Thought for the Day 15.0

Once plants and animals were raised together on the same farm --
which therefore neither produced unmanageable surpluses of manure, to
be wasted and to pollute the water supply, nor depended on such
quantities of commercial fertilizer. The genius of American farm
experts is very well demonstrated here: they can take a solution and
divide it neatly into two problems.
-Wendell Berry, farmer and author (b. 1934)
