I love this channel. More farmers should be doing this, IMO, to let people know how food gets to our tables.

The link is the very first rice farming video. He's up to 47. They're all short and loaded with information. Plus, Matthew is interesting and funny. If you start at #1, bet you'll only watch a few more before you subscribe. It's just that interesting.

Click the link above or here's the link to the very first episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYWuz_fUYbY

Actually pretty cool.

I come from a long line of New England engineers and scientists, so alternate career paths did not really occur to me until much later in life. But, in retrospect, I think I would have been happier doing something with agriculture.

I’ve never looked into rice farming, but craft brewing, beekeeping, cider works, and other such things seem like very satisfying ways to make a livelihood.

Being such a water-intensive crop, rice doesn’t quite strike me as being all that well suited for California.

If Trump can get them to import it to Japan, he’ll have done the impossible.

I think the double cropping of Crawdads and Rice is the way to go.
