Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

I think we need to stop regular industrial agriculture to save the planet 
Lynn. Allan Savory is right in exlaining that grazing is important for 
improving vegetation growth but acts like plowing and chemicals like roundup 
are most definitely not. Kill the micro organisms in the soil and you have 
created something deader than the desert and you will need a long term 
grazing regimen to turn that around. And I would not like to eat those poor 
grazers.
