Those that tend the land are closer to the divine.

Bravo Cuba!

Cuba can be a destination of healthcare for US citizens. Instead of costly and profit driven bloodsucking hospitals of US, Cuba doctors and hospitals can do far better treatment at a cheaper cost as they are doing for their own citizens. Though I should say that they shouldn't be that generous for people who were able to pay more, because it's a matter of economy and the foreign currency earned can improve the countries health overall.

People don't realize that it takes 50,000 pounds of cow manure to fertilize one acre of most vegetables. This would be equal to two fully loaded dump truck loads per acre. I have yet to see the first manure spreader in any videos of Cuban agriculture. To feed cities of people it also takes way more land under cultivation than what these little patches can produce even with the worlds best possible yields. Yet it only takes 200 lbs of garden variety chemical fertilizer to fertilize this same acre. While Cuba hasn't had ties to the US it has kept good relations with most of south America and thereby a easy source for fertilizers and pesticides. Cuba would also like the rest of the world depend on rural communities to produce the majority of the food, I can guarantee that these rural acres are using the worlds worst chemicals as crop protectants as do most third world countries especially those under dictatorships, like mercury based chemicals we outlawed years ago.

PROPAGANDA...there is no freedom of speech in CUBA. America normalizing relationions did nothing to change the laws and methods of control this country uses. Just like in China I guarantee that journalist can't take a poop without an escort and a very detailed list of reasons for wanting to take that poop.
As a organic farmer I would take Israeli farming over this any day. Not to say that their isn't anything to learn here, a wise man learns from everything. However, not all is as it is stated. -
What a great people! We should learn from them! Thank you for sharing this video!

Chemically-grown produce should be more expensive because you're using chemicals, another resource. But in the US the chemicals are subsidized so that makes "conventional" chemical farming cheaper, which is convoluted and idiotic. Thank you Cuba. I bet you will be bringing up a healthier population than we will. You obviously care about your children's future. Please Cuba, don't get suckered into going chemical, now that the US is talking to you. Be very wary of the chemical companies. You did it organically, and you have inspired the world.

If the cubans get hold of the symbiosis of fish farming and fruit and vegetable growth that is Aquaponics watch out world.........
They are light years ahead of the industrialised world IN URBAN Farming ....all due to the breakdown of the Soviet Union in the 1990's -
Important to the tacknikal.
All the time. -
genial es uno de los mejores videos que he visto
-
So thats why the U.S. is against Cuba
-
I would suggest to all who think this is a glorious workers paradise. Move to Cuba and partake in the glories of communism. Funny, I don't see hordes of people trying to get into Cuba. But I do see people desperate enough to risk their lives in little leaky boat to escape that place.

of course the farm have to be clean and neat with no weeds, they have like 40 people working full time per Acre
-
Often social democracy degenerate like a pure capitalism system, for this only socialism society is an assurance of freedom, equality and real democracy for all people
-

-
