Jedoch muss man auch dazu sagen, dass ich es durchaus sehr begrüßen würde, wenn die PDL der CDU richtig Feuer unterm hintern macht und die durchaus dazu zwingt tatsächlich gute Dinge umzusetzen. Ich bin da so ein bisschen zwiegespalten.

Der Kapitalismus ist schon alleine von seiner Funktionsweise nicht in der Lage für alle eine gute Versorgung zu erreichen.
cows_are_underrated@feddit.orgto DACH - Deutschsprachige Community für Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz@feddit.org•Steuerzahlergedenktag6·8 hours agoPrinzipiell stimme ich dir zu, ich sehe aber nicht ein, viele Steuern zahlen zu müssen, während wir es uns als Staat leisten dass Milliardäre die Staatskassen plündern, keine Erbschaftsteuern zahlen, jedes verfickte Schlupfloch das es gibt nutzen nur um uns zu erzählen, dass wir mal mehr arbeiten müssen, damit wir wieder voran kommen. Diese Parasiten leben auf unseren Rücken, drücken unseren Lohn und holen sich den Rest über ihre Profitgier (Preissteigerungen) und für uns hohe Steuern wieder rein. Es wird Zeit, dass wir den Milliardären erst Ihre Kohle und anschließend ihre Produktionsmittel wegnehmen.

Durch unsere Hohen Steuern können wir es uns erlauben, dass dein Chef quasi keine Steuern zahlen muss und es ihm gut geht. Firmenchefs sind auch eine Minderheit die geschützt werden muss.

cows_are_underrated@feddit.orgto DACH - Deutschsprachige Community für Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz@feddit.org•„Wir wollen diese Kreuze aufhängen“: Dobrindt will Kruzifix-Urteil für Schulen in Bayern nicht akzeptieren29·5 hours agoDer Minister aus Bayern erklärte zwar, dass er das Urteil (Az. 7 BV 21.336) noch nicht gelesen habe, riet aber zu einem pragmatischen Umgang damit, dass das Gericht das Kreuz über dem Eingang der betreffenden Schule verboten hatte: „Dann hängt das halt über einen anderen Eingang.“
Da weiß man auch alles was man wissen muss. Dobrindt steht nicht mehr auf dem Boden der FDGO, sondern agiert stattdessen wie ein König, der machen kann was er will. Er missachtet grundsätzlich die Gewaltenteilung und geltendes Recht.
Es kommt halt darauf an wie die wegnahme definiert wird. Man kann es so definieren wie du es gesagt hat, aber das ist halt faktisch nicht beweisbar.
Jein. Man kann es so werten, jedoch ist das noch lange nicht rechtssicher. Diebstahl ist als die absichtliche wegnahme einer fremden beweglichen Sache definiert. Das Kriterium der Absicht kann in dem Fall erfüllt sein, muss es aber nicht. Ich stecke es vielleicht ja nur in die Tasche um es zu transportieren. Vor Gericht wirst du mit deiner Argumentation nicht durchkommen, dass das bloße in die Tasche stecken schon das Kriterium der Absicht erfüllt. Deswegen wird stattdessen meistens gewartet bis ein eventueller Dieb an der Kasse vorbeigegangen ist bzw den Laden verlässt.

It’s agriculture, there’s always prprofit.
This depends on to many factors to be universally true. Farming is so incredibly complex, that you can not make such a general statement. If you produce high profit crops for niece markets its much easier to make a profit. However, the whole conventional meat and milk industry is usually running at a loss (at least it has been since about 1-2 years ago where prices skyrocketed and still rise). It also vastly depends on where you are, what machines do you use, what’s the quality of your soil etc.
No one goes into farming, because its easy cash. Farming is only easy cach when you are experienced and grow to massive sizes. All the small to medium scale farms are usually barely profitable or are running at a loss due to low prices (the price that the farmer receives for the product).
Well yes, but actually no.
The following Ted talk gets presented to you by someone who has been raised in farming (non organic and organic) and is currently studying Agriculture at a university.
Modern agriculture is a very complex system where you have to balance out multiple factors at the same time. Relevant for how you run your farm, which includes how you harvest crops and grass, are factors like what animals (since grass isnt really a part of farming outside of animal based farms) you feed, what is your main goal with making a profit of these animals, what size does your farm have, Efficency, degree of mechanisation, biodiversity and of course being able to run at a profit. Since this whole topic is waaaaaay to complex to summarise in a single Lemmy comment I will not go in detail about every single aspect.
So first of all, what ways do we have to harvest gras? This is usually split into severals steps: Cutting, drying, transporting it to your farm and then storing it. Relevant here are only the cutting drying and transporting. First of all you have to decide in what kind of form you want to store the grass. Do you want to store it as a silage, which is fermenting it, or as hay. If you want to store it as hay you the gras to be long in order to achieve high texture. This can be achieved by using one of these machines to cut it down:
These are quite cheap and also available in bigger versions. They are very good for Biodiversity (they do not kill everything they run over). The downside is, that you do not really break up the structure which leads to increased drying times (you can use other mowers as seen below, but the drying time is still 4 or so days), since you want hay to be as dry as possible. Otherwise if you harvest it to early it can start burning due to heat that gets produced when drying. The problem with hay is, that its quite labour intensive, you hav higher losses of actually usable plant matter as food, due to having to move the hay on the field regularly to ensure it dries good. Also Hay usually gets stored in bales which means, that you have more work to do when feeding it.
The other main way of storing grass is as a silage like this:
This has the advantage, that you can completely mechanise the whole process of handling it and it is quite cost and labour effective at the same time. It is also quite easy to scale the whole production up. When going for silage you usually cut down the gras using one of these two mowers:
These are also the more common forms of mowers. They have the advantage of being capable of mowing more area in less time then the one shown above. When mowing for silage theres also often this part, which I will call a preparer (I dont know the english word) in use:
This damages the plant structure so that drying times are reduced. Both of these mowing variations allow for an additional belt being put behind so that the grass gets put down in a concentrated line for picking it up using a forage wagon or a chopper. This is done, to increase the efficency of transporting the grass to the farm. The big downside is, that these mowing combinations literally shredder everything they go over.
So what ways are there to increase Biodiversity while harvesting grass and what effects do they have? I will mainly go about changing the processes for creating silage, since its the most dominant form.
1: Dont use the listed forms of rotary mowers. This means, that you have to account for additionaly drying time, which when using a preparer Is usually about a day. You also have to do an additional step to bring the gras in a single line to be processes by the chopper, since its the most expensive machine of the whole process.
2: Cut at a latter stage. Usually the grass is cut when it starts to bloom or right before it starts, because thats the time where you have the highes Energy and protein concentration. Cutting at a later stage when the grass isnt blooming anymore means, that you harvest more mass, but that has lower nutritional value. It may also mean, that instead of making 4 (sometimes even up to 5) cuts from the same field you may only be able to cut the grass 3-4 times.
3: Only cut parts of the field. You may also leave some parts uncut so that insects have a place to got to. This is relatively cost effective since it usually doesnt hurt that much when you dont cut a small part of your field. Alternatively you can also make a rotation, where you maybe cut half the field and cut the other half once the already cut part has regrown a bit. This however, means more work and makes harvesting for silage harder/more expensive, since you would have to order machines more often.
4: Cut at night. This seems like a no brainer, but when less insects are around, less insects can be killed. Downside is, that you have increased drying times, since in the night the grass is of course wet and this has to dry of too.
5: Do everything by hand (as you suggested). This is nowhere near being a feasible option. Due to the big scales it becomes impossible to do everything by hand. It needs a huge workforce which isnt really an option for today. This would mean a mechnisation grade of about 1900, where about 33% of people were employed in Agricultural jobs. Today its about 1.2% Source (German)
There is also a fuckton to say about how to increase biodiversity in farming in general, but I do not want to write a whole bachelors work as a Lemmy comment.
This is especially important when you have trees in your garden. If you remove all grass from your garden the regrowing& and the trees will suck your garden dry of nutrients in 20-30 years.
