Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeI don't know about you bud but i farm because i wanted to and to make a living for me and my family with the least amount of work and costs.(work smarter,...not harder) i don't feel i should have to work my butt off to feed the ever increasing world population(it' a uphill battle anyway and not my responsibility).
I use my land as nature intended to and not as society thinks i should use it which is basically just raping the soil in the long run.
Some of these fertilizers are made at great cost from oil and Natural gas so you can also say we are depleting those natural resources til there are none left.
If I am as you claim I am depleting my land in the long run by taking off meat and hay and return noting then i wonder how the prairies could sustain these millions of buffalo and elk and deer that roamed around for tens of thousands of years without dying off from starvation,..and the dinosaur's before that.
Why in the world would i take two cuts of hay if i need only one, sure i can sell that second cut and then turn around and spend the cash on fertilizer,..does that make sense to you?
I may look good for the bottom line of the fertilizer company but it does nothing for me but more work and headaches.
