Cartoon. Title: “Food Security” Image shows the New Zealand Grown food label, but instead of the white stylised silhouette of a kiwi, it has a kiwi skeleton, looking dismayed. Down the bottom right, on the label, is a ‘R’ for registered trade mark, but there is an arrow pointing to it, saying “Rated ‘R’ for “Rooted.” In the background are mixed chopped vegetables.

“The closures of Heinz Watties, Greggs, & McCain…will have implications for NZ’s #FoodResilience & security, will cause significant #JobLosses & threaten the viability of local vegetable growers…& NZ’s ability to feed itself with #LocalProduce” - Steve Abel, Greens

It will take years to dismantle the #CorporateFoodSystem. Meanwhile, we need local #FoodResilience programmes- growing, storing, sharing...

Bill to expand farm‑use tax deferments to S‑corps and diverse agricultural operations advances in committee with follow-up requested Senate Bill 200 would allow S‑corporation farms and non‑food agricultural operations (for example peony farms and hay for horses) to qualify for municipal farm‑use tax deferments and would clarify included land and reporting requirements; committee discussion focused on eligibility, the $2,500 sales threshold, deferment mechanics, and municipal impacts, and members set amendment deadlines and follow-up tasks.

Senate Bill 200 aims to boost Alaska's agricultural resilience by allowing S-corporation farms to access crucial tax deferments, ensuring diverse operations like peony farms thrive.

CAP shapes organic farmers’ incomes, yet support is still largely area-based and often ignores real organic costs and ambition.

High public value goes under-rewarded. Future CAP must better link support to results.

#CAPfacts #FarmersIncome #FoodResilience

Fair income for organic farmers goes beyond prices or subsidies.
It must cover real costs, ensure farm stability, and support investment in soil, water & biodiversity.

This should guide CAP support.

Agency of Education says Local Foods Incentive is growing; grant requests exceed $500,000 appropriation, prompting proration and audits Agency of Education staff told the Agriculture, Food Resiliency, & Forestry committee that participation in the Local Foods Incentive has increased (14 SFAs reached 15% local purchasing; Wyndham Northeast hit 31%), but demand exceeded the program’s $500,000 appropriation for the first time. The agency will prorate awards (roughly 90% expected) and is conducting audits of applicants.

Vermont's Local Foods Incentive is thriving, with school-local purchasing hitting record highs, but demand has outstripped funding, prompting proration and audits for applicants.

Got the “wrong” soil for gardening?
Clay, sand, chalk — it’s not your fault.
Raised beds and pots aren’t cheating… they’re working smarter

UVM agronomist outlines how USDA, NRCS define "prime" farmland and how Vermont maps local importance Heather Darby of University of Vermont Extension told legislators that USDA/NRCS definitions identify soils best suited to food, feed and fiber production; she explained federal thresholds (depth, slope, flooding), how states designate soils of statewide or local importance and where to find parcel-level maps.

Discover how Vermont is redefining agricultural soil classifications to safeguard our food security in the face of development pressures!

It protects soil, water & biodiversity.
Fair income must reflect this value.

Selecting Cucumbers, Melons, Pumpkins, and Squash For Seed Saving Without Hybridizing Risk If you pick carefully, you can save a lot.

Seed saving = buy it once, grow it forever. 🌱
But cucumbers, squash, and pumpkins can easily cross if you don’t know which species you’re growing. Learn which ones cross in this week's post.

What makes a food system truly strong? 🌱
Resilience - the ability to keep producing food despite market shocks.

Europe’s dependence on imported fertilisers is a vulnerability. Organic farming offers a solution - explore our #CAPfacts!

How well do you know the link between the CAP, food security and organic farming? 🌱
Test your knowledge in this week’s CAP quiz - from fertiliser imports to how organic farming builds resilience.

#CAPquiz #OrganicFarming #FoodResilience

How resilient is Europe’s food system?
The EU produces enough food, but dependence on imported fertilisers creates vulnerability.
Supported by the CAP, organic farming builds soil fertility, reduces inputs and strengthens resilience.

Lawmakers hear how SNAP disruption and HR 1 changes hit Vermont farmers markets, grocers and food banks Witnesses told the House Agriculture, Food Resiliency & Forestry committee that a recent lapse in federal SNAP funding and policy changes in HR 1 reduced customer spending at farmers markets and small grocers, strained nonprofit food‑hub cashflows and required a quick state response to prevent immediate hunger.

Vermont's food system is facing a crisis as new HR 1 changes threaten to cost the state millions, impacting farmers markets, grocers, and food banks.

This Canadian company is getting ready to grow food on the moon - The Logic With no atmosphere, nights that last two weeks and 250°C temperature swings, growing food on the moon is a huge challenge. Now it’s edging closer to becoming a reality.

🧵 1/2
The tech to grow food on the moon is here—Canadensys’ work with the University of Guelph’s CESRF proves it. Harsh environments, closed loops, precision control. The same science we need for the planet’s toughest climates. 🌱
