How much #protein do you need?
#WHO says 10-15%, #USDA 10-35% (as most in US consume meat in every meal) and experts like Colin Campbell says 8-10% of your diet should be protein unless child, pregnant or athlete/ lifting weight. Your body is quite good is recycling protein (1/n)
Where to get these proteins from? 70-80% of your protein should be plant based. Plant proteins are packed with rich complex carbohydrates (incl. fibers), healthy fats and antioxidants essential for healthy life.
Below are some of the plant based foods to get your proteins from: Image

We’re settling in to watch Secretary of Agriculture nominee Tom Vilsack’s confirmation hearing. Stay tuned for highlights, and watch it live here: c-span.org/video/?508411-… #USDA
Vilsack is one of Biden’s most contentious cabinet nominees. Here’s a backgrounder on why: thecounter.org/biden-usda-tom…
"It's not lost on me, ironically, that this is Groundhogs Day [sic], and I realize that I'm back again. But I also realize that is a fundamentally different time... #Vilsack

an old saw from Mike Parson’s campaign:
random rural yard signs to
applaud Mike’s designs to
continue his post-Greitens reign.
In this specimen Parson would take in
uninformed voters in County Macon. 1/2 🔥 #mogov 🗳️

as school districts may soon sink, not swim
in each piteous scene
of a mass quarantine as
new cases exceed counties’ brim.
Yet the venue’s the same:
still in Macon. Why no
mask mandate? Parson’s mistaken.

National Guard, unlike Mike,
at this moment works hard
citizens to protect.
Parson’s lies we reject,
evidenced by his COVID scorecard.
Folks still ask: why no #MaskUp
mandate? Parson’s post outweighs
the #ShowMe State.

La moisson de céréales commence dans l’hémisphère nord , et les rendements sont catastrophiques.
Est-ce que c’est surprenant, ou est-ce qu’on s’en doutait ?
Petit #thread sur les prévisions de récolte
Déjà pour commencer, à quoi cela peut-il bien nous servir de prévoir ça ?
✅Parce que des volumes, dépendent les prix
✅Et parce que de la qualité, dépendront les usages et le fléchage chez des clients différents
Et éventuellement, ça sert à savoir si on va pouvoir tenir les engagements qu’on a pris avant la moisson.

Heads up: This is going to be a LONG thread, but a very important one if you're interested in the plight of our Black farmers and our small farmers in this country.

Black Farmers Matter!

#NCAg #NCpol #agriculture
I have a number of concerns re: @USDA's aid distribution & program implementation of the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP). Chiefly, I'm concerned with how aid will be made available to minority farmers & small producers, particularly young & nontraditional farmers.

And this amount was in April, they have been flooded repeatedly- #KneeHighByJuly might be three years from now... we will starve if we don’t get the #Dem takeover ASAP desmoinesregister.com/story/money/ag…
OPINION
June 2018 Iowa Farm Bureau is a suburban insurance company pretending to be the voice of farmers desmoinesregister.com/story/opinion/…
Iowa Farm Bureau was created to advocate for Iowa’s farmers and rural communities, it now receives 84% of its revenue from its for-profit insurance arm, the FBL Financial Group, which controlled $10.1 billion in assets in 2017 alone
