We have worked in farming from hyper local sales to national distribution. There isn't one silver bullet for better food and ag, we need silver buckshot. The stakes are high, because everybody eats, so everybody depends on the 6 inches of topsoil beneath our feet. How do we have realistic conversations about food in America and acknowledge that we need to improve agriculture at every level.
