The fukuoka farming mailing list may have what you want. I am sure your 
question would be answered there. You can also browse the message 
archives without joining. There may be documents to read and download 
that will be of use also.

Description
The Fukuoka Farming Mailing List was created to discuss Masanobu 
Fukuoka's revolutionary method of natural farming. Discussion of 
Fukuoka's books, ongoing projects in Fukuoka Farming, creating and 
dispersing seed balls, and anything else to do with Masanobu Fukuoka, 
his life and work are all encouraged. This list was primarily created as 
a place for people interested in Fukuoka's methods to network and share 
resources. Let's help change the way people think about growing food.

“Body and Earth Are Not Two”: Kawaguchi Yoshikazu’s NATURAL FARMING and 
American Agricultural Writers - KATO, SADAMICHI - An old phrase which 
has recently become popular again in Japan is “Shindo-fuji.” This means, 
literally translated, “Body and Earth Are Not Two.” That is, our human 
bodies and the land from which we get our food are closely connected.
