Fruit/vegetable farming is killing the land

overpopulation is a myth, the earth has no more than 500 million people

>there's 39 million people in california alone

plants weren't designed to be farmed the way we do it nature is more chaotic berry bushes grow wild not in straight rows covered in chemicals withh all birds shot
your point is spot on the main problem is over population but let's not stray from the fact that modern agriculture and aquaculture kills the land and water
surely you studied the dustbows, you remember ready that the middle east was once a very fertile land
western and northern china at the moment is the perfect example of a modern dustbowl

You can't have one without the other user.
If i use a paddock for growing vegetables one season then that paddock needs to rest for 5 full years with cattle grazing it before it can be used for growing vegetables again.

If you want something to bitch about bitch about the Avocado, i could grow 20 tonnes of potatoes with the amount of water needed to grow 1 tonne of Avocado.

Here is my solution, people who don't know shit about farming or keeping an area healthy should not talk about or make decisions for the people who do know about farming and caring for land.

It’s too much waste and a lot of greed really. That said, one can grown fruit and veg on a patio garden or indoors. It’s notnthat fucking hard.

It's almost like water is a infinitely renewable resource within the close system of a planet.

>plants weren't designed to be farmed the way we do it nature is more chaotic berry bushes grow wild not in straight rows covered in chemicals withh all birds shot
Which is why farm yields are many times higher than wild.

AHHH the water is just GONE, it is never coming back you guys. It's the same water that was here hundreds of millions of years ago when vegetation was 100% of the land but now it's all GONE because of broccoli

how fucking retarded can you be OP
you need farms in order to have civilization.

Not to mention the air pollution nut harvesting causes. Central valley has the highest particulate matter. Around September and October when they shake the trees the air quality becomes shit and respiratory problems prosist.

Using hydro/aqua/aeroponics reduces water usage to the point where the only water that isn't recycled is that which is used to grow the plant.

California also has plenty of water, it's just allocated mostly to the environment, and their waterways are open canals (so subject to evaporation).

You could save a lot of water by growing crops such as tomatoes and lettuce in hydroponic systems. You would also increase yield drastically compared to field-grown methods, the only downside is the use of electricity for the pumps and whatever else you add (such as artificial lighting), but that can be solved with solar power.

Ultimately, urbanite Californians are always going to demand more vegetables and fruits while at the same time as demanding their farmers use less water. Unless you fix that situation, you may as well get the government to fund the transition to hydroponic systems.

Nigga an almond is not a fruit or veggie

excellent video. Stop the vegan agenda! Eat meat! Eat fat! Lots of it!

kek i love sv3rige

Lets grow an almond with a gallon of water, then grind several almonds up and put it in another gallon of water with the ground up almonds then pour it into a bowl with honey bunches of oats that has almond slivers. How many gallons we at?

farming is for peasant cuck slaves

the elite are literally eating children and drinking their blood yet they tell us dumb goyim to eat trees and plants like pathetic slaves

wake the fuck up

I like your desert, user.
OP's problem with almonds is the fact that California grows a shitton of almonds. Like, most of the world's supply of almonds. California takes advantage of the fact that they are pretty much all of the watershed West of the Rocky Mountains, and they grow a lot of stuff. Half of California is technically a desert, but that doesn't matter because we can redirect water at will now.
It's not an accident that leftist vegans are all about the almond milk now. They've completely bought into the idea that non-dairy is good, and have no idea about cows or how they work. They arrived at a conclusion and made the facts fit their requirements.

Suicide is the only sane option for any honest vegan.

>Thinks almonds are a legume

almonds milk is not the same as basedmilk you brainlet
move to africa if you want to practice cannibalism. otherwise anyone who practices that in the ethnostate will be put into prison for slave labor.

Mother Jones ain't wrong. They're one of the saner liberal news sites--volunteer only, not for profit, and though predictably they dislike Trump, they're not hysterical and psychotic about it.

It would be nice if we could just grow crops in the appropriate areas. Grow broccoli, rice, almonds, stuff like that in wetter areas, grow low water crops in California. Just common sense shit like that.

>almonds are a tree nut
you got me there. rekt. still almonds are toxic and indigestible anti-nutrients

>move to africa if you want to practice cannibalism
Where did I promote eating people? I only said the elite kikes practice this shit.

almond milk is still a shit food and not nearly as nutritious as real cow or animal milk

The libtards who win the elections in California by election fraud are just stupid. They have the Pacific ocean at hand's reach. With 2 small nuclear plants, some pipes and a desalinization facility they could have a river flowing where they want.

But they are too stupid to understand the math & engineering behind or do the feasibility. It hard. A degree in lesbian normative dance theory is much easier, so they go for that.

LOL

Prove it

The first one opened in December 2015 in Carlsbad that is near San Diego while the next one will be in Santa Barbara that is north of Los Angeles. And 15 more are on the table there.

Deal with it, leftie.

animal meat and fats are healthy and ontop of that they can be preserved for years as a safety net for society. animal milk is terrible for human health and goes bad in days.

Literally read this California allocates fuck all water to agriculture under the pretext of saving some "endangered fish". Furthermore they let stormwater/rivers run into the ocean and don't collect it.

There's actually plenty of water for agriculture, but the environmentalists have screwed it up for the farming areas.

Look at California by which party it votes for per region, the farm lands most often vote Republican because of pants on head retarded shit that Democrat urbanites vote for.

that was pretty interesting

Almonds are a nut. Nice strawman. Vegetable, and even more so fruit, farming produces massive a.m. mounts of calories for its space. It’s also much easier on the land than grains, dairy, meat.

You'd be surprised, apparently almonds actually require slightly more water per gallon to produce than beef. Although I don't know if that includes just the direct water they consume, or also the water required to produce their feed. Just kind of funny that some of the trendy foods liberals and hippies love like almonds, avocados, etc. are so resource intensive to produce. But obviously there's more to it than just water consumption, a cow also requires far more land, for example, than an almond tree.

>actually require slightly more water per pound to produce

Derp, typo

Milk does not "go bad" it ferments and is eaten by bacteria. This is how cheeses and kefir is made.

Rotten milk is actually MORE nutritious as the bacteria count increases.

Almonds are far more profitable to produce than staples like wheat, though. At least when the state subsidizes your water for irrigation.

>almonds are toxic and indigestible anti-nutrients
Go back to your Yoga classes and pop fiction books, schizotypal shitbag

>Rotten milk is actually MORE nutritious as the bacteria count increases.
This is just flat-out incorrect. All secondary milk products lose calories as they ferment.

>animal milk is terrible for human health
>allele for lactase persistence spread extremely fast
pick one

>It takes 5 litres to grow 1 almond NOT ONE ALMOND TREE JUST 1 SINGLE ALMOND NUT

but he's right you don't actually digest most nuts you eat it's more so just to go through your intestines to clear it out
there's a reason why there's nuts in your poop
well yeah maybe it's a good idea to buy almond milk in this case
