    Soy is also the easiest mass farmed nitrogen fixer. If anything we should be growing more soy and less maize.

      Less maize and replace it with a wider variety of edible crops intended for domestic food consumption. Beans, lentils, peas, chickpeas, peanuts, alfalfa are all nitrogen fixers. We already have more soy than we know what to do with, it’s insane.
