I'm an agronomist by training (turned software dev 16 years ago) and worked on a number of kinds of farms early in my career.
I've always gardened but during COVID really ramped it up and grow about 1/3 of my own food.
I grow organically with a full spectrum of minerals in primarily rich diverse compost I make (and buy as needed).
I feel and look better than I did 10 years ago and will be 56 this coming spring. Seriously, I get looks from much younger women when I'm out and it always surprises me because I'm an old man. My skin glows. I have a lot of energy. That didn't happen as much before I started eating like this.
This has caused me to take soil depletion and "growing stuff too fast" very seriously and think it may be the root cause of a lot of problems we see around us.
