While teaching up at the Lodge at Pine Cove this past weekend we came across lots of tracks and sign. Tons of Sawfly (wasplike insects) cocoons, some leaf miners, galls a plenty, Eastern Chipmunk (Tamias striatus) holes and feeding sign, Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) and Moose (Alces alces) scat and lots more. But there was one bit of sign that was really annoying me… something I wasn't sure about. There were mussel shells laying about all along the rivers edge. Along the beach, the rocky cove, and all across the depths of the French River. They had all been opened, most split at the hinge, some cracked, many fragile and crumbling apart when put a bit of pressure on them. Someone had been feeding on these mussels for quite a few years it seemed, and I wanted to, maybe even needed to, figure this mussel mystery out. What kind of mussel whose remains I was finding? Who are the animals who live in this place that consume them? Who was leaving these middens about? Did they leave any other clues behind? Why couldn't I find anything? I really get into puzzles sometimes and this one made for a great distraction from the anxious excitement of teaching in a new place. This episode was recorded just after sunrise, along a wet winding trail in the mist of a gentle rain. It was awesome. Corrections : While I said something along the lines of Clams and Mussels are the same, I think this is incorrect. There seems to be differences based on structure of their shells and how they attach or burrow into substrates. To learn more :Bird Tracks and Sign by Mark Elbroch and Eleanor Marks.

Bre shares her research on mussel monitoring in Eau Claire County, revealing a significant decline in mussel population and species abundance since the 2012 survey. This decline is attributed to water pollution, degradation, and infrastructure development.  Bre and her team followed protocols from the Wisconsin Muscle Monitoring Program and enlisted volunteers to survey the streams.

Some farmers who already rely on state benefits are being told they need to look for paid work and ditch their farm businesses if they want to continue receiving those benefits. It's happening because of changes in the way welfare is delivered, so farmers on Tax Credits are now being switched to Universal Credit. But eligibility for Universal Credit is calculated using monthly income and expenditure, which doesn't sit well with farm businesses where these can vary enormously depending on the season. The transition process has been described by famers as a nightmare and, as we'll be hearing shortly, it's also having an impact on mental health.And CCTV… for fish! John Holmyard runs a ‘rope-cultured' offshore mussel farm in Lyme Bay about 5 miles off the south coast of Devon.

Is a floating dairy farm a solution for climate change?

The Floating Farm is one of the latest attempts to think outside the box when it comes to adapting to climate change. Mussel farms or attempts to grow kelp and other sea vegetation might be expected, but not a three-story dairy operation. The Floating Farm has been operational since 2019 and bills itself as the world's floating dairy farm. It aims to have a closed loop of production, using its own waste and recycling. The cows graze on hay and the rinds of oranges salvaged from supermarket juice machines in the port city. They drink collected rain water from the canopies which protect them from the weather. Robots are used to milk them and mop up their manure which is used as organic fertilizer. The Floating Farm sells the milk, cheese and buttermilk produced by the cows in a small shop on dry land next to its harbor berth. “Countries are more and more looking to be self-sufficient in one or another way, and of course climate change is a big thing, because a lot of countries, they suffer from flooding or dry period. So, when you have a floating farm, you are climate adaptive, so you can keep on producing fresh healthy food for the city,” says Minke van Wingerden, owner of the Floating Farm. Van Wingerden believes putting farms on the water enables people to access fresh produce near to the cities they live in. Van Wingerden says the cow's welfare is closely monitored. “There are a lot of vets, they are coming and seeing how they are doing. But we see that they are doing very well, their fur is shiny, they are curious, they produce a lot of milk, and the quality of the milk is very good. So everything is going very well, and we are happy about that,” she says. She believes the volume of visitors the farm attracts is a testament to the interest people have “not only in the agricultural side, but also in the innovation projects.” This article was provided by The Associated Press.
