China Stalls U.S. Soybean Buys as Harvest Begins, Raising Storage and Price Risks - New polling shows that a majority of U.S. ag producers see an economic crisis, or the possibility of one on the horizon. A Farm Journal survey commissioned by the National Corn Growers Association in late August, and early September, showed that almost half of the 1,000 farmer respondents agreed that the U.S. is on the brink of a crisis. #farming #farms #Ag #Agriculture #farmers #soybeans #corn https://www.agriculture.com/partners-china-stalls-u-s-soybean-buys-as-harvest-begins-raising-storage-and-price-risks-11813791

This month's newsletter is part of our Quarterly Updates series for those who follow the Ranch's progress.
Lots of things to share this quarter, and we anticipate even more big changes come Winter.
A few big markers of ecosystem revitalization (even if currently in unbalanced states) are showing themselves, and we're incredibly optimistic about the next year and what we'll be able to do.
I'll be releasing our first Quarterly Q&A chock full of excellent gardening questions in the next week or so to paid subscribers. If you'd like to help materially support the community here and gain access to more knowledge, please consider subscribing at the paid tier to help justify the work put into sharing what we're learning as we develop this space.

View from the Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) in southern Sumatra. Local environmental knowledge is not always a safeguard for the conservation of the environment. In a context of land scarcity and inability of the authorities to enforce the law, thousands of farmers, both local and migrants, encroach upon the Park to convert it into coffee plantations.
