The use of wood ash as a field treatment became widespread. But the secret to a fertile soil was always human waste. In Japan "night soil" was a precious commodity.How did we ended up today being disgusted by our own waste and wasting it far, far away from us, polluting our oceans? And why are the Minoans to blame?A recent article made headlines around the internet and it was mentioned in many good news stories around the internet. It went like this: “Scientists are aiming to grow 4,500 trees at a national park with the help of fertiliser made from urine collected from festivalgoers.Links about today's episode subject:Minoan plumbing: https://toilet-guru.com/minoan/Can't see the wood for the wees: Urine from festivalgoers turned into fertiliserhttps://www.standard.co.uk/news/science/scientists-trees-hampshire-bristol-welsh-b1277509.htmlThe Other Dark Matterhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Other-Dark-Matter-Science-Business/dp/022661557Xhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/future/article/20240116-the-dark-earth-revealing-the-amazons-secretsMusic by Pavlos KapralosMuch love,ThomSupport the podcast on Ko-Fi and Patreon for ad-free episodes!https://ko-fi.com/thedeliciouslegacypodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/thedeliciouslegacySupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

Philippa and Quentin cover the week in Ambridge — Sunday 28th to Tuesday 30th June — and Brian has properly lost the goodwill of even his most loyal defenders.Kate finally gives Brian both barrels after manure is dumped right next to her field, and rightly so. Ed gets caught in the crossfire between Brian's demands and the Borchester show. Amber is distinctly unimpressed by a very expensive smart cot, and the cracks with her parents continue to widen. Ian proves spectacularly hopeless covering reception at Grey Gables. Helen manages to be Helen about wallpaper. And Lottie and Chris's evening takes an unexpected turn.Plus: thoughts on the new scriptwriter's confident first week, a Doctor Who reference explained courtesy of the Facebook group, the SUV driver mystery resolved (somewhat underwhelmingly), and a preview of this Friday's two-part Stella interview.Topics covered: Brian Aldridge | Kate Aldridge | Ed Grundy | Amber | George Grundy | Keira | Ian Thornton | Helen Archer | Borchester show | Tom Archer | Natasha | The Archers June 2026You can BUY US A COFFEE here: buymeacoffee.com/allaboutthearchersYou can buy our MERCH here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/aboutthearchers/shopDo join our FACEBOOK Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1127587031446013/ Hosted on Acast.

In the Old Testament, prophets were equipped by God to illuminate His purpose for the people. One such leader, Zechariah, rallied the Jewish people after their Babylonian exile, using a “hope-ray vision” that was vibrant, revealing, and galvanizing. His powerful visions, bold promises, and vivid prophecies revealed God's heart to protect, restore, and lead His people. And that message still rings true today. Join Horizon at the Equipping Services for a verse-by-verse journey through ZECHARIAH as we see how Christ-followers, like the Israelites before us, can rediscover hope by looking deep into God's work.

Special Interview Episode: Bill Eberle On Creating Manure Relationships

But he figured wrong...

Welcome to The Treehouse Show, where stupid news, celebrity birthdays, and questionable life choices all come together under one roof.We kick things off with one of the internet's most heated debates: Is it okay to throw your bagged dog poop into someone else's trash can? A viral social media post sparked a surprisingly fierce argument, and we weigh in on whether it's harmless convenience or a neighborhood crime worthy of public shaming.Then we head to the UK, where a frustrated farmer finally reached his breaking point after people repeatedly parked on his property and damaged his fences. His solution? Covering their cars in manure. Was it justified revenge or did he take things too far?In Celebrity Birthdays, we tackle one of the greatest mysteries of our time: How did Billy Ray Cyrus end up dating Elizabeth Hurley? We also discuss the latest Hollywood train wreck, the troubled Masters of the Universe movie, and Jared Leto's bizarre situation. Why is he reportedly being paid millions while being discouraged from promoting the film? Is Jared Leto secretly cursed?And finally, we meet what might be the United Kingdom's answer to the world's most entertaining rednecks—a man with an unusual obsession involving rats, an incredible collection of t-shirts, and a lifestyle that leaves us with far more questions than answers.Join Trey, Dan, and Rebekah for another episode packed with funny news stories, celebrity commentary, weird people, internet drama, and the kind of conversations that make you glad someone else is making worse decisions than you are.LINKS:Woman Uses Neighbor's Garbage Can For Dog PoopUK Farmer Has Enough of Tourist's ShitIs Jared Leto The Problem?About the show:Leave your worries outside and join Dan O'Malley, Trey Trenholm, and their hilarious guests for laughs about funny news and viral stories with ridiculous commentary inside the Treehouse Show.

Dan Schaefer of Schaefer Beef Consulting tells Kiley Allan about common mistakes producers make when transitioning from dairy to beef. Stu Muck outlines a beautiful day in the Revolution Plastics Ag Weather Update. Is manure feeding your crops like it used to? Division of Extension Specialist Chris Clark tells Stephanie Hoff about her latest research out of the UW Dairy Innovation Hub looking at manure micronutrients and where farms are falling short. Ashley Huhn and Pam Jahnke discuss The Steffes Group's auction calendar and resources for both buyers and sellers. Market advisor John Heinberg of Total Farm Marketing walks Stephanie Hoff through the first USDA crop condition ratings and the recent loss of bullish momentum in the grain markets. Heinberg explains that while early corn and soybean ratings landed slightly below market expectations, the primary downward pressure on prices stems from a typical seasonal peak and heavy global competition from South American harvests. Ultimately, he advises producers to look past early-season weather anxieties and implement defensive risk management strategies before the market historically runs out of steam in mid-June.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Chris Clark, a soil and nutrient management outreach specialist with the Division of Extension, tells Stephanie Hoff about her latest research looking into the micronutrients in manure. She explains that due to EPA air quality improvements, sulfur contributions from acid rain have dropped from 10 pounds per year to less than one pound. Long-term data comparison shows that while several nutrients were tracked, boron and sulfur are the two showing the most significant downward trends in manure. While farmers focus on N-P-K (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium), this research highlights the importance of secondary nutrients like calcium and magnesium, and micronutrients like copper, zinc, and manganese. Many agronomists have already begun instinctively supplementing sulfur between hay cuttings because they noticed deficiencies in plant tissue and soil analyses years ago.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Farmers in Zambia's Kadiani Village are combating climate change and soil degradation by reverting to "kraal shifting," a traditional practice using manure to fertilize sandy soil, which improves moisture retention during droughts. By communal sharing of livestock for this process, the village increases resilience against the high costs and diminishing returns of chemical fertilizers.  This episode is hosted by Ivy Prosper, produced by Claire Hutcheon, and edited by John McGill.

5/5/2026 HOW TO MAKE SUCCESS YOUR T RESPONSE - ITS A CHOICE TO SPROUT ROSES FROM MANUREEPISODE 1776RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO:

This episode of the Real Science Exchange features Dr. Mary Beth Hall, founder of The Cows Are Always Right and former USDA‑ARS scientist, discussing her highly attended Real Science Exchange webinar, Manure Evaluation: Figuring Out What's Going On Between Cows and Their Rations. Joining the pub‑table conversation are Dr. Clay Zimmerman, Dr. Stefano Vandoni, and Dr. Sion Richards. Dr. Mary Beth Hall explains why manure evaluation is one of the most reliable diagnostic tools in dairy nutrition, providing a direct biological response that may not appear in ration models or performance data. She emphasizes why manure must be evaluated alongside cow behavior and production metrics. (09:28) Mary Beth breaks down the science of fecal pH, including how to measure it correctly, why results can be misleading if done improperly, and what fecal pH reveals about digestion beyond the rumen. She explains why fecal pH does not directly reflect rumen pH and how fiber source influences hindgut fermentation. (14:46) The discussion shifts to practical manure screening on farm. Mary Beth explains what to look for when rinsing manure, how undigested fiber or grain can signal rate‑of‑passage and feed processing issues, and why screening is best used as a qualitative diagnostic tool rather than a strict numerical benchmark. (21:36) The panel compares manure evaluation with rumination monitors and emerging dairy technologies, highlighting why sensor data must be interpreted in context with manure consistency, cow behavior, intake patterns, and diet composition to accurately assess cow health. (28:16) Real‑world troubleshooting examples illustrate how ration and management issues—including spoiled silage, feed sorting, inconsistent intake, and water quality problems—often appear first in the manure. Variation within a pen is discussed as an early warning sign for nutrition challenges. (42:14) In closing, the group reinforces why manure evaluation remains underutilized despite being one of the clearest biological indicators of cow health. Integrating manure observation with cow comfort, rumination, feeding management, and overall herd behavior is critical for better nutrition decision‑making.

Given the increasing dominance of right-wing politics by arrogant, super-rich Tech Bros, here's a question about wealth inequality for you barroom philosophers to ponder: Does one have to be born a jackass to become a billionaire, or does becoming a billionaire cause jackassim?Either way, they do seem to go together – as in Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, and so forth, ad nauseum. Oddly, the richer they get, the whinier they become, devolving into over-privileged crybabies.Consider the appalling example of that California clique of Thiel, Zuck, and other Silicon super-richies. They've been caterwauling that if voters approve a proposed wealth tax on billionaires, By Gollies, they'll just up and abandon the state. So? Do they not know that voters know that nearly all tax subsidies have long profited undeserving vainglorious elites like them at everyone else's expense? So excuse us if we don't join their pity party. In fact, most of us commoners would gladly trade that whole pack of pompous plutocrats for a dozen good kindergarten teachers.Besides, it's possible to be both very rich and a decent human being! I've known such people. For example, Texas businessman, Bernard Rapoport, who devoted millions to advancing labor, women, and our state's progressive movement. Or my friends, Ben & Jerry, who've spent their lifetimes and fortunes delivering financial help – and even ice cream! – to grassroots democracy fighters. Then there's the example of heirs to the Pillsbury family fortune – calling themselves the “Pillsbury Doughboys,” then later, “Doughgirls.” They have donated their inheritances to progressive causes benefitting the Common Good.As an East Texas farmer pointed out to me years ago: “Money is like manure. You can't just pile it up. It only works if you spread it across the grassroots.”Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

Manure management is a standard part of Wisconsin farm life, but as operations grow and liquid storage systems become more common, the risks associated with manure pits are trending upward. This is according to UW-Madison Professor and Division of Extension Specialist Rebecca Larson. Whether you’re a seasoned operator or a new hand, here are five critical safety tips to keep in mind before you head out to the pits.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Railroads have long been a staple for Wisconsin agriculture and 2026 is no exception. Brad Peot is the commercial sales manager with WATCO railroad. Watco is a full-service supply chain solutions company. They provide rail, transloading, terminal and port, and logistics services. The company is privately owned and headquartered in Pittsburg, Kansas. Ben Jarboe learns that right now railroads face unique challenges during winter when rivers freeze and barge traffic stops. Extremely cold temperatures slow rail operations because trains rely on air brake systems that work less efficiently in dry, cold conditions. In very cold weather, trains may need to run with fewer railcars to meet air pressure requirements for braking systems. Let's not forget about the crews! They're working in the outdoors to connect and disconnect railcars, creating safety risks like frostbite during extreme cold. Peot says that WATCO is responsible for most of the grain movement in Wisconsin today. Snow piles are starting to disappear thanks to warming temperatures. Stu Muck says today that means a little early morning for. For southern WI, temps will sneak back toward 60 by the weekend. Warmer weather means farms can resume manure management plans in certain areas. Safety has to be a priority. That's the message from Kevin Erb, Conservation and Nutrient Specialist with UW Extension. He tells Kiley Allan that over half of manure-handling accidents occur on the road, with 55% of those happening at intersections due to speed, taking corners too sharply, or failing to account for the sloshing of the liquid in the tank. Approximately 20% of incidents occur when turning into field driveways; many existing culverts and entrances are too narrow for modern, larger farm equipment, requiring infrastructure updates or more cautious maneuvering. It's not just farmers that need to pay attention. Erb says civilian drivers share the responsibility for safety. Motorists are encouraged to practice patience, as attempting to pass wide farm machinery in a hurry often leads to preventable collisions. State senate leaders have wrapped up their work. Pam Jahnke gives a brief rundown on some of the agribusiness and rural related items that are off the governor's desk. Wild winter weather undid the first meeting of the WI Agriculture Youth Council this week. Stephanie Hoff has accepted a board position with WAYC. Others that have been involved with the council include Mary Schreiber, past National FFA Officer from East Troy. She explains the unique human connections she made on the council that turned into friendships on the collegiate level. Likewise, Jersey Thompson from Ettrick is currently a student at Iowa State. He also served as a past WI State FFA President. He says the exposure to people already in key positions for agriculture help inspire the desire for hands on experiences.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
