Blake Hurst is a farmer in Missouri who got fed up with the nonsense authors such as Michael Pollan were spewing in attacking modern farming practices. His article in The American, “The Omnivore’s Delusion: Against the Agri-intellectuals,” was a breath of fresh air in its countering of the drivel of the “self-appointed experts.” A follow-up article, “Give Thanks for This Harvest,” was equally exhilirating.
He’s published a number of articles in that venue since. I’ll be working through them over the next few days, but I’m willing to bet they’ll be well worth the time and effort their reading takes.
