Hi, April

Seems like the more we learn the more we realize we don't know.

Here I was looking for common denominators/signs that could be applied to my
farm.

I value your knowledge and experience and your logic here seems persuasive
about weeds having different indicator values depending on soil, locality
and a host of possible other factors.

After a while a lot of this becomes so complex that it becomes frustrating.
I'd like fairly clear cut proven ideas and systems to emulate on the farm I
hope to purchase real soon. I'd like to utilize best thinking , design it
into a system that takes into account soil, climate, natural patterns, and a
host of other local factors, and human preferences etc.

Appreciate your thoughts on such a system...is there a system that is adapted
especially for given bioregions etc. that work with nature rather than
against it, but still allows us to produce food, utilize pasture etc.

I know this is very, very broad and subject to all sorts of qualifications,
and outside factors.

My dream is to have an old fashioned small scale farm with a variety of farm
fitted enterprises that work with nature, and is sustainable, and
economically feasible.

Whew...anybody care to expand or comment on this. frank
