We Eat the Earth explores the ways in which our collective appetite reshapes the Earth and how the production of nutrients required for ­agriculture impacts our political and physical environments.

From Sweden to Western Sahara, ­England to occupied Palestine, ­Germany to the Netherlands, this book maps the material flows of ­nitrogen, potassium and ­phosphate fertiliser between eight key sites. We Eat the Earth reveals the destabilising global impact of ­fertiliser production and the devastating ­environmental and ­socio-political ­consequences of its extraction, ­production and ­management. Finally, through its focus on a small, but expanding group of ­farmers ­committed to producing food ­without the use of fertiliser, the ­project also offers a hopeful view for the future of agriculture.
