He/She is claiming classifying farmland as 'fertile' is improper due to the depletion of the natural fertility of soil from intensive farming practices commonly employed in the US today.
- jelliclesfarm 6y agoAhh. Got it. There is some truth to it as Ag is net net extractive. Land has to be rotated for fertility and even then it takes decades and decades to build an inch of top soil. At our current global population , we are treading on thin ice..or rather upon eroding top soil. Sad truth.
