The latest issue of "Countryside" magazine
(Sept/Oct) contains Part I of an article entitled "Achieving Food Independence
on the Modern Homestead" and this first part focus mainly on what it calls the
beginning: the soil. The author, Harvey Ussery states, "We must never be
casual about wise use of the soil."
It's a good article, touching on many of the points
we've been discussing: the need for organic matter, avoidance of excessive
tillage, the contrast of natural systems versus those of agriculture,
vermiculture, cover crops... Looks to be the start of a good
series.
