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.
/Softcover, 344 pages. Includes full-color photo section./
