Gabe Brown and Dr. Allen Williams join me in this bonus episode to discuss the state of agriculture in North America. We talk about where we are, how we got here, and what have been some of the proposed solutions to fixing these problems. We also talk about the problems caused by trying to fix symptoms rather than dealing with root causes.
