RE: The High Suicide Rate of Farmers in the US

in #psychology7 years ago (edited)

Well written, informative article. Didn't know the rate was so high, but can imagine how it might be, as they probably see the work of their hands as who they are. So many of us think about having little, or even big, farms (in our heads), while not having any real idea the pressures of farming. I'll add, as someone who appreciates organic food, enough of us need to rebel over this GMO and overuse of pesticides problem. They are both danger to our health and the health of our children and grandchildren.

Sort:  

Yeah, I don't trust GMO under our current greed and money mindset that these corps run from. Roundup is bad, and many other chemicals, yet we continue to poison our land, air and water... Thanks for the feedback.
