Intensive farming is often criticized, but the real issue lies in the fundamental practices of agriculture. Globally, farming has devastated habitats, depleted freshwater, polluted oceans, and contributed to climate change, leaving millions hungry. Signs indicate that this system is faltering. In this insightful work, George Monbiot presents an alternative vision for food, people, and the planet. He explores the groundbreaking science of soil ecology, revealing how the hidden biological world beneath our feet can revolutionize our food production. Monbiot meets innovators, from fruit and vegetable growers who embrace pests as allies to producers of perennial grains who forgo ploughing, and scientists developing new protein and fat sources for diverse culinary applications. This exploration highlights how microscopic life forms in the soil can help us create abundant, affordable, and nutritious food while restoring large areas of land to nature. The narrative offers a hopeful and exciting perspective on revolutionary farming practices and cuisine that could nourish humanity and rejuvenate our planet's ecosystems.
