Mark Shepard of Viola, Wisconsin speaks to organic farmers about his
permaculture farm, his experiences and techniques in modeling
agriculture after natural, 3-dimensional ecosystems using tree and
shrub agroforestry, keyline water management, rotational grazing, and
more.
He also explains why it is imperative that we take up these techniques
immediately and on a large scale in order to sequester carbon, combat
climate change, stop soil erosion, deal with peak oil, improve our
air, water, and wildlife habitat, all while being more resilient and
financially-viable than conventional monoculture farming. If you like
this video, you can get more details about Mark's methods in his
excellent new book:

Restoration Agriculture
by Mark Shepard
New from Acres U.S.A.
Around the globe most people get their calories from “annual”
agriculture — plants that grow fast for one season, produce lots of
seeds, then die. Every single human society that has relied on annual
crops for staple foods has collapsed. Restoration Agriculture explains
how we can have all of the benefits of natural, perennial ecosystems
and create agricultural systems that imitate nature in form and
function while still providing for our food, building, fuel and many
other needs — in your own backyard, farm or ranch. This book, based on
real-world practices, presents an alternative to the agriculture
system of eradication and offers exciting hope for our future.
