Keri Brandt Off and Janine
Fitzgerald are professors of sociology at Fort Lewis
College in Durango, Colorado, and they're both ranchers. They've
coined the term "zombie agriculture" to describe a food system that
raises food from dead soil--it looks like it's alive but doesn't
have the life or history or interactive communities on the level of
either soil or interpersonal relatedness. Can we keep it from
eating our brains?
