According to a fresh set of advisories from the United Nations, catastrophic soil losses are forecast to occur within 60 years they say. Moreover this “soil degradation,” as CNBC referred to it as, $23 trillion in losses food and other things like medicine could occur by the year 2050.
The causes for this soil degradation include ‘unsustainable agricultural practices, overgrazing, deforestation and improper land use.’ On top of that, the UN is warning that by 2050 yield from crops will reduce another 10% – equivalent to removing millions of acres of land.
Soil is the habitat for over a quarter of the planet’s biodiversity. Each gram of soil contains millions of cells of bacteria and fungi that play very important role in all ecosystem services.
Reza Afshar, chief scientist at the regenerative agriculture research farm at the Rodale Institute, told CNBC.
CNBC additionally wrote, ‘The Rodale Institute, the birthplace of modern organic agriculture, is home to the longest-running side-by-side comparison of organic and conventional grain cropping systems in North America. The research has found regenerative, organic agriculture produces yields up to 40% higher during droughts, can earn farmers greater profits and releases 40% fewer carbon emissions than conventional agricultural practices.’
CNBC produced a short documentary on the threat of these shortage, where climate change is also blamed for this, and tilling the fields as being one of things to blame, but also gave praise to regenerative farming and grazing as a means to renew the soil.
Moreover, as not fleshed out in the CNBC report, nutrition in the soil has been severely reduced over the years because of its over-cultivation and tilling. Alternative and natural health doctor Eric Berg has presented another theory to this, and explains that the real issue is not the lack of nutrients in the soil, but is actually due to fungal imbalances preventing the crops from properly absorbing the nutrients.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
1 Corinthians 15:33
These gaslighters at the UN and CNBC are pointing at the problem, and are even offering proven and effective solutions, but they know full good and well they will not be implemented. It is the same United Nations, along with the World Economic Forum, the Vatican, and so on; that are all saying global meat production and consumption will evaporate by extreme rates by 2030, and especially by 2050, and farming will have to be micromanaged in an autonomous setting.
As part of Pope Francis’ Laudato si’ mumbo jumbo, he and the Vatican have stated they want things like “sustainable production and consumption, ethical investments, divestment from fossil fuels and any activity harmful to the planet and the people, supporting circular economies, and prioritizing care labour and protecting the dignity of workers;” and “reducing waste and recycling, adopting sustainable dietary habits (opting for a more plant-based diet and reducing meat consumption), greater use of public transport, active mobility (walking, cycling), and avoiding single use items (e.g. plastic, etc.).”
Pope Francis Launches Seven Year Laudato Si’ To Further Agenda Absolute Zero
Moreover, The WP reported last year that during the COP26 climate conference for hypocrites and puppets, Biden made pledges to sequester more forestland from the American people; and Bill Gates becoming the largest owner of farmland in the states – a man who wants GMO and gene-edited crops, and cell-cultured “meats.”
So, the point is, the media is pointing at some of the solutions, knowing they will not be implemented. And if they were to be, it would cause great famine in the land for the broad masses, as companies and farms would have to adjust overnight and stymie all operations.
But what you need to get out of this article is the media is indirectly signaling that famine is a guarantee, it’s coming, and it will be really bad.
As a quick note, tilling in of itself is not a bad thing, but the modern and conventional way it has been done destroys the soil, along the inorganic and toxic fertilizers that are used.
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.
Proverbs 12:11
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

good grief, what next?
They’ve been talking about this since the Dust Bowl, but making policies that made it economic suicide to do anything about. Still, farmers went to no-till in many cases, and back to planting cover crops. While lots of homesteaders, small specialty farms (organic, herbs, grass-fed), & the Amish & Mennonite still practice the old ways, even giving the land a sabbath & just using it for grazing that year.

Anything & anyone truly Christian, or even just seen as ‘Christian’ in the world’s eyes, has been censored & persecuted, & where they could, crushed along the way so that all we have left now is the dialectic antichrist trash with their earth-worshipping folly & bestial behavior coming along with it. There’s a reason for that. Even Berg subtly demonizes what God says is good in his word, Jesus and the word even being the bread of life….and not teaching that messing with the physical body terrain of man, and genetic modification & glyphosate compounded by improper food preparation (no soaking, fermentation etc to counter the big, bad phytates) is the REAL problem. Subtle sophist blasphemous devils who then control the narrative with their games & selective censorship.

It’s the big centralized corporate farms and those arrogant ‘superior’ gnostics who never get their hands dirty, becoming ever more effeminate & soft on one hand…..coarsened of conscience, ever more prideful, hard and cruel soulishly until utterly possessed & greedy looking for the illegitimate gain who drive the destruction with their purposeful dumbing down & subtle demoralization, skillfully playing the lusts & sins of godless and/or careless men and women, especially the untried, inexperienced young like a whole orchestra of pipes & tabrets & strings. So subtle that if it were possible it would deceive the very elect.

There are those already building Jesuit style reduccione type farms in Mexico for the slaves strong enough to survive the culling. They raise the stuff they make tequila from, though it’s romanticized as a superfood with no mention of the tequila part. That’s how the subtle poisoners of minds, souls and bodies work. Subtly, trespassing every boundary while wiping their mouths and saying they’ve done nothing wrong, deceiving the simple, and in the dark…..like the unfaithful, subtle father of lies master they serve to their own destruction…..the deceiving and being deceived, evil men and seducers waxing worse and worse.

BUT even so, come Lord Jesus: there is a Book… Revelation 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Your articles are outstanding, but some of your English grammar grates on the mind. Referring to the United Nations, for example, in the plural eliminates it as an organization. It implies that a group of nations is united. Also, in other articles, your authors assign a plural verb to the last plural noun in the string instead of the noun within the independent clause.
Example: your authors would write “a group of nations are united…” However, the active verb to be expressed as “are” in this case, should be singular (“is”) and should modify the word group which is in the independent clause. The correct expression of this string is: a group of nations is…, with the verb to be (is, in this case) modifying group, not nations which is within the dependent clause. The word “of” is your clue to a dependent clause.
The United Nations IS (whatever it is), not are.
