Farm to Taber podcast announcement! Season four is gonna go places.

International grain trade. The madcap economics behind right to repair. What whaling has to do with agribusiness (lots!). Deep dives on space colonialism & Star Trek land policy.

If you don't want to miss it, here's how!

My usual route is to post most episodes for free, & some bonus/early release content on Patreon. (see: http://patreon.com/user?u=5610560 )

I'll keep doing this! It works great!

But a monthly Patreon commitment doesn't work for everyone. And it needs a large platform to work at all.

So I also set up an Indiegogo to jumpstart the next 1-2 seasons of Farm to Taber.

This is for anyone who prefers one-time payment over Patreon. You'll get updates, early access to the new season with a password protected link, & some other fun perks. (:

And if you want to be notified when the podcast and book come out, but you also need to hang onto all your pennies right now, I've got you covered too.

You can sign up for my mailing list here: https://forms.gle/nrj6yg7ZWnMH41a46

No matter which route you take, I won't sell your information. 1) That's gross and 2) I don't have to do that to make a living, I have marketable skills.

I aim to start releasing podcast episodes in January. Patreon folks can expect some behind-the-scenes updates between now and then.

The fundraising target here is on the large side for a podcast. A couple reasons:

-It's research-heavy- good deep dives take time, both mine & other people's.

-The "crowdfund a little every month" model may break down soon—that had been primarily happening on Twitter.

This type of work needs real resources to be viable.

That said, it's important to me that deep dives on the food system not be paywalled. So I'm making it easy to get those episodes for free. I hope that if you're able, you'll help me keep this work going through all of… this.

Link rundown once again:

ICYMI: From the current cover essay of Foreign Policy:

"Soon after Russia invaded Ukraine in February, panicky headlines about a global wheat shortage appeared. As a crop scientist, I knew that wasn’t right. The regional supply crunch was real: Nations that source grain from the Black Sea suddenly had to order it from farther away, upsetting supply chains. But it wasn’t a global shortage. Thanks to record crops in India, Australia, and elsewhere, there was enough to feed everyone. We just had to move it.

"You wouldn’t have guessed it from the news, though. Coverage of food supply chains featured scare tactics and distortion that drove speculation and trade restrictions, worsening the problem. By early July, global commodity prices finally fell to reflect the availability of food, rather than speculation. Yet while the panic was unfounded, the suffering it caused was real, immense, and unnecessary.

"Next time, we need to get it right. Climate change, public health emergencies, and politics virtually guarantee we’ll keep seeing crunches in the food supply chain. But even in turbulent times, we can ensure food security around the world. We have the tools we need to get there."

There’s plenty to go around, but it’s going to the wrong places.
