Steve Solomon on Soil and Food Quality [NEW VIDEO]

Can your garden feed you? Is organic food automatically nutritious?

Steve Solomon spent decades believing it was. He and his family ate what he grew--and their health suffered.

This set him on a quest to figure out what soil needs to produce actually nutrient-dense food.

This conversation is about what was missing and how a homesteader or gardener can grow truly healthy food:

Harvest Crisis Update: Diesel Tops $6 + USDA FOIA Response

Three weeks ago I said watch diesel as we go into harvest. Prices have exploded since; ExxonMobilโ€™s Joliet refinery just shut down unexpectedly, and the situation in the Middle East keeps getting worse. Other voices are now also warning about crop abandonment as expenses are making a harvest economically unviable.

Also: the USDA responds to one of my FOIAs about DARPAโ€™s Tellus sensing-and-reporting microbes in the food supply. (at 7:14)

Can heirloom seed make you self-sufficient? Are hybrids a trap?

Steve Solomon once believed the hype: open-pollinated heirlooms over hybrids will set you free. Then he ran a seed company and trialed both. Much of what is sold as โ€œheirloomโ€ is old, poorly maintained commercial stock. Saving seed isn't as easy as one might think. This conversation is about what backyard seed saving can actually do, what it canโ€™t, and how a gardener can keep varieties alive without a fantasy collapse kit.

WSJ: Oil executives warn a global fuel crisis has arrived as Hormuz closure bites

Chevron CEO Mike Wirth said at an Austin energy conference that the mechanisms that had cushioned prices and supply have largely played out, leaving little buffer left in the system.

Some energy executives have grown increasingly alarmed as the conflict has escalated again. China has resumed large crude purchases, after months of drawing down its own reserves, adding further pressure to global supply.

With no resolution to the conflict in sight and Trump reportedly expecting the war to extend at least until the November midterms, expect the disruption to run well beyond that timeline, keeping both crude and refined product markets on edge.

(This was posted by WSJ just after my report above about impact of high diesel prices on farmers during harvest season)

Diesel Prices Are Surging, But a Bigger Fertilizer Crisis Could Be Right Behind It:

Sulfur prices have surged more than fivefold, threatening phosphate fertilizer production. With global supply tightening, farmers could face higher prices, or even fertilizer shortages, heading into the months ahead.

โ€œLetโ€™s just talk numbers for one second,โ€ Pratt says. โ€œTypically, the global phosphate fertilizer market every year is 75 million tons. Thatโ€™s how much phosphate fertilizer global farmers consume every year. Our best estimates are that producers around the world will probably make about 45 million tons this year, because they either canโ€™t get or canโ€™t afford sulfur.

"There is a looming crisis out there, and itโ€™s not too far removed, it becomes a food crisis.โ€

โ€œThey could be looking at higher fertilizer prices, or they could be not able to find it at all,โ€ Pratt says. โ€œIf weโ€™re not able to produce phosphate fertilizers here, and our big competitors in other parts of the world are either slowed down or not producing, thatโ€™s a pretty dire situation.โ€

And the tension in the Strait of Hormuz and the Black Sea doesnโ€™t seem to be easing anytime soon , meaning the sulfur squeeze could get worse before it gets better.

"Economically Unviable to Farm" โ€” when I say that ... this is what I mean!

On average, producers are LOSING money per acre.

This is why the explosion in diesel price and fertilizer is driving farmers to ask โ€” do I even harvest the crops this year? Do I even farm next year?

I am hearing from farmers who are confirming โ€” given diesel prices, they are walking away from their crops.

The math just doesn't add up for them. It is economically unviable to farm.

And as they destroy the family farms, they roll out the gene-edited food... with extremely dangerous consequences to all living creatures (especially microbiome).

Folks are feeling the pain from diesel and are wondering what's going on โ€” ensure they get the big picture agenda, not some partisan blame game nonsense. Spread the word.

Folks in SE Michigan, N. Texas, and Orlando reporting no diesel.

Apparently some signs can be set to "Out" while others just read $0.00...

I'm not claiming there's widespread shortages, but with prices at record highs, and stations running out ... the stress in the system is now evident, and people are starting to get the sense something is deeply wrong here...

Diesel Is the Pretext [new article]

Diesel is at record highs.

The IEA, WEF, and FAO already published the response to this crisis: fuel rationing, plate-based road limits, farm AI, water caps, then Digital ID.

As folks start to cry out, and the political willpower is manufactured, the policy recommendations released over the last 6 months will be pulled off the shelf. [they are described in the full post below]

We will no longer be free to consume energy, food, or water. We will instead henceforth request permission from the technocrats.

The natural order is being inverted. The technocrats are attempting to insert themselves as the sovereigns: between us and the living world. Between us and God. A family can no longer thrive off the abundance of nature; we are now restricted to what their system will afford us.

Diesel Is Up. Here's What's Planned [VIDEO]

In March, plans were written for an energy, food, and water crisis. That crisis is here. Those plans need to be understood as they come off the shelf.

Event 201 for Food?

In 2015, John Podesta's Center for American Progress co-hosted a tabletop exercise with WWF, Cargill, Mars, and CNA: Food Chain Reaction: A Global Food Security Game.

The event "imagined" a food crisis brought about by geopolitical instability and climate change, prompting price spikes, unrest, and mass migration.

The simulation concluded that isolationism made things worse โ€” the fix was more global governance, a carbon tax and carbon-trading market.

A meat tax was also discussed...

... and now, as we enter a real food crisis, these "solutions" are being pulled off the shelf.

They learned a lot during COVID about how many people:

* will believe anything
* will comply with anything (whether they believe or not!)
* will not comply
* will actively resist; what forms that resistance takes, and how it can be managed/mitigated

For this next round of energy/food lockdowns, I think they have accounted for some non-compliance accordingly. But as long as there is a critical mass sleepwalking to the slaughter, their plans can achieve some measure of success.

That is why I always say it is critical to spread the word. And with people feeling the pain of diesel right now -- today, actively -- we should all be having these conversations!

The AI Bird-Flu Scenario They Just Published [NEW ARTICLE โ€” a must read]

A former Director of Homeland Security just published a scenario in Foreign Affairs detailing a terror cell using AI to design a new H5 and pump it into farms around the US, decimating the food supply, and killing millions.

Numerous tabletop exercises have been conducted in recent months with staggeringly similar scenarios: AI used to enhance pathogens. Anthropic reported last week it had detected this happening โ€” with H5!

All called for the same solution: restrict access to powerful AI models and to biomanufacturing capabilities.

Gates said the next pandemic will get our attention. You'll want to read this one.

Diesel is up. Harvest and trucking are already breaking.

The crisis response documents were published in March:

Rationing. Speed limits. License plate-based road access. Digital ID...

They sat on the shelf all summer. This is when they come down.

Now that the world is short on diesel, and with the former homeland security director warning of an AI-created bird flu, and disasters being declared in advance of a "super El Niรฑo" ...

this is looking more and more like another of those eerily prescient drills...

Waiting for the AI false flag?

"US researchers have announced the creation of new viruses using artificial intelligence, a scientific first that raises hopes for advances in medical treatments while also stoking anxiety about the dangers of the frontier technology."

7 Aug 2026 announcement was just before Anthropic's release that Claude had been used for gain-of-function research on Bird Flu.

The narrative has been systematically seeded โ€” and now officials are warning about an AI-enhanced bird flu.

Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry issued an executive order giving farmers and loggers a tax exemption on diesel that is used for off-road equipment like tractors, skidders and irrigation pumps โ€” but normally not on fuel for highway use. Landryโ€™s order declares a state of emergency and allows farmers and timber harvesters to use the dyed, tax-free diesel in highway vehicles through Oct. 22.

โ€œWeโ€™re not going to sit on the sidelines while Louisiana farmers are paying record prices to harvest the crops that feed our families and support our economy,โ€ Landry said in a statement.

โ€œWith these escalated fuel prices, itโ€™s not a cure-all, but itโ€™s a definite recognition of some of the dire straits weโ€™re going through trying to bring in these Louisiana crops at this time,โ€ said Louisiana Farm Bureau President Richard Fontenot.

As I've been warning, diesel prices are exploding right when it is needed by farmers to complete the harvest and plant winter crops.

Milk can't sit. Bulk tanks last 24-48 hours. Then, the milk gets DUMPED.

During COVID, dairies were dumping milk (this is not an AI image!). That was a temporary issue -- negative demand shock when restaurants/schools closed.

This is a STRUCTURAL issue: Diesel north of $6.50, and haulers on 3โ€“5% margins, means deliveries become uneconomic. Rates were locked in advance. Trucks stop running, and dairies are in crisis.

This flows into all sorts of products: milk/cheese/dairy, powdered milk and infant formula, processed foods -- all sit downstream from that truck.

We don't need a flashy trucker strike to have this issue...you only need drivers to say "not at these prices!"

AI-Enhanced Bird Flu Scenario [NEW VIDEO].

A narrative is emerging around an AI-enhanced H5 (Bird Flu) pathogen, released on American farms, that will be used to advance many agendas from the biosecurity/biosurveillance state, to locking down access to AI models, to the end of animal agriculture.

A former Homeland Security official published such a scenario on the very same day she authored the policy response, and Anthropic's recent warning that Claude was being used for gain-of-function research on H5 lends credibility.

Is this the next plandemic? Christian breaks it down.
