Cellular Agriculture
Cellular Agriculture
I intend to present this contribution knowing that I will write a document that will radically change the vision and the conception of the oldest Civil Man business: Agriculture.
From the data of molecular and archaeological research obtained in the last decades, it is clear, now with great approximation, that agriculture has started independently in a world much larger than previously thought, and encompassed a wide range of taxa . At least 11 regions of the Old and New Worlds have been involved as independent centers of origin, including geographically isolated regions on most continents. The first testimony dates back to 11,500 years ago, separately in fertile crescent and Chogha Golan in modern Iran, where wild barley, wheat and lentils were cultivated and where domestic wheat forms appeared about 9800 BC.
It is well known that, although there were examples of substantial settlements even before the start of cultivation, it was the introduction of agriculture to give way to the development of increasingly large sedentary communities, progressively structured in villages and cities.
Egypt’s economy was based on agriculture and was among the first populations to use wood plow and hoe; Especially in the basin of the Middle East and the Mediterranean, the man, abandoned the nomadic life to settle permanently, began to tame animals.
The relationship between land ownership and social roles and structures soon became fundamental. In the classical and Latin worlds, the agrarian system was based on the division of land according to the need of the city and the publicus, as well as in the biennial rotation, where in the autumn about half of the land was sown with cereals and the other half Left to rest (maggese).
It is evident that agricultural evolution has generated a rural and urban structure that is so correlated that urbanism, ruralism, social structures, population distribution and city / country relations have become the cause of the agricultural cause.
Over the last 60 years, then, the policies following the various International Treaties (Recall European Rome in 1960) have accelerated even more a process that, with the Industrial Revolution, had led agriculture out of the Ecosystem Alvee and then out By the Rules of Nature.
Agriculture outside of ecological rules and principles is misguided and misleading agriculture that leads the Man away from organizational models of which Mother Nature is Master and wisdom dispenser.
So you’ve moved from Ecological Energy Models to Industrial Power Models. In summary, the Multidisciplinary Models of the Erosion Modeled Standard Systems Industry. From the concepts of Quality of the Ecosystem to the concepts of Industrial Quality. Two diametrically opposite concepts: Standard, Homologation, Uniformity on the one hand (Industrial); Variability, Adaptability, Disorders, etc.
We are so confronted with a Conceptual Revolution and therefore Cultural even before Scientific and Technique.
The future started from the ruins of the old Industrial Model of the Man of Illuministic Reason arrived at the epistemological terminus of a very poor Idea of ​​Life and therefore destined to (historically) fail.
So it must be Agriculture itself to be the center and the pivot of the new Unification Revolution where the principles and foundations (or columns if you prefer) of the new course will have to move in sync with the only principles nobody can ever deny: those of Nature or, if you prefer, the Ecosystem.
But what kind of agriculture do we have to expect?
Belong to the great international movements, which are worth mentioning here, such as those of the International Movement Via Campesina, which brings together peasant organizations from various parts of the world with the main aim of promoting agricultural and food policies Solid and sustainable, and as the most FAO Governance with its latest family farming records, it is clear that future agriculture will have to start looking around just in the world of ecology and not in the world just made of raw numbers generated by the Industrial Revolution .
We all know that the ecological and organizational primordium is the cell as the promoter of the largest ecological structure. Thus, as the primordium of the great social structure, there must be another functionally and structurally mobile structure: Mobile Agriculture.
Like all cells Cellular Agriculture will have to be structured on a Core that in this case will have to be represented by micro social organizations, of which the family remains the most sublime model.
Around this core, cell protection will have to find a cell membrane membrane (concept that we will explain shortly).
Within a functional diversity (biodiversity of energy and production processes), where the individual services guaranteed by each production unit guarantee the Energy Efficiency Model of the Ecosystem.
The Membrane becomes in this sense that physical and functional part that acts as osmosis and the exchange of various ecological, structural and economic processes between various cells.
A membrane that is therefore made up of ecological features (Plants, Hedges, Green Filters, etc.), which synchronize and functionally guarantee the functionalities of the various organisms of the three levels: Soil Biodiversity, Fauna and Flora Biodiversity, and Biodiversity Exchange (Insects , Pronubi, Birds, Winds, Waters, etc.).
These bases are dictated by ecological functional models without which the Agricultural Models and consequent Human Models (Rurality and Urbanization) are destined to fail.
The Cellular Agriculture Organization will therefore be the Cause and Effect of a New Cellular Civilization, where Social Structure, Market Organizations and the Globalization System will move on the three fundamental principles of the Ecological Economy:
• Diversity;
• Proximity;
• Sobriety.
As in the contribution to Gaia’s economy, these three functions will be the basis of all processes by remodeling the whole social structure of our nations and their relationships. A social system, to use a recent Glocale term. Where globalization and local organizations no longer come into conflict but are the structure and function of the other.
The transition from post-industrial agriculture to Mobile Agriculture drags with the entire scientific and technical plant of the last decades, placing a significant spartitrafficity between the first and the later.
Between the monolithic research and the search for complexity, between the agriculture of individual cultivation and that of the reciprocity of ecological functions, between the mass organization undifferentiated to that of the specific character of the individual services.
A revolution that will drag and drop the whole production, organizational, structural, distributive, and so on. That starting from farms, I corrected, Business Cells, will bring to a new company.
The experiences of the recent PSRs, the systems of their calls, the mega structures (energetically and economically improperly) of Support to World Agricultural Policies have made their course.
History is opening a new course and the Time of the Cathedrals (as in the same song of the Cocciante Notre Dame de Paris Opera) ends. In fact, to pay homage to this unsurpassed prophecy, I would like to quote her finally: “…. The poet, sings the time and the end of the era of great authoritarian, ieratic and dogmatic buildings. Stone ornaments become statues. The images of saints become true painting. The canon, the organ and the bells become music. The hymn and epigraph become poetry. Earth touches the sky. The time of cathedrals surrounded by the reality of men collapses. ”
No one attempts to restore the past, he always serves as his experience and teaching (also and through his mistakes), the New History has begun and we are all already protagonists starting from that great adventure that is Agriculture: Before Teach in the Creation of Creation by Man.
