It’s a fact! 100% of men, women and children eat food, and 97.5% of must buy their food from others who bring it from an average of 2,000 miles away. And so the hungry ask: ”What’s in this tomato? Who planted that broccoli? Is it safe to eat genetically engineered corn? Why are they irradiating meat? Are we running short of water? Why is China growing our apples? What will happen to us if we can no longer farm? How safe is our food chain?” The Food Chain is an audience-interactive syndicated newstalk radio program and podcast broadcasting weekly on radio stations and streaming on demand on the internet.

A FOOD CHAIN RELEASE FROM MICHAEL OLSON
Yogi Berra once gave this piece of sage advise: “When you get to a fork in the road, take it!” And so we ask:
Which way should we grow our food: our way or nature’s way?
The Food Chain Radio Show - Podcast with Michael Olson hosts Dr. Felix Zu Lowenstein, farmer & author of Food Crash: Why Organic is the Only Way Forward, for a conversation about his insistence that growing food organically is the only way forward.
Topics include why human civilization is facing a major food crash in its immediate future; how this crash is consequent to the industrial technologies used to grow food; and why organic agriculture presents the only way to ensure a future of plentiful, healthy food.
