The European Network
for Scientific Research Coordination in Organic Farming
. Organic farmers realize that the soil is a living entity, therefore
organic practices feed the soil which in turn feed the plant. Organic
farming is a management intensive, not a material intensive, technology;
materials are a supplementary tool in a balanced farm management program.
Organic farmers attempt to understand and work in harmony with the natural
biological systems on the farm, not override them with chemicals (even
naturally derived ones). They strive to develop cultural and biological
means of crop nutrition and protection that are balanced, sustainable, and
resilient.

became friends about 10 yr. ago he was working in practical microbiology
and I was an organic farmer. If you would like to see some quotes from his

leaf samples and soil samples of my farm and farms around me and have
proved to myself that organic farming works. I get my soil Microbes from
