What’s happening beyond the Hudson Valley and nationally in sustainable food and farming.

Neonic Updates from Both Sides of “the Pond”

Beyond the Valley

May 20, 2013 by Glynwood Guest Post

By Judy LaBelle, Glynwood Senior Fellow

The European Commission and the USDA both reacted recently to concerns about Colony Collapse Disorder among bees and the neonicotinoid pesticides that have been implicated by many studies.

The contrast in the approaches to risk on the opposite sides of “the pond”–and the willingness to take action commensurate with seriousness of the environmental risk, even in the face of compelling but imperfect data–could not be more stark.

By December of this year, countries in the European Union must impose a ban on the use of neonicotinoid pesticides on crops that attract bees. The ban followed on the heels of a European Food Safety Authority study that concluded that neonicotinoid-based pesticides present an “unacceptable” danger to bees. The ban, enacted by the European Commission in late April, will remain in place for two years, allowing time for further study of the pesticide’s impact.

Meanwhile, the United States has declined to take any regulatory action relating to these pesticides, citing the need for further study.

Last fall the Colony Collapse Disorder Steering Committee, composed of representatives of several federal agencies, convened the National Stakeholders Conference on Honey Bee Health to “consider actions to promote health and mitigate risks to managed honeybees in the United States.” The USDA released the report from this Conference within days of the European Commission’s vote to impose a two-year ban.

The report states that: “Acute and sublethal effects of pesticides on honey bees have been increasingly documented, and are a primary concern.” Yet it places greater emphasis on the combination of a variety of factors, including parasitic mites, viruses, bacteria, nutrition and breeding.

Rather than calling for action now to reduce the impact of the pesticides on bee health, the report recommends further study, including on “the effects of pervasive exposure to multiple pesticides on bee health and productivity of whole honey bee colonies.”

As a next step, the Steering Committee plans to revise the CCD Action Plan, to synthesize the input from the Conference and outline major priorities for the next 5-10 years.

During this time, the pesticides can continue to be used.

As Bryan Walsh concluded in Time.com’s Ecocentric blog: “So what we may get in Europe and the U.S. is a de facto field test of the real impact of neonicotinoids… In two years, if American bees are still dying and their European cousins are thriving, we might just have our answers.”

Connecting the Dots for the “Valiant Bestiary”

Beyond the Valley

April 5, 2013 by Glynwood Guest Post

By Judy LaBelle, Glynwood Senior Fellow

One of the most remarkable images from the movie “Queen of the Sun” is of flying over mile after mile of California almond orchards–nothing as far as one can see but almond orchards.

This came to mind in response to a recent NPR piece entitled “Why California Almonds Need North Dakota Flowers (and A Few Billion Bees).” In the piece, Journalist Dan Charles described the troubled connection between the California orchards that now produce two-thirds of the almonds in the world and the fields of North Dakota.

To produce almost two billion pounds of almonds each year, California farmers rely on bees that are trucked in. At the time of the NPR interview, a stunning 1.6 million bee hives had been delivered.

After the brief almond bloom, beekeepers like Zac Browning truck the bees to “the fringes of rural America, where we can stay away from pesticides, where we can find wildflowers.” For years, they have gone more than 1,000 miles to North Dakota, where large expanses of land had been set aside by farmers receiving compensation through the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP).

That is changing rapidly. In just the past five years, the amount of CRP land in North Dakota has declined by about a third as farmers have responded to high market prices for corn. Concerned government scientists have begun to study whether bees placed next to corn fields are as healthy as those that can graze the mixed vegetation on CRP land. Beekeepers are concerned about whether their businesses can survive.

This report also brought to mind The Forgotten Pollinators, written by Stephen L. Buchmann and Gary Paul Nabhan nearly 20 years ago. In his introduction, Edward O. Wilson wrote, “Eighty percent of the species of our food plants worldwide, we are informed, depend on pollination by an animal, almost all of which are insects. One of every three mouthfuls of food we eat, and of the beverages we drink, are delivered to us roundabout by a valiant bestiary of pollinators.”

Two decades later, these pollinators continue to be undermined on all sides, by loss of habitat, increasing use of pesticides, disease, and other factors that are not yet well understood. Commercial beekeepers, who once anticipated losing 5-10% of their hives each year, have lost 40 to 50% of their hives in the past year.

Finally, the surprising connection between the California almond producers and the North Dakota farmers, brought to mind the scene from “Big River” in which shrimpers traveled up the Mississippi to urge Midwestern farmers whose runoff was causing the “dead zone” in the Gulf to change their fertilizing practices to help restore the resource the shrimpers rely upon.

The need to connect the dots in the food system has never been more critical. Policies or actions that are intended to have one purpose have profound unintended consequences–sometimes nearby, sometimes far away, and often hard to detect or prove.

Yet even when we can connect the dots, taking action based on what we learn is not easy. A recent example from Europe helps make this point: after a report from the European Food Safety Authority cited the neonicotinoid-based pesticides as presenting an “unacceptable” danger to bees, the European Commission considered a proposal to suspend their use for two years to allow further study. The proposal, fought by the companies that dominate what has been termed the “billion dollar market” for these pesticides, was not adopted when considered earlier this month.

In the US, environmental and consumer groups–and some beekeepers–have long attempted to force the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) to undertake more studies of the impact of pesticides that may be “bee-toxic,” in particular the neonictinoid-based pesticides, before continuing to allow their widespread use. In late March attorneys from the Center for Food Safety filed suit on their behalf against US EPA seeking to compel it to take action.

It is clear that more work is needed on both the scientific and policy fronts to protect the “valiant bestiary” on which most of our food supply depends. At the same time, it is also clear that the ecological health and resiliency upon which our food supply depends is enhanced by the expansion of regional food systems based on practices that do connect the dots–that build soil health, conserve water, and protect the health of pollinators while producing fresh and healthful food for consumers.

Land Trusts, Farming, and the Hudson Valley

Beyond the Valley, Fresh from Our Farm

March 4, 2013 by Glynwood Guest Post

By Judy LaBelle, Glynwood Senior Fellow

Our colleague Erik Hoffner, from Orion Magazine, has written a terrific post for grist.org on the rapidly growing involvement of land trusts in the local foods movement. We are delighted to see this, since Glynwood’s own efforts to encourage land trusts to support sustainable agriculture extend back over nearly a decade.

As described in Erik’s post, land trust activities run the gamut from purchasing agricultural land to protect it from development, to leasing conserved land to farmers, to creating incubators to support the development of new farmers, to operating farms directly as part of their stewardship and educational programs.

In spite of these land conservation activities, the market price of agricultural land in many parts of the country still exceeds its value for agricultural use.  We look forward to learning more about how land trusts are trying to address this issue and make land affordable for farmers long-term, which is the focus of a national survey of land trusts recently undertaken by our colleagues at The National Young Farmers’ Coalition.

Glywood began to encourage land trusts to support sustainable agriculture back in 2004, when we held a convening titled “You Saved It, Now What?”, which brought together local officials, land trust professionals, farmers and other national experts to discuss how land owners could be encouraged to make conserved land available for productive agricultural use.  This led to a 2007 convening of the leading land trust professionals from across the country designed to identify best practices in working with agricultural land.   The resulting report: “Land Trusts and Agricultural Land: Saving Farmland or Farming?”, was the basis for a workshop at the Land Trust Alliance national Rally in 2007 and continues to be widely circulated to encourage land trusts to promote the productive use of protected farmland.

The Hudson Valley, which is the primary focus of Glynwood’s work, is blessed with a strong network of regional, county and local land trusts.  Glynwood works directly with many of them to encourage and support their engagement in the effort to strengthen our regional food system.  An important current example of this effort is our partnership with The Open Space Institute to create a farm business incubator on agricultural land OSI has conserved in the heart of the Valley.   Stay tuned as this project is implemented!

“Understanding Restaurant Systems” at NOFA-NY

Beyond the Valley

January 25, 2013 by Valerie Burchby

This weekend, Glynwood’s Culinary Director, Jason Wood, will be presenting at the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York’s 31st annual winter conference. He will join food and farming experts of all stripes with the hopes of collaborating, educating, and inspiring the next wave in sustainable agriculture. The theme for this year’s conference: Resilience.

His three-hour workshop, “Understanding Restaurant Systems,” will educate farmers about growing, marketing, and selling to restaurants. This presentation builds on Jason and co-presenter Gabe McMackin’s deep experience managing restaurant kitchens over the course of their careers. The goal of this education is to equip farmers using sustainable growing practices to meet institutional demand for fresh, local produce. By building strong relationships with restaurants, hospitals, universities, business parks, and public cafeterias, farmers will have more demand, more diversity, and ultimately, greater resilience.

In her announcement for the 2013 conference, NOFA-NY’s Executive Director Kate Mendenhall described the theme as follows:

Organic farmers are no strangers to adversity. 2012 was a year of extraordinary economic and environmental upheaval…Yet our farmers once again plowed on (pun intended). For the unsung role organic farmers play for our health, our communities, our culture, and our very survival, together we want to recognize and celebrate their remarkable resilience.

Since its formation in 1983, NOFA-NY has been a tremendous resource for farmers in the region. Glynwood has a deep affinity for NOFA-NY’s mission and has long supported its work. Each year, Glynwood sponsors its apprentices to attend the NOFA interstate council’s summer conference, where Director of Farmer Training Dave Llewellyn has presented many times. With this presentation, Jason Wood will continue the tradition and start a dialogue that we hope will help New York farmers for years to come.

Raising Awareness: Food Revolution Day & Dinner and Some Ed

Beyond the Valley, Diane’s Desk, Glynwood Institute

May 1, 2012 by Diane Hatz

Food Revolution Day is the Jamie Oliver Foundation and Jamie Oliver Food Foundation’s first-ever global day of action. It is a chance for people who love food to come together to share information, talents and resources; to pass on their knowledge and highlight the world’s food issues. It’s about connecting the community through events at schools, restaurants, local businesses, dinner parties and farmers’ markets. The Foundations want to inspire change in people’s food habits and to promote the mission for better food and education for everyone.

Dinner and Some Ed is an effort to raise awareness (and to enjoy!) local sustainable food by hosting a meal and showing a TED or TEDx video on food and farming. “Dinner” is a relative term- this can also be done as a brunch, lunch, picnic, or potluck. The key is just to have a computer or a mobile device where you can watch the talks while enjoying delicious, sustainable food.

Dinner and Some Ed came out of a project called Tedibles at TEDActive in Palm Springs, CA, in 2012. It is an effort to bring sustainable food to the extended TED community (meaning anyone who’s ever watched a TED talk).

Food Revolution Day on May 19th is the perfect time to host your first dinner and to join the global movement.

How can you get involved? Simple:

Step 1: Host a Dinner Party on Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution Day site
Step 2: Name your dinner “Food Revolution Dinner and Some Ed”
Step 3: Plan a meal
Step 4: Invite friends
Step 5: Watch TED/TEDx videos 

Have fun!

Use your imagination when planning your meal – host a potluck, invite your local farmer, or have guests bring recipes along with their dish and include where they sourced their ingredients. Visit Dinner and Some Ed’s What To Do page for ideas and more information.

Our Pick of the Month videos are:
Jamie Oliver: TED prize wish: Teach every child about food
Laurie David: Dinner Makes a Difference
Dan Barber: How I Fell in Love with a Fish
Birke Baehr: What’s Wrong with Our Food System

Watch these or your own combination of videos while enjoying some great tasting food, and be sure to check out our site for more information or to submit a review of your dinner!
