This is the final installment of our 5 Non-Negotiables of the Left series where we detail three short-term goals to take back the country and two long-term fights that must be waged for the sake of our democracy and the planet. This fifth entry speaks to the now back-burnered but ever-present threat to life on this planet: Climate change. This is the most difficult case we’ll make to you. We expect pushback and disappointment at first but if we do our job, we’ll shift you to acknowledgement and resolve. This fifth Non-Negotiable isn’t for us. It’s for someone you might know, but more than likely it’s for someone you’ll never meet. We present the establishment of The Climate Trust: Social Security for the Planet.

Did you know that 80 to 90 percent of all agriculture globally is based on annual grain crops? Join Food Sleuth Radio host and Registered Dietitian, Melinda Hemmelgarn, for her interview with Evan Craine, Ph.D., Research Associate at The Land Institute, who discusses the ecological benefits of perennial agriculture.Related website:  www.landinstitute.org https://kernza.org/new-kernza-food-drink-products-proliferate/

What if there was a grain that didn't have to be replanted every year? One with deep roots that stay in the soil, trap carbon, prevent erosion, filter water. Kernza – the world's first perennial grain crop – could be a game changer when it comes to sustainable food production and using our land to help fight climate change. But the big question: does is make a good beer? In this episode, Amy heads to Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee to find out. Kernza® is the trademark name for the grain of an intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium) being developed at The Land Institute in Kansas.

Laura talks about perennial farming with Aubrey Streit Krug, Director of Perennial Cultures at the Land Institute.

When you think of perennial crops, you may think of fruit or nut trees, not plants like wheat or rice, which are traditionally planted every year. An organization called The Land Institute, based in Salina, Kansas is hoping to change that. They have been at work developing perennial grain and legume crops. You may wonder why? Perennial crops have many advantages. They have economic and environmental benefits by requiring less, or no, pesticides and fertilizers, and they can reduce carbon pollution, prevent erosion of the soil and, like trees, hold carbon in the soil.

This is a re-release of our 10th episode with Wes Jackson and David Kline. Wes talked to us about the development of Kernza at The Land Institute and other sustainable farming practices. Rooted In Organic Podcast is sponsored by Byron Seeds and SoilBiotics.

Wendy Johnson joins us at the kitchen table to talk about her farm (Joia Food Farm) her farm journey and her joy of growing local food.   We explore Kernza, the new, perennial grain that Wendy is trialing on her farm and helping to introduce to the market.    Donna gives a history of perennial grain breeding at the Land Institute by Wes Jackson and her experience in baking with Kernza.   Wendy  talks about her sheep flock, how sheep are integrated into the crop and grazing rotation at Joia Farm and her marketing of the wool through her company Counting Sheep Sleep Company.

Soy Checkoff: https://www.unitedsoybean.org/Sustain-A-Grain: https://www.sustainagrain.com/The Land Institute: https://landinstitute.org/Today's episode features Peter Miller and Brandon Schlautman, Ph.D. of Sustain-A-Grain. Sustain-A-Grain has a two-part mission: to introduce consumers to Kernza® perennial grain and to support family farms in growing Kernza®. The team has been growing Kernza® themselves for nearly 5 years in close collaboration with The Land Institute—where Kernza® was first developed. They are certified seed dealers, handlers, and growers, and they work with dozens of farmers across the Great Plains to grow and market their grain. They also work with food companies, restaurants, breweries, and distilleries to source high-quality Kernza®. This is an interesting episode about the potential for perennial grains, and what it takes to commercialize a brand new crop. The problems are different that what you would expect. For example, Kernza® has received a ton of press and excitement from some pretty big end users, which sounds like a great thing, and ultimately it is. But Peter and Brandon have to find ways to build the supply chain in a way that buyers remain happy, farmers remain profitable, and supply and demand can grow together at a sustainable pace. No easy task. We'll talk about the research and breeding efforts that continue to go into the crop and what this means for farmers, food companies, and the future of agriculture. Peter Miller, CEO & Co-founder, has global agribusiness experience and previously worked in three early-stage startups, including helping to launch FarmLead's online grain marketplace. Peter has over 10 years of operations and private equity experience in the ag industry. He holds an MBA from University of Illinois.Dr. Brandon Schlautman, Chief Science Officer & Co-founder, is a crop scientist who previously led cranberry breeding and domestication efforts at University of Wisconsin and perennialization of edible legumes at The Land Institute. Brandon serves as the Research Director for a $10M National Institute of Food and Agriculture grant for perennial cover crops and holds a Ph.D. from University of Wisconsin.We begin the conversation with Brandon talking about where this all started, the place where Kernza® has been developed over the past 20 years: at The Land Institute.

The best place to generate electrical power is where it's used. We all know that solar PV adds value for both owners and society by improving resilience, reducing energy costs and decreasing carbon emissions and climate impact. Yet traditional design practices and compressed schedules make it challenging for project teams to include integrated solar on their designs. The solution is Architectural Solar and the Architectural Solar Association knows that the key moves are early engagement and integration of architectural, structural and cladding systems. The time is now to consider solar as being architecturally significant and to realize that it does not always have to be relegated to the roof. The days of the Mr Potato HeadTM approach, where panels are stuck onto a home or building after they're built, are over. Join us for forward-looking discussion with two industry experts in best practices for solar integration and design._____Stan PipkinSince 2007, Stan has co-managed and owned Lighthouse Solar in Austin, TX. He has been involved in the shaping of local and state policy to foster the growth of solar energy. In addition, Stan runs an architectural design practice, Pipkinc., focusing on residential, commercial and civic projects. He has found considerable overlap between integrated solar design and holistic architectural design services. In 2000 he co-founded a research and design collective, Spurse, which has engaged in community design projects, material research and process consulting for institutions and organizations ranging from the Guggenheim Museum to The Land Institute. Their work has included exhibitions, workshops, lectures, participatory community design projects, product development and architectural design. Lecture and workshop venues have included MIT, Rhode Island School of Design, Maine College of Art and the GuggenheimWhile managing and growing all aspects of Lighthouse Solar, Stan worked closely with a number of industry innovators, including Lumos Solar on the development of its architectural solar product suite. Stan holds a Master of Architecture from the University of Texas, his skill-set sits at the nexus of solar energy and architecture._____Christopher KlingaChris is a licensed, professional structural engineer, with 10-years of hands-on experience in the architectural solar industry. He has an extensive background in solar installation design and operations and architectural solar product development. In addition to his efforts with ASA, Chris operates his own solar product development firm SolMotiv Design, which consults directly with the full value chain of both PV and curtain wall industries. Chris is also a co-inventor on 3 solar technology patents and 3 pending patents. Chris holds a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Colorado in Boulder._____TeamHosted by Kristof IrwinEdited by Nico MignardiProduced by M. Walker

Wheat feeds billions but it has some big climate problems. Wheat production degrades the soil, which releases carbon. It also requires a lot of land. That means clearing land—often forest—to make room for it, which also releases carbon. Plus, wheat harms ecosystems: fertilizer runoff causes water pollution, and monoculture hurts biodiversity. One alternative? Kernza. Developed over decades by the Land Institute, it's a perennial relative of wheat that sequesters carbon with its massive root system. But does its carbon-sequestering power make it truly climate-friendly?   This week, Mike and Tamar talk about Kernza and the decades-long movement to domesticate the holy grail of grains: a crop that not only produces high yields but also improves the environment.

A lifelong love of prairie led sculptor and former architect BILL MCBRIDE to the rolling sea of grass and sunflowers that is Matfield Green, Kansas—population 45. Serendipitous introductions to fellow environmentalist, artists and conservation enthusiasts enabled Bill to find a home for his own work and his ongoing passion project, the Prairie Art Path. Initially lacking a road map, Bill “lived conceptually,” doggedly pursued his artistic dreams, and eventually created the place he imagined. “You have to keep listening to yourself and find your models.”Find BILL:Website:  www.billmcbridestudio.com    Facebook:   @wamcbride      Instagram: @MatfieldGreenWorks  Mentioned:Matfield Green, KS (learn) Matfield Station (learn)Cottonwood Falls, Kansas (visit)  Tall Grass Prairie National Preserve (visit)  Flint Hills, Kansas (explore) Prairie Art Path, Bill's artwork and others (discover)  Riverbank Neighbors (learn) Wes Jackson, environmentalist / Land Institute in Salina, KS (learn)  Friends of Chicago River (learn)  Chianati Foundation, Marfa TX (visit)  Donald Judd , American artist, minimalism (learn) Pioneer Bluffs, Center for Flint Hills Ranching Heritage (learn)  Ton Haak, Dutch writer, designer, (learn)  Tall Grass Artist Residency, residency and bunkhouses (explore)The Bank / Matfield Green Works, gallery & event space (explore)  Mike Miller, sculptor (learn)  Andy Goldsworthy, English sculptor, environmentalist/ land art (learn) Mark Arts Center, Wichita, KS (learn) Find Me, Kristy Darnell Battani: Website:    https://www.kristybattani.com Instagram:  kristybattaniart Facebook:  kristybattaniart Did you enjoy this episode?

Thirty years ago “The Death of Ramon Gonzalez was published and subsequently began making an impression on thousands of people around the world with, as Wes Jackson of The Land Institute said,” a new way of looking at the tragic human and environmental consequences of chemical-dependent agriculture”. The author of this ground breaking book, Angus Wright recently passed away after a productive life.  For the author of a book that begins with a death from chemical agriculture in Mexico, it seems fitting that the death of the author Angus Wright should begin with a review of lessons learned, progress made and what more is needed for “modern agriculture.” To help with this journey I'm pleased to welcome, Steve Gliessman farmer, retired University of California Santa Cruz professor, one of the first guests on Farm to Table Talk and an author himself-- he literally wrote the book on Agroecology.

This week on Inside Julia's Kitchen, host Todd Schulkin welcomes Rachel Stroer, President of The Land Institute, a non-profit research organization and leader in the global movement to create perennial, intrinsically regenerative, scalable agriculture.

If our future is one of limitation, how may we face it with courage to do the best job with what is possible? Even though easy solutions may not be apparent it does not make asking hard questions irrelevant.

In this episode with Robert Jensen, retired journalism professor, prolific author, and life-long social and environmental justice advocate, we discuss his latest book “An Inconvenient Apocalypse: Environmental Collapse, Climate Crisis, and the Fate of Humanity” that he co-authored with his colleague and elder, and The Land Institute's co-founder Wes Jackson. Against the backdrop of cascading ecological and social crises of subjugation of people and nature under the dominion of patriarchy, capitalism, imperialism, and anthropocentrism, we engage in a humbling dialogue about what it would mean for us to grapple with difficult questions and to consciously embrace limits, as a pathway to a more graceful and meaningful co-existence with one another and with Nature.

PLEASE COMPLETE THE LISTENER SURVEY:https://bit.ly/Pulses2022 ( https://bit.ly/Pulses2022) The Land Institute's https://landinstitute.org/about-us/staff/brandon-schlautman/ (Brandon Schlautman) joins the show about the work he is doing to breed perennial pulses. Brandon is the lead scientist of the perennial legumes program at the Land Institute which is based in Salina, KS. The 40 year old non-profit ag research institute tries to find solutions that balance short term economic realities with long term conservation goals. They're known for their work in kernza, and hope to make similar progress in pulses. In this episode we talk about why developing a perennial pulse crop is worthwhile, where they started down this road, how they settled on sainfoin for the perennial pulse development, and the road ahead towards commercialization. “My program at The Land Institute focuses on perennial pulses and we're exploring various candidates and are starting to work towards something that can kind of mimic a pea or a chickpea or a lentil, but be something that has living roots in the ground year round, and gonna make it through our winters and recover and always be there. It's kind of a plant once and harvest many times type of deal.” -Brandon Schlautman So when Brandon arrived at The Land Institute, one of his early challenges was to find the most promising perennial legumes to consider for commercial development. This open ended task was the first step to narrowing it down to a plant he could work with. He eventually settled on sainfoin. One big plus about sainfoin, is that it actually is already grown in some areas as a commercial crop. But settling on sainfoin is just one of the many challenges of bringing this new crop to production. The hope is this will find a premium market, reduce soil disturbance, and thrive on minimal inputs.  “There are a couple thousand acres of production in the western part of the US. And I really like that there's a sainfoin seed industry already. We've talked with multiple growers in Montana that they grow and clean seed and sell it to other producers mostly for forage production. So we have some of this knowledge about how sainfoin can be grown and how to do the seed production. The eating it is the next step and so we're excited.” - Brandon Schautman This Week on https://www.growingpulsecrops.com/ (Growing Pulse Crops): Meet https://landinstitute.org/about-us/staff/brandon-schlautman/ (Brandon Schautman) the lead scientist of the perennial legumes program at the Land Institute  Explore the journey towards developing and producing a perineal pulse crop Discover the benefits of having a perennial crop and the possible opportunities sainfoin can offer producers Learn more at http://www.landinstitute.org (www.landinstitute.org) Growing Pulse Crops Podcast is hosted by https://www.linkedin.com/in/timhammerich/ (Tim Hammerich) of the http://www.futureofag.com (Future of Agriculture Podcast).

Climate change means that, in many parts of the world, the way we farm is no longer working. We need a larger, more diverse range of crops that perform even when the rains don't come or, as can also be the case, when too much rain comes. Currently, just 15 crops make up 90% of our energy intake, according to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization. In this programme, we're meeting people who are trying to develop food crops that might thrive in our changing world. Ruth Alexander visits the Millennium Seed Bank ran by the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew in the UK, where Dr Chris Cockel explains their work collecting and storing seeds from the wild relatives of our staple crops. Tessa Peters, Director of Crop Stewardship at The Land Institute in Kansas, US, makes the case for creating perennial versions of our crops, in order to preserve soil health. And Dr Rebbie Harawa, regional director, Eastern and Southern Africa at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi Arid-Tropics talks about why a currently underutilised crop – millet – could be help struggling farmers in dry areas.

How often do we think about the food we eat and its impact on climate? A new food product called Kernza® perennial grain is part of a major effort to fight climate change by changing what we plant and eat. But can Kernza really find a place on dinner tables – and in cereal bowls –across Wisconsin? In this episode, we sit down to taste a few samples and learn why changing farming systems is key to helping our climate. Kernza® is the perennial grain crop from an improved intermediate wheatgrass developed by The Land Institute in Kansas. Research partners in the US, including Wisconsin and Minnesota, and abroad continue to improve the grain.

Manitoba Co-operator reporter Geralyn Wichers cracks open a page from history and speaks with plant breeder Peggy Wagoner, Lee DeHaan of the Land Institute, and Doug Cattani at the University of Manitoba, about early and ongoing efforts of perennial grain development – tracing back to the tragic, Stalin-era Soviet Union period – and the promise of a perennial, dual-purpose grain named kernza that may be more environmentally friendly to grow than some annual grain crops. Hosted by Geralyn Wichers.

Food can have a positive impact on the land and our communities. “But our planet is in danger and it's time for us to think even bigger.” These words of wisdom are surprisingly to be found on a climate smart Kernza Grain cereal by Cascadian Farm. Thanks to the research and development at the Land Institute in Salina Kansas, the deep rooted, soil healthy perennial grain will store more carbon, prevent soil erosion and preserve clean water. Plus it makes nutritious tasty cereal and soon other food products. Tim Crews is the Chief Scientist at the Land Institute and a believer in what perennial plants like Kernza can offer the planet. www.landinstitute.org

In this episode, we consider what farmers grow—and whether that, too, can change. Producer Rachel Yang introduces us to Don Wyse, who leads a research program at the University of Minnesota that is developing 16 new or improved crops designed to thrive in a world with an unpredictable climate. Yang drills down into one of those crops, a grain called Kernza, a type of wheatgrass. Unlike corn and wheat, which are annual crops whose roots are in the ground only a short time, Kernza is a perennial. You plant it, harvest it, and next year it grows back. So Kernza develops super dense roots that can reach 10 feet into the earth, requiring less water, locking a lot of carbon into the soil, and slurping up twice as much fertilizer as annual wheat, thereby preventing runoff and nitrogen pollution. It is a climate-mitigating super plant. But for perennials like Kernza to replace annual grains, they need to be profitable for farmers to grow. Which means there needs to be a market for those grains. As Yang explains, the Land Institute in Kansas, mission control for Kernza development, received a $10 million grant from the USDA in 2020 to start scaling up Kernza from specialty crop to staple grain. That money has people building out a supply chain by experimenting with Kernza: farmers farming it, millers milling it, and bakers baking it for eaters to eat. Everyone along this supply chain is trying to figure out how to deal with the challenges of this new grain.

Wednesday's AOA started with a discussion with Tessa Peters, the Director of Crop Sustainability with The Land Institute about the new perennial grain they've developed, Kernza. Dave Gebhardt of EarthDaily Agro joined the show in segment 2 with a look at global crop production monitoring through satellites. Then Arlan Suderman, Chief Commodities Analyst with StoneX discussed the increasing inflation levels through the economy and the outlook for soy products. Ag meteorologist Greg Soulje, of This Week in Agribusiness provided an update on the blizzard impacting the northern plains and looked out to the growing season ahead.

Not all meat is created equal. If you've been wondering what regenerative meat is and how it can heal our bodies and our planet, then this episode is for you. Our guest went from a high-level athlete trying to optimize his performance to a rancher raising the best meat possible for southern California.  Regenerative rancher Kevin Muno of https://perennialpasturesranch.com/ (Perennial Pastures) digs into how he and his team are revitalizing 17,000 acres of southern California grasslands through holistic, ecological grazing methods. We dig into the nitty gritty of how regenerative ranching can build soil and drastically improve the health of our planet while providing us with nutrient-dense protein.  We explain exactly how cattle can restore grasslands and build topsoil while yielding nutrient-dense, healing food.  We also discuss how more regenerative ranches and businesses can dive into this movement to make a difference on a global scale. Kevin also provides profound insights into regenerative entrepreneurship and how to create financially viable businesses that align with serving his community and contributing to something that is much bigger than himself. He offers so much advice for aspiring regenerative ranchers as well as how eaters can support this movement. We explore the differences between annual, low-diversity, soil-destroying industrial systems versus perennial, high diversity, soil-building agroecosystems. And how this directly impacts our gut microbiomes and so many other aspects of human health. We also get into the fascinating details of new nutrient density studies that are helping differentiate between different types of cattle ranching, and how some meats may be drastically healthier for us than others.  Lastly, we dive into why Kevin believes that we need science-driven data to identify greenwashing in the regenerative space, and how we can differentiate the truly regenerative producers versus the fakers. If you've been wondering what questions to ask your local ranchers or how to find truly ethical, eco-friendly meat in the grocery store, we've got the answers!  Follow Perennial Pastures on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perennialpasturesranch/?hl=en (@perennialpasturesranch)  Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thesoilcollective_/ (@thesoilcollective_ ) Mentioned in this podcast: https://perennialpasturesranch.com/ (Perennial Pastures Ranch)  ‘The Paleo Diet' by Dr. Loren Cordain (book) ‘Restoration Agriculture' by Mark Shepard  (book) Roger Savory (son of Allan Savory, a key figure in regenerative agriculture) ‘Dirt to Soil by Gabe Brown (book)  Soil Health Academy Course at University of CA Chico https://landinstitute.org (The Land Institute) https://www.savannainstitute.org/ (The Savannah Institute) ‘Sacred Cow' by Diana Rodgers and Robb Wolf (book) https://bionutrient.org/bionutrientinstitute (Bionutrient Food Association)

First up, we HAVE to talk about how awesome Socrates was. He felt like a substantial character in this book. Top is SO cute. He gets ALL the treats. Is Top a direct descendent of the original Top? Kristen tees it up, and Karen hits a homerun. We really love Romeo for so many reasons. There's a reason why we got all that information about octopuses during the virtual tour! This was a really cool twist to the story. Our love for Jupiter knows no bounds. Let's not turn this into a Great British Bake-Off podcast. He has an interesting ingredients list, and he does an amazing job with it. There's a huge message about the conservation of the planet in this book, and that's pretty awesome. Did we see that big twist coming? How culpable is Dev for everything that happened? Is Dev redeemable? It depends on a lot of factors, honestly. And how much of this was because of Land Institute's manipulations? Poor Ana, though. She's been through so much. Luckily, she has super supportive friends and a good head on her shoulders. Dev was expecting the worst, and Ana was trying her hardest to trust him again. Let's talk about Ana and Gemini. Do we like them together? Do we want them to stay friends? Hewett was a surprise, wasn't he? That said, he does remind us of a certain other professor… Kids are the future, and that's why middle grade and young adults books are so awesome.
