Zack Smith joins ATR to discuss the USDA Crop Report, the Harris campaign’s proposal to put price controls on food, the signals that farmer suicides are increasing and to talk about the price of land if you were to be buying it with Bitcoin.Zack Smith is the founder of the Stock Cropper livestock system which is strip intercropping that consisted of alternating strips of corn and annual pasture. The pasture strips were to be grazed by multiple species of livestock and be contained away from the neighboring strips of corn. To do this, they conjured up the world’s first multi-species mobile grazing barn that would house and support sheep, goats, pigs and chickens. They called their mobile barn system the “ClusterCluck 5000” and the farming system “Stock Cropping”. Stock Cropping would go on to be defined as the re-intersection of livestock and crops working together in a closed loop, low carbon intensive, synergistic field arrangement.The Ag Tribes Report is sponsored by FarmTest.ag Link to The Stock Cropper Website: https://thestockcropper.com/Link to Eventbrite to sign up for the Stock Cropper Field Day August 24 at 2PM: https://t.co/9xF0PHajEO Story links:From the Washington Post: Kamala Harris to propose ban on ‘price gouging’ for food, groceries https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/08/15/kamala-harris-economic-policy-2024/ From Agriculture.com USDA increases 2024 corn production and demand, lowers ending stocks https://www.agriculture.com/august-usda-wadse-report-8641592Angie Setzer's Tweet: https://x.com/GoddessofGrain/status/1823754418900361668 Zack’s Worthy Adversary: @_TheMizzouTigerList of Worthy adversaries: https://x.com/i/lists/1815850820195475962
