Where do farmers get the nitrogen from? - Jason Lavigne Chats #001 - Our Farmers

Come along with Jason as he discovers where the nitrogen that is used in modern-day nitrogen-based fertilizers that is used by farmers worldwide comes from.

Join Devin Brown, an engineer turned farmer based in south Saskatchewan, and Daniel Dulek, a Ted Ed talk presenter, as we learn how nitrogen ends up in the food we eat.

Our current government and the official opposition are pushing for or are complacent with the agenda to reduce nitrogen emissions by 30% by 2030.

If you are curious and are wondering why nitrogen emissions are suddenly a problem, and why our government is working so hard to fight our farmers on this issue, then start with this video as you begin looking more into the issue for yourself.
