Organic farming; Organic gardening

For anyone already practicing, or turning to, biodynamic gardening and farming methods, numerous detailed questions arise. This manual, fully illustrated with explanatory diagrams and photographs, provides the answers. The book covers all aspects of making and using biodynamic preparations and composts and more.

This second edition also has extensive new chapters on large-scale farming, including livestock and cereal cultivation, and vegetable farming. The whole book has also been completely revised and updated.

Although the technical aspects of biodynamic growing are exhaustively covered, the author also considers the human qualities necessary for this kind of agriculture to succeed.

This is an invaluable guide for all biodynamic growers to have to hand daily.
