9781601731340: The Biological Farmer: A Complete Guide to the Sustainable & Profitable Biological System of Farming

Synopsis

Biological farming was around long before researchers and entrepreneurs began their search for the best biologicals. The biological farming system developed decades ago by Gary Zimmer doesn t manipulate soil life or sell it; it instead creates the conditions where soil life flourishes. His system feeds soil microbes, balances soil minerals, promotes tillage with a purpose, and relies on both cover crops and diverse rotations. Gary Zimmer and Leilani Zimmer-Durand have created a thoughtful road map for farmers looking to learn more about how their soils work, improve their current operations, build resilience against both natural and financial challenges, and leave a lasting legacy in healthy & productive soils.

The results...
- Higher yields & profits for growers
- Better forage & increased productivity for dairy and beef cattle
- More nutritious food for consumers
- Reduced greenhouse gas emissions
- More soil organic matter
- Improved soil health

In this greatly revised and expanded edition of the modern classic the authors take the art and science of biological agriculture to new levels.
