The UN Task Force on the Food Crisis Favors Corporate Farming By Ignoring The Definitive State of the Art Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology That’s Pertinent To Rural Development. The IAASTD recommendations came like a breath of fresh air after years of the smells from feedlots and industrial farms. The gist is that region-by-region, the world’s farmers consider using agroecological methods, such as cover crops, integrated pest management, farmer-saved seed, grazing livestock, instead of fossil-fuel intensive methods, such as chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, herbicide resistant GMO seeds. For instance, agroecology resolves the twin perils of using feedlots for meat production: managing mountains of livestock manure without injuring ground and surface waters, and growing feed for the livestock without depleting soils of nutrients, loading them with chemical residues, reducing biodiversity and creating excess greenhouse gasses. An agroecological method returns livestock to grazing, which utilizes the livestock to disperse their ...
