🇺🇦🙏 Bukovyna TRO soldiers spent 28 days digging an underground tunnel under Russian positions, working bent over in the pipe and on painkillers.

In June 2024, six soldiers worked in a former irrigation pipe with a diameter of 1.3 meters in the Pokrovsk direction.

"Jorge" has 25 years of experience operating tractors and working in ag. "I am preparing the soil where different vegetables will soon be planted. Once the land is ready, the irrigation crews come in to install the pipes and set up the irrigation system." #WeFeedYou

All right - but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, public health, and extending Man United’s banter era for at least another fortnight, what have the Romans ever done for us?

I haven't quite got the irrigation the way I want it but I recycled something I was using for the herbs for now while I consider it!

Hori hori and my irrigation shovel. Both are good for getting out deep roots in narrow spaces. 🌱
Little fun theme for the week, is there a tool or piece of equipment that you absolutely cannot live without in your garden? Want to share it and why? Perhaps it could help a fellow gardener out! #GardensHour

What the $&%* is a noria, you ask?

It's a hydropowered waterwheel used for irrigation and water supply that moves water from lower to higher elevations.

Good metaphor, non?

"Israel is systematically blowing up southern Lebanese villages and towns, poisoning farmland with high concentrations of glyphosate, destroying essential farming equipment and irrigation systems, burning ... orchards, and taking further measures to ensure people cannot return to their homes[.]"
"[P]lan hatched over 100 years ago."

"Israel is conducting a third colonial campaign of ethnic cleansing."

"[O]ver 1.2 million people, a fifth of Lebanon's population, forcibly displaced from the south."

But you saw the President's closing argument about bermuda grass and irrigation? It's always been about landscaping.

I’ve set up the irrigation so if any children try to access my property on this spooky night they will be ambushed. 🎃👻

An unsuspecting Domino's driver is verbally confronted by two large inflatable bananas.

A child just asked if I have an irrigation system, and another asked if i know the importance of beneficial aphids in the garden (yes to both)

I try to grow my own food without irrigation. Ask me how it’s going this year.

Problem: Drought
Solution: Irrigation

Problem: Erosion
Solution: Fertilizer

Problem: Heat
Solution: ACs
...
Problem: Humans
Solution: Extinction
I don't want to irrigate the #food crops I grow. I don't collect rainwater. If I needed to manually irrigate, even with rainwater, I would be keeping crops artificially alive. I seek resilience, adaptation and low work. Ergo I don't adjust sowing & planting to an invented calendar 📆 but to nature 🌧️
