In today's episode, "Federal Funding for Fish Conservation and Human Health," the crew discusses federal funding, its importance in the lives of fish and how we benefit as humans. We cover the US Fish & Wildlife Service, the US Department of Agriculture, the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Association, the National Institutes of Health, and the Environmental Protection Agency. Most of these agencies cost billions of dollars but they also save us billions in health costs, save countless lives and provide the nearly immeasurable intrinsic value that is resource and conservation services. When you add these all together, they comprise only 5% of the total US federal budget. We chat about the role of each agency, how it helps us and how you can get more information about them. At the end of the day, these agencies have open books because they are accountable to us and we think it's important to take them seriously.This podcast is brought to you by the bony eared assfish.

Send us a textJoin us for a discussion about subclinical mastitis in dairy goats caused by non-aureus Staph species (NAS) with Dr. Michelle Buckley. This research was completed during her time as a post-doctoral associate at Iowa State University with support from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Agricultural and Food Research Initiative Competitive Program, Mitigating Antimicrobial Resistance Across the Food Chain, Grant/Award Number: 2021-69015-33501. Dr. Buckley is currently an Assistant Professor of Clinical Practice at Texas Tech University: https://www.depts.ttu.edu/vetschool/about/meet-our-team/faculty/michelle-buckley/In this episode we discuss two drugs that can be used in an extra-label manner to address subclinical mastitis in dairy goats during the dry period: Orbenin DC (cloxacillin benzathine) and ToMORROW (cephapirin benzathine). Dr. Buckley's work evaluated how long it took for both drugs to leave the goats' bodies after administration in both meat and milk as well as how effective they were at curing subclinical mastitis due to non-aureus Staph. She also evaluated antimicrobial resistance development due to treatment with these long-acting intramammary products. The published work that we discuss is titled "Pharmacokinetics of long acting cephapirin and cloxacillin after intramammary administration in dairy goats" and it can be found in the Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jvp.13445Additional publications will be added to the episode notes as they become available. As part of this research, the Dairy Goat Extension and Education website was developed to provide veterinarians and producers with resources for ensuring antimicrobial stewardship and milk quality in dairy goats. This website includes short video training modules as well as electronic records templates and other useful resources: https://www.dairygoatextension.org/As we mention several times during this episode, the drug use discussed here is extra-label and will require extended withdrawal recommendations to avoid violative residues in the food supply after use.

Kratom is currently legal in the U.S. but a better scientific understanding is needed about its safety, efficacy, and potential therapeutic applications for opioid use disorder and withdrawal. The USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture has awarded a $650,000 grant to University of Florida and its Institute of Food & Agricultural Science to study the kratom plant's genome, gene expression and metabolites to try and get a better handle on how it affects the body, and help researchers begin to understand whether it could someday be used as a more formal way of addressing opioid addiction and withdrawal. We talk with one of the researchers to learn more.

Ron DeSantis wants to keep lab-grown meat out of Florida. Over the last several months, Florida legislators have been quietly working to ban — and criminalize — the production and sale of cell-cultivated meat across the state, via the introduction of two bills, House Bill 1071 and Senate Bill 1084. On February 6, the state's House of Representatives passed Senate Bill 1084, which now sits on DeSantis' desk awaiting a signature. And if his previous comments are any indication, he will be pulling out his pen soon. "I know the Legislature is doing a bill to try to protect our meat," DeSantis said in February while visiting the South Florida State College Hardee Campus, "You need meat, and we're going to have meat in Florida." DeSantis added, "We're not going to have fake meat. That doesn't work." Cell-cultivated meat, to be clear, differs from traditional veggie burgers and meat alternatives like Impossible Burgers. As the Congressional Research Service (CRS) defines, Cell-cultivated meat "is developed in a lab, grown from a sample of animal cells that does not require the slaughter of animals." The development of cell-cultivated meat, the CRS explained, happens in five steps: the biopsy of animal cells, cell banking, cell growth, harvesting, and food processing. It's an industry that has heavy oversight in the U.S. by both the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). As the CRS noted, there are about 150 companies around the world involved in the cell-cultivated meat industry, 43 of which are based in the U.S. Of those 43, just two companies, Good Meat and Upside Food, have FDA approval in the U.S. While it's still a relatively small industry, it's one with major financial backing. According to the CRS, some $3 billion has been invested in its growth via private capital, and an additional $5 million has been issued via the National Science Foundation in research grants, along with an additional $12 million in grants by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture. Florida, however, isn't alone in its pursuit to block the production and sale of this type of meat. As Fast Company reported, Tennessee is considering a similar bill that would impose a $1 million fine for selling cultivated meat. Alabama also passed a bill to ban the sale and manufacturing of it, making it a Class C felony. This means that if you're caught selling cell-cultivated meat there, you could wind up in prison for up to 10 years. And, as Food Dive reported, Texas also implemented legislation around how cultivated meat can be labeled and marketed. More from this article can be found HERE. Ranchers Urge BLM To Incorporate Latest Science In New Sage Grouse Plans The National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) and Public Lands Council (PLC) responded to the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) release of the updated greater sage grouse management plans. These plans will shape public land use across 10 different states and tens of millions of Western acres. After completing revisions to the plans in 2015 and again in 2019, the agency is currently amending 77 separate land use plans across the West, and could potentially designate millions of acres as new Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACECs). Despite this incredibly expansive scope, the BLM provided only 90 days to comment on the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and only 60 days to comment on proposed Areas of Critical Environmental Concern. Here is the background. The sage grouse habitat has been declining across the West due to a variety of factors including catastrophic wildfires, urban development, and the spread of invasive grasses. As a result, more than half of the remaining prime sage grouse habitat exists on BLM acres. The pressures on sage grouse habitat vary from state to state, from ecosystem to ecosystem, and sometimes from county to county. One-size-fits-all conservation strategies are ineffective for this species. Habitat management must be tailored to local needs in order to achieve the best results for the bird. The expertise of local stakeholders, like federal grazing permittees, will be crucial for conserving the species. The Public Lands Council President and Colorado federal grazing permittee, Mark Roeber said years of research, including a very recent and comprehensive 10-year study, support the fact that managed livestock grazing is compatible and can actually benefit the bird. He went on to say the agency must look at the science, and leverage livestock grazing as a tool for strengthening the sagebrush steppe, preventing wildfire, and conserving this iconic species.” For Additional details check out the full article HERE UPCOMING BULL SALES ANGUS CHAROLAIS HEREFORD GELBVIEH BALANCER RED ANGUS SIMMENTAL SIMANGUS Miller Angus Farms: March 25, 2024, Watertown, South Dakota L 83 Ranch: March 26, 2024, Mandan, ND Vollmer Angus Ranch: April 2, 2024, Wing, North Dakota A & B Cattle: April 4, 2024, Bassett, Nebraska Montgomery Ranch: April 14, 2024, Carrington, North Dakota Jorgensen Farms: April 15, 2024, Ideal, South Dakota DLCC Ranch: April 20, 2024, Pierz, Minnesota BULL SALE REPORT & RESULTS Churchill Cattle Company Van Newkirk Herefords Gardiner Angus Ranch Cow Camp Ranch Jungels Shorthorn Farms Ellingson Angus Edgar Brothers Angus Schaff Angus Valley Prairie Hills Gelbvieh Clear Springs Cattle Company CK Cattle Mrnak Hereford Ranch Frey Angus Ranch Hoffmann Angus Farms Topp Herefords River Creek Farms Upstream Ranch Gustin's Diamond D Gelbvieh Schiefelbein Farms Wasem Red Angus Raven Angus Krebs Ranch Yon Family Farms Chestnut Angus Eichacker Simmentals & JK Angus Windy Creek Cattle Company Pedersen Broken Heart Ranch Mar Mac Farms Warner Beef Genetics Arda Farms & Freeway Angus Leland Red Angus & Koester Red Angus Fast - Dohrmann - Strommen RBM Livestock Weber Land & Cattle Sundsbak Farms Hidden Angus Wheatland Cattle Company FEATURING Derek Thompson NextGen Cattle Company https://www.nextgencattle.com/ @nextgencattle Bryce Kelley Ritchey Livestock ID https://ritcheytags.com/ @RitcheyLivestockID Kirk Donsbach: Stone X Financial https://www.stonex.com/ @StoneXGroupInc John Fischer Stockmen's Livestock Exchange, Inc. http://www.gostockmens.com/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100095025190101&sk=photos https://www.cattleusa.com/ Mark Van Zee Livestock Market, Equine Market, Auction Time https://www.auctiontime.com/ https://www.livestockmarket.com/ https://www.equinemarket.com/ @LivestockMkt @EquineMkt @AuctionTime Shaye Koester Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ @cattleconvos Questions & Concerns From The Field?

Food waste and loss are a growing concern around the world. Food left in the fields. Food not pretty enough for supermarket display cases. The list goes on and on. All too often perfectly good food ends up in landfills or is left to rot in the field. But, is there a role for animal agriculture when it comes to possibly providing a solution to the food waste situation and, if so, what might that look like? Joining us in the episode of Feedstuffs in Focus to talk about food waste as an alternative animal feed ingredient is Dr. Jerry Shurson of the University of Minnesota. We also discuss a free online conference focused on fostering a discussion around the challenges and opportunities related to food waste for livestock. That conference is hosted by the University of Minnesota, University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University and Feedstuffs with the goal of communicating and educating those in the feed and feeding industries globally about the value of food waste for livestock in the backdrop of food, climate, and sustainability challenges.The conference will be held March 26, 27 and 28. Attendee registration for this free event is recommended.Conference sponsors include the North American Renderers Association, World Wildlife Fund, International Ingredients Corp., American Feed Industry Association and the US Grains Council. This conference is also supported by a USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Agriculture and Food Research Initiative Competitive Grant.

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Bob Smith, Dr. Kathy Bjork and Marlene Azvedo to discuss the Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Program administered by the United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture. We start the conversation by describing the VMLRP history and funding. The VMLRP is a nationally competitive opportunity for qualified veterinarians to reduce their educational debt by agreeing to provide professional veterinary services for three years in designated, high priority, veterinary food supply shortage situations throughout the U.S. and its insular areas. Minimum new service contracts are for three years and for up to $75,000 in loan repayments, dispersed in quarterly payments. Successful applicants can also apply for renewal contracts. A fact sheet about the program can be found at this link. Our guests discuss the recently released Fiscal Year 2022 Annual Report, which can be found on this page. A total of 130 applications were received and 89 awards executed for an award rate of 64% for new applications and 100% for renewals applications. Total funding for the award was $8,926,394 and an additional $2,592,278 in federal tax funding. The average debt for new awardees was $163,576 and for renewal awards the average debt was $108,813. Cow-calf practice was identified as the species with the most needs in the designated shortage areas. Smith describes the process for state animal health officials (SAHO) to nominate shortage areas in their state and encouraged veterinarians to work with their SAHO to ensure their area is nominated if it qualifies. Our guests also provide information for potential applicants to consider when applying for the next funding cycle. The timeline for the next funding cycle can be found at this link. For more information, please visit the USDA NIFA VMLRP page.
A full video interview is available with English subtitles on the Cultivemos YouTube channel.La entrevista completa en vídeo está disponible con subtítulos en inglés en el canal de YouTube de Cultivemos.Descripción:Advertencia sobre el contenido: En este episodio se habla de suicidio.Más del 60% de los trabajadores agrícolas de EE. UU. se sienten más cómodos conversando en español. Y también tienen necesidades de salud mental. Pero cuando se trata de salud mental, su experiencia viene determinada por su cultura. Así que no podemos limitarnos a traducir los mismos consejos al español; tenemos que abordar los problemas específicos a los que se enfrentan los agricultores hispanos.En este episodio, hablamos con Eustacio Mil Quino, Jaime Cardoso Zúñiga y Ernesto Villegas González, tres agricultores de origen mexicano de Hudson Valley Farm Hub. Hablamos con ellos sobre sus experiencias con la salud mental, cómo se ve de manera diferente en México, y cómo lidian con el estrés en sus vidas. Además, cómo están cambiando las actitudes culturales y los obstáculos específicos para los inmigrantes mexicanos.Acompáñenos a explorar este importante tema. Más de tres cuartas partes de los trabajadores agrícolas de EE.UU. se identifican como hispanos. Si no satisfacemos sus necesidades, estamos fracasando, y puede que el sistema alimentario también.Reflejos:Por qué estos agricultores vinieron a Estados Unidos (3:09)Discriminación (6:17)Barreras a la atención sanitaria mental (8:51)Actitudes culturales hacia la salud mental (10:44)Estrategias para afrontar el estrés (14:42)La experiencia de Eustacio con el suicidio (16:00)El poder de una mano amiga (16:51)Cómo afecta tu salud mental a tu familia (19:31)Cómo están cambiando las actitudes (22:41) Enlaces:Suicide Prevention Lifeline - EspañolCentro de Recursos para la Prevención del SuicidioCultivemosFood FirstCultivemos YouTubeCultivemos InstagramCultivemos FacebookRecursos CultivemosHudson Valley Farm HubHudson Valley Farm Hub - Guía de justicia lingüísticaComentarios:Si tienes preguntas sobre el programa o sobre temas que te gustaría que se trataran en futuros episodios, envíanos un correo electrónico a cultivemos@youngfarmers.orgEste trabajo cuenta con el proyecto 2020-70028-32729 Instituto nacional de alimentos y agricultura (NIFA, por sus siglas en inglés) del Departamento de agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA, por sus siglas en inglés) y la Red de asistencia para el estrés en fincas y ranchos del noreste (FRSAN, por sus siglas en inglés).Description:Content warning: This episode contains discussions of suicide.More than 60% of farm workers in the US feel more comfortable conversing in Spanish. And they have mental health needs too! But when it comes to mental health, your experience is shaped by your culture. So we can't just translate the same advice into Spanish; we have to address the specific issues that Hispanic farmers face.On this episode, we spoke with Eustacio Mil Quino, Jaime Cardoso Zúñiga, and Ernesto Villegas González–three Mexican-born farmers at Hudson Valley Farm Hub. We spoke to them about their experiences with mental health, how it's seen differently in Mexico, and how they deal with stress in their lives.

But while the effects of mental health are felt on a personal level, many of the root causes are systemic, built into the institutions that govern and fund agriculture. To be successful, the project for farmer mental health must include systemic change. But how do we achieve that change?On this episode, we explore two different approaches: changing institutions from the inside and from the outside. We'll compare the relative benefits–and limits–of working in the legislature vs. your own community, and why the road to change may lie somewhere in between.Together with Minkah Taharkah and TemuAsyr Martin Bey, two members of the California Farmer Justice Collaborative, we explore the worlds of grassroots activism and federal lobbying, and discuss how you–yes, you!–can contribute to a cause, build a movement, and take care of yourself while you do it. Highlights:Big problems require big solutions (2:47)Institutions have the resources (4:32)Our cultural champions are right here (7:29)Systemic problems affect us on an individual level (8:28)Sometimes we need solutions faster than institutions can provide them (9:28)If we don't embrace institutions, we allow other people to run our resources (11:46)Are we prepared to run the world (12:40)California Farmer Justice Collaborative as model (14:41)The power of a combined approach (16:15)It starts with connections (19:05)There's a place for everyone (20:05)Educating yourself and others (21:07)Do the boring work (23:03)Our movements are only as well as we are (25:46)Systemic change is a marathon, not a sprint (28:25) Links:Video Interview with Minkah TaharkahVideo Interview with TemuAsyr Martin BeyCultivemosCultivemos YouTubeCultivemos InstagramCultivemos FacebookCultivemos ResourcesCalifornia Farmer Justice CollaborativeAsyr's Bridge Sankofa GardensTemuAsyr Martin Bey LinkedInMinkah Taharkah LinkedInFeedback:If you have questions about the show or topics you'd like discussed in future episodes, email us at cultivemos@youngfarmers.orgThis work is supported by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network (FRSAN) project 2020-70028-32729.Descripción:¿Estamos preparados para dirigir el mundo?Estamos inmersos en una crisis de salud mental de los agricultores. Pero aunque los efectos de la salud mental se dejan sentir a nivel personal, muchas de las causas profundas son sistémicas, están integradas en las instituciones que gobiernan y financian la agricultura. Para tener éxito, el proyecto de salud mental de los agricultores debe incluir un cambio sistémico. Pero, ¿cómo lograr ese cambio?En este episodio exploramos dos enfoques diferentes: cambiar las instituciones desde dentro y desde fuera. Compararemos los beneficios relativos -y los límites- de trabajar en el poder legislativo frente a la propia comunidad, y por qué el camino hacia el cambio puede estar en algún punto intermedio.Junto con Minkah Taharkah y TemuAsyr Martin Bey, dos miembros de la California Farmer Justice Collaborative, exploraremos los mundos del activismo de base y el cabildeo federal, y discutiremos cómo tú -sí, tú- puedes contribuir a una causa, construir un movimiento y cuidarte mientras lo haces.Reflejos:Los grandes problemas requieren grandes soluciones (2:47)Las instituciones tienen los recursos (4:32)Nuestros campeones culturales están aquí (7:29)Los problemas sistémicos nos afectan a nivel individual (8:28)A veces necesitamos soluciones más rápido de lo que las instituciones pueden proporcionarlas (9:28)Si no adoptamos las instituciones, permitimos que otras personas gestionen nuestros recursos (11:46)¿Estamos preparados para dirigir el mundo?California Farmer Justice Collaborative como modelo (14:41)El poder de un enfoque combinado (16:15)Todo empieza con las conexiones (19:05)Hay sitio para todos (20:05)Educarse a uno mismo y a los demás (21:07)Haz el trabajo aburrido (23:03)Nuestros movimientos son tan buenos como nosotros mismos (25:46)El cambio sistémico es un maratón, no un sprint (28:25) Enlaces:Entrevista en vídeo con Minkah TaharkahEntrevista en vídeo con TemuAsyr Martin BeyCultivemosCultivemos YouTubeCultivemos InstagramCultivemos FacebookRecursos CultivemosCalifornia Farmer Justice CollaborativePuente de AsyrJardines SankofaTemuAsyr Martin Bey LinkedInMinkah Taharkah LinkedInComentarios:Si tienes preguntas sobre el programa o sobre temas que te gustaría que se trataran en futuros episodios, envíanos un correo electrónico a cultivemos@youngfarmers.orgEste trabajo cuenta con el proyecto 2020-70028-32729 Instituto nacional de alimentos y agricultura (NIFA, por sus siglas en inglés) del Departamento de agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA, por sus siglas en inglés) y la Red de asistencia para el estrés en fincas y ranchos del noreste (FRSAN, por sus siglas en inglés).#MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #FoodSystemResilience #FoodSovereignty #FoodJustice #cultivemos #foodfirst
La entrevista completa con Rev Dele está disponible con subtítulos en español en la página de Cultivemos en YouTube.The full interview with Rev Dele is available with Spanish subtitles on the Cultivemos YouTube channel.Description:We have to reimagine our relationship with the land.Farmers are experiencing a crisis of land access. The number of farms is decreasing and the cost of farm real estate has nearly doubled in the past decade, shutting out many prospective farmers. That's especially true for BIPOC farmers: 98% of farmland is owned by white landowners. With better land access, farming would be more sustainable, achievable and diverse. Without it, farmers can't farm.But there's another harm that's hidden within the crisis of land access. It's harder to measure, but no less important. With land out of reach, fewer and fewer people have a relationship with the earth. That means, fewer and fewer people are getting the healing benefits of land: wonder, refuge, calm, even wealth and liberation. To move forward, we have to reimagine our relationship with the land.So on today's episode, we speak with two people who are committed to creating relationships with the land. Danielle Peláez is the Education Coordinator at Soul Fire Farm. Through their programming, they create opportunities for Afro-Indigenous people to forge lasting relationships with the earth. Rev Dele is a Black, Indigenous minister, who is teaching the church how to model sustainability. Through her initiatives, Soil & Souls and the Indigenous Mothers Community Land Trust, she's sharing the Earth's healing and pursuing land sovereignty for her community. A better future starts with our imagination. So join us, as we reimagine our relationship with the land, and find strategies for sharing its bounty with others.

El número de explotaciones está disminuyendo y el coste de la propiedad agrícola casi se ha duplicado en la última década, dejando fuera a muchos posibles agricultores. Esto es especialmente cierto para los agricultores BIPOC: el 98% de las tierras agrícolas son propiedad de terratenientes blancos. Con un mejor acceso a la tierra, la agricultura sería más sostenible, asequible y diversa. Sin él, los agricultores no pueden cultivar.Pero hay otro perjuicio oculto en la crisis del acceso a la tierra. Es más difícil de medir, pero no por ello menos importante. Con la tierra fuera de su alcance, cada vez menos personas tienen una relación con la tierra. Eso significa que cada vez menos personas obtienen los beneficios curativos de la tierra: asombro, refugio, calma, incluso riqueza y liberación.

Content warning: This episode contains discussions of suicide.Rates for depression are higher in rural America than in urban areas; and according to the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide rates among people living in rural areas are 64 to 68 percent higher compared to people living in large urban areas. Public health awareness campaigns that work in cities aren't cutting it in the countryside. Rural communities require a different communication approach.That's where Jeff Winton comes in. Jeff runs Wall Street Dairy in upstate New York, and he's the founder of Rural Minds, a 501c3 nonprofit with the mission to serve as the informed voice for mental health in rural America and to provide mental health information and resources. The organization's vision is a rural America where there's no more stigma, silence, or suffering around mental illness.Jeff founded Rural Minds in response to the suicide of his 28-year-old nephew, Brooks Winton. On this episode, we'll discuss Jeff and Brooks' story, and how they aim to raise awareness and remove stigma around mental illness in rural America. Recognizing that self-reliance and a do-it-yourself mindset are common among many individuals who live in rural communities, Rural Minds is partnering with individuals and organizations to help empower rural Americans with information, resources, and training to become part of the solution to improving rural mental health and preventing suicide.Highlights:Jeff Winton's background (1:44)Mental health organizations are struggling to reach rural America (5:29)Brooks Winton and the origins of Rural Minds (6:44)Why rural populations are more at risk for mental illness (11:41)Cultural expectations of independence (14:47)Why Jeff was honest about suicide in Brooks' eulogy (16:03)The power of telling your story (17:35)Raising awareness through trusted organizations (21:31)Mental health resources (23:37)Links:CultivemosCultivemos YouTubeCultivemos InstagramCultivemos FacebookCultivemos ResourcesRural MindsRural Minds Moving Forward NewsletterRural Suicide Prevention and AwarenessRural Mental Health Connections Webinar SeriesRural Mental Health Crisis Fact SheetConnect with Rural Minds on FacebookConnect with Rural Minds on TwitterConnect with Rural Minds on InstagramConnect with Rural Minds on LinkedInFeedback:If you have questions about the show or topics you'd like discussed in future episodes, email us at cultivemos@youngfarmers.orgThis work is supported by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network (FRSAN) project 2020-70028-32729.Descripción:Advertencia sobre el contenido: En este episodio se habla de suicidio.Los índices de depresión son más altos en las zonas rurales de Estados Unidos que en las urbanas; y según los últimos datos de los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades, los índices de suicidio entre las personas que viven en zonas rurales son entre un 64 y un 68 por ciento más altos en comparación con las personas que viven en grandes zonas urbanas. Las campañas de concienciación sanitaria que funcionan en las ciudades no sirven en el campo. Las comunidades rurales requieren un enfoque de comunicación diferente.Ahí es donde entra Jeff Winton. Jeff dirige Wall Street Dairy, al norte del estado de Nueva York, y es el fundador de Rural Minds, una organización sin ánimo de lucro 501c3 cuya misión es ser la voz informada de la salud mental en las zonas rurales de Estados Unidos y proporcionar información y recursos sobre salud mental. La visión de la organización es una América rural donde no haya más estigma, silencio o sufrimiento en torno a la enfermedad mental.Jeff fundó Rural Minds en respuesta al suicidio de su sobrino de 28 años, Brooks Winton. En este episodio, hablaremos de la historia de Jeff y Brooks, y de cómo pretenden concienciar y eliminar el estigma en torno a las enfermedades mentales en la América rural. Reconociendo que la autosuficiencia y la mentalidad de "hágalo usted mismo" son comunes entre muchas personas que viven en comunidades rurales, Rural Minds se asocia con individuos y organizaciones para ayudar a empoderar a los estadounidenses rurales con información, recursos y capacitación para convertirse en parte de la solución para mejorar la salud mental rural y prevenir el suicidio.Reflejos:La trayectoria de Jeff Winton (1:44)Las organizaciones de salud mental luchan por llegar a la América rural (5:29)Brooks Winton y los orígenes de Rural Minds (6:44)Por qué las poblaciones rurales corren más riesgo de padecer enfermedades mentales (11:41)Expectativas culturales de independencia (14:47)Por qué Jeff fue sincero sobre el suicidio en el elogio de Brooks (16:03)El poder de contar tu historia (17:35)Sensibilización a través de organizaciones de confianza (21:31)Recursos de salud mental (23:37)Enlaces:CultivemosCultivemos YouTubeCultivemos InstagramCultivemos FacebookRecursos CultivemosRural MindsRural Minds Boletín “Moving Forward”Prevención y concienciación del suicidio en zonas ruralesSerie de seminarios web sobre conexiones de salud mental en zonas ruralesHoja informativa sobre crisis de salud mental ruralConecte con Rural Minds en FacebookConectar con Rural Minds en TwitterConectar con Rural Minds en InstagramConectar con Rural Minds en LinkedInComentarios:Si tienes preguntas sobre el programa o sobre temas que te gustaría que se trataran en futuros episodios, envíanos un correo electrónico a cultivemos@youngfarmers.orgEste trabajo cuenta con el proyecto 2020-70028-32729 Instituto nacional de alimentos y agricultura (NIFA, por sus siglas en inglés) del Departamento de agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA, por sus siglas en inglés) y la Red de asistencia para el estrés en fincas y ranchos del noreste (FRSAN, por sus siglas en inglés).#MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #FoodSystemResilience #FoodSovereignty #FoodJustice #cultivemos #foodfirst

The consequences of global warming affect farmers more than almost any other profession. A warming climate means increased droughts, heavy rain, unpredictable storms, and a fluctuating growing season, all of which can threaten a farmer's bottom line. But climate change also poses big, existential questions: What kind of world am I leaving behind? Can we respond fast enough as a society? Am I doing enough?These connected worries all fall under the umbrella of “climate anxiety.” And it's the combination of practical and existential threats that makes climate anxiety uniquely difficult to deal with. But it also means there are a lot of ways to approach it. Today, we talk to Wichie Artu (Magnetic Fields Farm – Athens, VT) and Dr. Nadine Burton (Tallawah Farms – Princess Anne, MD) two farmers who are using “specialty crops” to address a variety of issues presented by climate change. Together, we'll cover how to mitigate storm damage, protect from crop loss, and adapt your practices to minimize your environmental impact and feed a changing world.Join us as we explore the ways you can regain control and find local solutions to a global problem.Resources & Links:· Magnetic Fields Farm· Tallawah Farms· University of Maryland-Eastern Shore· Dr. Monica Marie White - Founder, Office of Environmental Justice & Engagement – University of Wisconsin-Madison· Collective Agency and Community Resilience: A Theoretical Framework to Understand Agricultural Resistance – Monica Marie White, Journal of Agriculture, Food Systems, & Community Development· USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture – Climate Change Programs· Northeast Organic Farming Association· Farm Bureau - Farmers for a Sustainable Future· Farmers.gov – Specialty Crops· Climate Resilient Farming Grant (NY Only)Feedback:If you have questions about the show or topics you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, andrew@lowerstreet.coA podcast from Cultivemos (FRSAN-NE)

Claudio Gratton's entomology research focuses on how our agricultural landscapes influence the lives of beneficial insects. In this podcast, Claudio sits down for a conversation with a former student of his, Dr. Jeremy Hemberger. Hemberger, Gratton, and their colleague Michael Crossley have just released a paper showing that it is not necessarily the amount of land in agriculture, but the diversity (or lack thereof) of agricultural crops that has the greatest impact on bumblebees. Their research supports the idea that agriculture can provide ecological benefits and support beneficial insects as long as it mimics the biological diversity of healthy grasslands. To learn more about this research, or to see the excellent illustrations developed for the project, you can visit the Gratton lab website at https://gratton.entomology.wisc.edu/ This research was recently featured at https://news.wisc.edu/midwest-bumble-bees-declined-with-more-farmed-land-less-diverse-crops-since-1870/This podcast is made possible thanks to a Sustainable Agricultural Systems Coordinated Agriculture grant from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
