Sovereign Food Systems - Perennial Protein From Silvopasture Meat Forests ~Epi-58
Manage episode 407203648 series 3558843
In today's show we are talking about creating Sovereign Food Systems.
I think this will be a series, or at least a collection of episodes, each one focused on a different type of sovereign food system that can be applied at a variety of scales across a broad range of contexts.
Basically, a sovereign food system is one that has eliminated any dependence on inputs from centralized production and distribution systems for its continued operation.
I believe these systems are increasingly important in light of the war on independent food that we are seeing and experiencing all around the world right now. We are being squeezed, and the pressure is only going to keep building. Sovereign food systems are a way to in-source the inputs for your food producting systems - to literally grow and cycle them on-site - so that you don't need to depend on globalized supply chains, the price of deisel, and a functioning currency to put quality food on the table for your family.
Sovereign food is all about designing systems that maximize the sunlight, water and soil resources on your property with good design and proper management such that the systems builds soil while feeding people.
That's what sovereign food is all about.
