Nutrients in Fruits and Vegetables

[Guest]

It's all been discussed ad nauseam.

Sorry to hear you're nauseous. Bayer makes a product called Berocca. They recommend you use it everyday.

And here I thought this thread was about the value of pot and the users in BC ...
you know those Trudeau supporters an all ... 😂

Fruit and vegetable?
Truduea and Trump?

It just seems strange to suggest that the solution to phosphorous availability and crop needs for the next 100 years is simply use what is available.

A test of average soil P ppm available/not available, compared to the removal would show the validity of this claim.

Is this the best solution going in the organics world for covering the Phos needs?

"Organic phosphate"... taking the raw phosphate mined out of the ground and dumping it on for 1 or 2 years in wild quantities is the organic industry answer...

Some guys are spreading 500-1000lb/ac with 3-5% being available the first year. Remainder being mineralized out of the very long term

Another of the purely arbitrary rules of the organic industry, with no agronomic basis, and no measurable benefit or detriment to the end product. We need another rationale option in between.

If organic or regenerative farming (Gabe Brown for example) is one extreme do you have the courage to describe what's wrong with the other extreme (mainstream ag). Your secateurs appear to be mysteriously sharp when cutting down the former then just as amazingly get dull when defending the latter. It really isn't productive to be a subjective fence sitter.

As farma kindly pointed out let's focus on what's right then. The original question was asked of you. What's right with the other extreme or are you nauseous as well ?
Is this a "don't ask don't tell" scenario like the pesticide thread no one had the courage to respond to?

Damn you are special. Post something in a dead forum and then use a lack of response ad nauseum as proof that you are an idiot.

Austranada when you have health issues do you go to a university educated doctor or a herbal doctor? Do you take medication scientifically engineered or do you rely on alternative forms? If diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer would you accept a fighting chance remedy or would it be tomatoes and marijuana?

Just asking because you are dead against anything progressive and that's ok because that's your choice. Why ram it down everyone else's throat though. You seem to be here to cause problems instead of intelligent debate.

The thing with austranadia is it is young enough to think it knows everything. When in fact some of us who have farmed from the fifties have forgotten more than it actually knows.

Yes, fair enough. I keep thinking that this poster actually has something constructive to offer, and that this is a conversation worth having, but somehow with this poster, we just can't get past the riddles and insults, to ever get any useful solutions.

That is exactly what makes a professional troll. Advertisers love them because when you get angry, you will pay attention and remember the ads more-so then without. Some sites even pay to have the interaction occur which then generates even more ad revenue.

Saskatchewan has historically been woefully deficient in selineum, almost none; and continues to be. I spoke to a PHD student from NYC who told me about her dissertation re nutritional-values in food. Regional. International. Comparative. She was quite amazed at the prevelance of multiple sclerosis in Saskatchewan; the lack of selenium in patients suffering from. MS, and the absence of it in our soils.

Thought I'd mention her comments as I found them interesting. Pars
