Abstract
This article grapples with two pressing problems endemic to capitalist agriculture: the exploitation of nonhuman animals and the enclosure of the agricultural commons. How might a post-growth food transition support animal liberation and restore access to the means of food production? Care farming, an international paradigm integrating agriculture and healthcare through the therapeutic use of farming, may offer a path forward. Employing speculative ethnography, the article explores an expanded and more inclusive political ecology of care farming. It argues, through three fictional vignettes, that care farming and animal rights can resolve practical challenges for one another. The cultural and legal recognition of domesticated animals as members of society is a means for mitigating anthropocentric practices in care farming. Scaling up care farming, in turn, is a way of welcoming domesticated animal citizens into public space and community life. Attending more to social and spatial configurations than technologies, the vignettes hold high- and low-tech approaches to agriculture, interspecies communication, and democratic deliberation in tension. The article concludes by reflecting on questions for further consideration.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
