an expert in digital agriculture and animal welfare, to explore how artificial intelligence and accelerometer data are revolutionizing the way we care for farm animals. Prof. Neethirajan shares how his team uses AI models, combining accelerometer data with other health metrics, to predict issues like lameness in cows weeks before symptoms appear. This early detection could transform farm management by enabling preventative care, improving animal welfare, and enhancing farm productivity. The episode also dives into the practical challenges of collecting data from various farm animals, including cows, sheep, and chickens, and how accelerometers and AI models can provide insights into their behavior and health. Prof. Neethirajan explains how activity data is used to assess movement patterns, stress indicators, and even predict metabolic disorders in animals. If you're curious about how technology is being applied to improve animal welfare and farm management, this episode offers a compelling look into the future of agriculture. ________________________   This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc. | Better Sleep, Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity Research with Less Hassle --- Collect, store and manage SB and PA data easily and remotely - Discover ground-breaking Fibion SENS. --- SB and PA measurements, analysis, and feedback made easy - Learn more about Fibion Research. --- Learn more about Fibion Sleep and Fibion Circadian Rhythm Solutions. --- Fibion Kids - Activity tracking designed for children. --- Explore our Wearables,  Experience sampling method (ESM), Sleep,  Heart rate variability (HRV), Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity article collections for insights on related articles. --- Refer to our article "Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Measurements" for an exploration of active and sedentary lifestyle assessment methods. --- Learn about actigraphy in our guide: Exploring Actigraphy in Scientific Research: A Comprehensive Guide. --- Gain foundational ESM insights with "Introduction to Experience Sampling Method (ESM)" for a comprehensive overview. --- Explore accelerometer use in health research with our article "Measuring Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior with Accelerometers ". --- For an introduction to the fundamental aspects of HRV, consider revisiting our Ultimate Guide to Heart Rate Variability. --- Follow the podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/PA_Researcher  Follow host Dr Olli Tikkanen on Twitter https://twitter.com/ollitikkanen  Follow Fibion on Twitter https://twitter.com/fibion  Check us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PA_Researcher 

On this Labor Day edition of the AgNet News Hour, Nick Papagni and Josh McGill welcomed Daniel Jackson of Family Tree Farms to discuss the state of California agriculture, from tree fruit and blueberries to nuts and water policy. A Strong Year for Fruit Quality Jackson explained that the 2024 season brought some of the best weather in recent memory, creating excellent conditions for peaches, plums, and nectarines. “This has been one of the coolest summers we've ever had,” he said, noting that milder temperatures allowed trees to thrive and boosted packouts. While the overall crop was lighter, the quality and percentage of premium fruit were higher than recent years. Family Tree Farms is in the final quarter of its tree fruit season, but Jackson emphasized that late-season varieties are still delivering strong flavor and appearance. Beyond stone fruit, the company is also harvesting blueberries, citrus, nuts, and even working with new warm-weather apple varieties like the Sugarburst. Rain, Trade, and Tariffs Recent storms across the Central Valley raised concerns about damage to late-harvest crops. Jackson said it is too soon to tell the full impact, but some almonds on the ground and late-hanging fruit may be affected. He also discussed the ongoing trade and tariff challenges, particularly with plums, which face higher costs to enter China. That creates obstacles but also opportunities: “Challenges create opportunities for us. You look for other markets, develop other markets, and get stronger in other areas.” The Ongoing Water Battle As always in California, the conversation circled back to water. Jackson warned that water scarcity and high costs could push farmers to pull out almond and pistachio acreage in coming years. “It all comes down to water,” he said, stressing the need for long-term infrastructure to capture and store more of the state's rainfall. Without it, California risks losing valuable farmland while urban growth continues to demand more water. Despite these challenges, Jackson remains optimistic, citing the resilience of California farmers and the global demand for the state's fruit and nut crops.

Changes to the costs, paperwork and bureaucracy that are hampering agri-food exports from Great Britain to the European Union won't be in place until 2027. Nick Thomas–Symonds, the Minister for EU Relations, has been setting out his priorities for the future of the UK-EU relationship in a speech in front of industry representatives and journalists. We speak to trade expert David Henig and hear how food exporters are 'disappointed' that barriers to trade won't be removed sooner.The pig and poultry industries is damaging our rivers and countryside, according to a report commissioned by the Wildlife Trusts. The UK produces almost one million tonnes of pig meat and two million tonnes of poultry meat per year and the Trusts have been examining the broader environmental risks from farming pigs and poultry. We hear look into the details of the report and hear from the pig industry.Pollinators play an essential part in crop production and we've been looking at them all week. One fruit farm in Herefordshire imports bees from the Netherlands to pollinate fruit in polytunnels. We also speak to the insect charity Buglife.

We want to help farmers and ranchers experience freedom and make farming fun again.Doing things the way traditional agronomists, lenders and insurance companies tell us we need to do it is not that much fun anymore. If you share this sentiment, give us a call. We have been there done that and thrown away the free hat,” Vance McCoy - Transitional Ag Consulting About Vance McCoy: In 1988, when Vance McCoy was 16, his father passed away, leaving Vance and his mom Maggie to manage the farm, “I was the only boy and had three sisters.  That was how it worked out from the beginning.  Everyone just knew I was going to be a farmer.  I had planned to leave and come back to the farm, but when dad passed away, that put me on the fast track.”When McCoy was growing up near Elsie, Neb., the family raised mostly corn and operated a cow/calf operation.  Today, he and his wife Ronda's two grown sons, Tyler and Tanner, farm as separate managers of their own endeavors.  McCoy continues raising corn and soybeans, but has also found a passion for soil health and regenerative agriculture.  In addition to the farming business, McCoy also started Triple Creek Cover Crops, named for the three creeks that still cross the family farm.  His daughter, Meredith, helps with the cover crop business.    His sons returning to the farm around 2012, was one of the reasons McCoy began to seriously look at changing some things, “I had bought my farm when I was 30, and when I was 40 had the sons coming back to farm with me already.  We had to find a new way to make that work.  We had to look at the expenses in a different way as well as our risk.  That is when I really fast-forwarded into a new way of doing things.”  McCoy enjoys sharing his trials and triumphs on Facebook through videos and photos with posts outlining the real-world scenarios he is testing, “I try and be humble about it.  I was lucky because dad was always forward-thinking.  That's another thing I tell people, ‘You have to respect your dad because he didn't get to where he is at by being stupid.  Be patient, there are probably some things you need to learn from him too.'  But, I also remind some of those dads that if their fathers had not allowed them to make changes, where would they be today?”“Asking questions and getting answers will get us someplace,” he said.  “Don't preach.  Ask questions.  It's the best way to learn from somebody.”Contact Vance and the Transitional Ag Consulting team at: www.grazemastergroup.com.

 Today on Consuming the Craft, I welcomed back Jeff Frisbee from Addison Farms, a returning guest and the driving force behind one of our region's finest family-run wineries. We caught up over a glass of wine—okay, maybe more than one glass—while sharing laughs about the unique problems that accompany running a vineyard, especially as harvest season approaches. From creative deer deterrent tactics to the intense workdays of grape picking and pressing, we dove into the realities, challenges, and joys of small-scale winemaking. Jeff also gave me a fascinating wine-mead blend to distill for student projects, sparking a discussion about fermentation, distillation, and the pursuit of crafting something truly unique. Jeff is the owner and winemaker at Addison Farms, a limited production winery nestled in the rolling hills of Western North Carolina. Hailing from a background rooted deeply in local agriculture, he and his family have worked tirelessly to not only keep the farm in the family but also to evolve it into a celebrated destination for wine lovers. Jeff's ethos centers on stewardship of the land, a commitment to quality, and a willingness to experiment—all grounded in a love for community and a touch of self-deprecating humor. “This time of year, we have to stop worrying about esthetics and start worrying about practicality—because the deer can decimate very quickly.” ~Jeff Frisbee Today on Consuming the Craft:·     Addison Farms' 2023 and 2024 red wines are still in barrel, while their whites have already been released and are almost sold out.·     The fruit from the past couple of years has been fantastic, and prospects for the coming harvest look strong—if the deer can be kept at bay.·     Creative methods (wind socks, RVs, noise makers) are essential for deterring wildlife and protecting the vineyard's livelihood.·     Harvest days are long and intense, starting early in the morning, featuring manual grape picking and immediate processing.·     As a “limited production winery,” Addison Farms operates smaller than most and relies heavily on family and community help.·     Consistent fermentation is a key to quality, especially when annual crop conditions can vary drastically.·     Jeff donates wine and mead blends to support student distilling projects, believing in the value of experimentation and education.·     Protecting farmland is at the core of Jeff's mission—keeping agricultural spaces safe from development is a personal and community priority. Guest Contact: Jeff at Addison Farms  Website: addisonfarms.net  In-person: 4005 New Leicester Hwy, Leicester, NC 28748 (Open Thursday–Sunday, 2–7 PM; Saturday tours at 2 PM) Resources Mentioned: ·     Addison Farms Vineyards·     Student distillation projects at AB Tech·     Bas Armagnac (as a tasting and discussion point) • Madeira and its historical estufagem processStop by Addison Farms, lend a hand, or join Jeff for a tour—you'll get a real taste of North Carolina's agricultural legacy, and maybe even a story or two you won't hear anywhere else. This episode is brought to you by… McConnell Farms - Taste the Way You Remember.

Pruett Farms is a historic property in Livermore which was established as a farmstead in 1879, and the first grapes were planted in 1880. The house and winery building were built in 1881. The farm residents include horses, punker chickens, alpaca and the obligatory farm cats. The current winery was founded in 2021, and we opened the tasting room in 2023 as well as a family friendly picnic area. The barn was remodeled in the style of a moody speak easy. Our estate vineyard is planted to Chardonnay, and we purchase fruit for other wines from select vineyards in Northern California. Our red wines include Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and multiple Rhône varietals. We have two rosés plus we are about to release a unique Chillable Red named "Heretic." We make Chardonnay as it should be without catering to styles that distort this beautiful fruit of Burgundy. This includes 5 styles ranging from austere to opulent Northern California.

The demand for water from the Colorado River is of paramount importance out West and the focus of some big battles. It's been especially critical for farming and agriculture.

On this episode of Stinchfield, we shine a spotlight on Potter Valley, California — ground zero for the radical green crusade. Liberal bureaucrats are ripping out dams in the name of “saving fish,” while ranchers and farmers are left high and dry. The water that once sustained cattle, vineyards, and crops is now flushed downstream so salmon can swim free, while the people who actually feed America are forced to suffer. This is environmental extremism at its worst: politicians choosing fish over families, and ideology over common sense. The destruction in Potter Valley is just the beginning — a blueprint for how the left wants to starve out rural America under the banner of “climate justice.” I’ll expose how this green lunacy threatens our food supply, our livelihoods, and the very survival of farming communities — all so the radical left can brag about their eco-virtue signaling. www.EnergizedHealth.com/Grant www.PatriotMobile.com/Grant TWC.Health/Grant Use "Grant" for 10% Off See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
