The suicide rate is 3.5x higher for farmers than for the general population in America. And it is not just happening here, as Nick Easen reports on the growing suicide rates for farmers in the UK. Most people still don't know or understand what it takes to farm, or what they've been through for decades. This is another reason it's important to learn where your food comes from, along with knowing the people who grow and raise it.

Guardian dogs are amazing at keeping predators away. I will for sure have a few Great Pyrenees when the time comes. For the folks raising any animals, what dog breed or others means do you use to protect from predators?

Imagine being an American in the 1800's and seeing massive cattle drives as far as the eye can see. Some interesting lore on the logistics "Herds varied in size from 500 to 10,000; however, they usually averaged from 2,500 to 3,000 head. A rancher entrusted his herd to a trail boss, who would hire 10 to 15 cowboys, a cook and wagon, and a wrangler (horse handler) for the 100 to 150 horses. The trail boss would also provision the wagon and plan the drive. On the trail the cattle were watered in the morning, and then they slowly ate their way northward. The cowboys kept them from stopping, turning back, or leaving the herd. The herd would walk about ten miles per day, stopping only to water and eat. At night, the herd would stop at a watering hole and bed down. These herds were less than ten miles apart and were spaced so that each herd could spend the night at a watering point." Modern day does not appreciate our ancestors enough.

Always find it interesting that there were over 50,000,000 bison and 30,000,000 cattle in America in the 1800s yet there were no mentioning of their farts causing climate change. Speaking of that, you don't hear much on climate change from cow farts anymore, funny how that works.
