I find the promise of this very alluring. However I strongly believe in emphasizing the culture in agriculture. Additionally I am largely interested in permaculture because it has a decentralizing effect on society. It returns power to the many, as opposed to the few. This system portrayed in this video seems that it would cause greater human concentration in cities, granted pesticide and fertilizer use would drop to zero, but it would maintain the same power structure that we have now. Similar to how the internet has be a revolutionary force for quite a bit of people, however it has just reinforced, and multiplied the patterns of mindless consumption for the majority.

I would be interested in this. I am purchasing land in South America. I will be working on that a lot. When I am back home though I would love to be a part of an important project like this.

Where can I find these podcasts?

I would like to raise them for their heat tolerance, and novelty. Does anyone have experience, or connections with breeders?
