    We essentally eat fossil fuels (fertilizer, mechanized tilling and harvesting, transformation, packaging, transportation), right? That’s how bad this is. But green/regenerative/low-processing/local can mitigate the risk of these disruptions.

      We don’t have to use as much. Manure still works its more work though and farmers love to optimize.
