> Masanobu Fukuoka's influence on holistic agriculture has been

> astonishingly effective farmer. More than anyone else, he has
> extended the idea that we can grow ample high-quality food for
> human's by working with Nature rather than against her. (Check out

> economic success.)

> ""The ultimate goal of farming is not the growing of crops, but the
> cultivation and perfection of human beings," Masanobu Fukuoka writes
> in his book "The One Straw Revolution." He has spent 30 years
> perfecting his agricultural techniques on his fertile farm in
> southern Japan. Fukuoka says that his approach to agricultural
> problems always starts with the question, "How about not doing such
> and such?" in contrast to most agricultural thinking which
> presupposes that we can improve on nature.
>
> Mr. Fukuoka has decided not to plow, not to grow rice in flooded
> fields, and not to use machinery to sow or harvest. What he does do
> on his farm is documented in this unique record of a full year of
> overlapping crops."

> This series on human-scale sustainable agriculture, inspired by
> Howard Shapiro's excellent book, GARDENING FOR THE FUTURE OF THE
> EARTH, continues at the Blue Ridge Center in Purcellville, VA
> (www.brces.org), Thursday evenings at 7pm, in the trailor this week.
> It is presented by the Blue Ridge Center intern program. Call or
