63. Using Scouting and Thresholds to Tailor a Sustainable Pest Management Approach in Western New York, with Megan Guy 23:29

24d ago23:29

23:29

Managing insects, weeds and disease on crops is an ever-evolving battle. Spray too late, and you'll have lost your crop. Spray too soon, you'll have wasted a lot of money and time. Spray too much, and you'll be increasing pest resistance and causing other problems. And none of those options is sustainable OR practical. So in this episode, we're lea…

Agriculture can mean a lot of different things in the Northeast U.S. From row crops to specialties, from broccoli to potatoes, from dairy to turf production, every ag operation has unique needs.

Jonathan McIntosh: Figuratively Speaking: the Old Testament, Natural Law, and Libertarianism 27:24

4M ago27:24

27:24

According to the natural law tradition of St. Thomas Aquinas, the Old Testament civil law wasn’t merely political, but was also “figurative” or symbolic in nature. Yet in his actual interpretation of the judicial precepts, Aquinas treats them almost entirely as political, an error that results in an overly broad and (ironically) theonomic understan…

Nathan Stenzel: Preambles to Politics - Reformed & Roman Catholic Views of Human Constitution 27:15

4M ago27:15

27:15

Behind Roman Catholic and Reformed debates over soteriology, or the doctrine of salvation, lie conflicting views of man’s pre-fall nature. The donum superadditum, or “superadded gift,” is the Roman Catholic doctrine that when Adam was created, he had to be given a special, supernatural grace just to harmonize his spiritual and bodily natures. The R…

The free-running Snake and Clearwater Rivers once provided significant natural assets to mankind: beauty, clean water, fish, recreation, transportation, inspiration, waterfowl, solace.

George Harrell: Re-enchanting History in an Age of Woke Ideologies and Christian Nationalisms 32:30

4M ago32:30

32:30

Through historical narratives like the 1619 Project and critiques of the “post-war consensus,” both the post-liberal Left and Right seek to find meaning in our past while dismantling our national myths. This raises a critical question for Christians: are the historical methods employed by these political identities defensible? Or is there a more hi…

But, faced with a mandate to cut water use by 15 percent, he's spe…

8M ago24:50

24:50

When the U.S. Congress missed a key deadline to extend or renew the Farm Bill last month, it was not without precedent. But it is concerning, nonetheless, for growers who count on this massive piece of agriculture policy to lay the groundwork for everything from crop insurance to food stamps to sustainable ag incentives. So in this episode of the F…

The global spotlight on agriculture has never been brighter than it is today.

32:06

Contrary to the post-Cold War, triumphalist narrative, after WWII the United States did not altruistically transcend power politics and become the world’s stabilizing umpire. Geopolitics was never turned off as Peter Zeihan claimed, nor did history end as Francis Fukuyama predicted. Instead, it was a period of brutal business as usual, and we are j…

Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium. Every grower knows that these three nutrients are at the heart of every successful cropping plan.
