Biodynamic Farming and Gardening

 

In this revised and updated edition of his pioneering book (earlier titled, Grasp the Nettle), Peter Proctor succinctly outlines the application of biodynamic methods to a wide range of farming and gardening operations. Proctor provides practical observation and biodynamic techniques, tips on how to recognise healthy soil and pasture, and how to make biodynamic preparations. This edition includes new ideas on applying the preparations; appendices on understanding the planting calendar and the influence of the planets; and covers recent advances in biodynamic practice and techniques in New Zealand, Australia and India.
