(And Fruits, Nuts, Berries, Grains, and Other Crops) Than You Ever Thought Possible On Less Land Than You Can Imagine.
Sixth Edition.
For over 30 years, this pioneering work has continued to revolutionise food production around the world. While many people tend to look for big solutions to global concerns such as malnutrition, environmental researcher John Jeavons proves that the answers are often found in our backyards - that is, in how we grow our food.
Written for the individual gardener, this is the bible on growing biointensive mini-farming, a method that produces high yields of food crops in very small spaces while nourishing the soil and reducing the use of chemicals.
This newly revised and significantly expanded edition incorporates the latest techniques and methods developed by Jeavons and many others around the world who have adopted this increasingly necessary method of small-scale food production.
Features:
- Written for gardeners and farmers of all levels with any-sized plot of land
- Includes detailed charts with essential information for growing a wide range of crops
