  2. No surprises here - the same is happening in France, even with subsidies for organic production!

    New Zealand vineyards reverting 100 ha from organic back to conventional practices. “… switching back to conventional farming practices, wineries were able to get higher crop yields while reducing operational costs in tough economic times.”

  3. I was incredibly lucky to grow up in a slice of Eden, eating fruit straight from the trees and veges straight out of the ground.

    My Dad is a compulsive gardener, and it was his patient explanations of his techniques that began my education in ecology and organic food production. Our semi-wild backyard was one of the seeds of my love of wild nature, along with local parks and family visits to wilderness areas.

    I love the idea of backyard gardening.

  4. Dar Slaouia is an organic farm operating according to the principles of permaculture. In this experimental farm, all the work is done by hand, the old seeds are reproduced and reused in the vegetable garden. They only grow with organic and old seeds

  7. "In November, 2019 a group of 85 farmers gathered in a mixed cropping farm and a dairy farm near Leeston, Canterbury, to find out what they could learn about regenerative agriculture. They marveled at healthy pasture, dug in the rich black foot-deep top soil, heard stories from their peers, and visited some happy, healthy cows. The field day organisers were blown away by the attendance and enthusiasm of the crowd."

  8. You want to go work on #organicFarms but you don't know where to start.

    You talk to #farmers you know and they suggests #aggregatorWebsites all of them are sending data outside the country

    Were previous generations told by potential employers to talk to random people overseas noone knows to work on a farm?

    Or is something askew here?

  9. "What would help is a reversal of the … lack of investment in agro-ecological, nature-friendly methods and farmer-led technology. We should be investing in solutions that deal with the cause of disease and pests in the first place, including a lack of crop diversity, the decline in beneficial insects, and animal overcrowding."

  10. If you want to know if a block of land in France is being farmed organically, now you can look it up online! Filters are provided for field crops, forage crops, vegetables, fruit, grapes, perfume/medicinals and finally, others (which includes olives).

    I note that our vineyards are correctly identified as being organic... :-)

  12. ORGANIC FARMING FAILURE in #SriLanka.

    Apparently one of the reasons for President #GotabayaRajapaksa's downfall earlier this year was his "overnight" shift to organic #fertiliser.

    It apparently resulted in a 20% drop in #grain yield.

    Also #tea yield "dropped tremendously".

    Surely there's a way to grow tea using #organicFarming or #biodynamic farming methods.

    What can we learn from this apparent failure?
