Home gardening is an important element of individual food security. It’s not meant to replace industrial agriculture which maintains food security for the nation as a whole

Home gardening is an important element of individual food security.

And food independence

It’s not meant to replace industrial agriculture which maintains food security for the nation as a whole

Hard disagree. Industrial agriculture maintains profits for a few corporations. That large-scale agriculture is productive, necessary, efficient or any of that is a myth. It's massively inefficient when viewed from the perspective of value - especially nutritional value- to the consumer.

I don’t have any love lost for mega corporate farms and agree that we need more family and cooperative owned farms that would be more concerned with sustainability and environmental impact.

Glad to see you agree with me 100%.
