The five principles of Natural Farming are that:
human cultivation of soil, plowing or tilling are unnecessary, as is the use of powered machines
prepared fertilizers are unnecessary, as is the process of preparing compost
weeding, either by cultivation or by herbicides, is unnecessary. Instead only minimal weed suppression with minimal disturbance
applications of pesticides or herbicides are unnecessary
pruning of fruit trees is unnecessary
My parents practised this with 5 acres of mixed gardens and with Chickens, rabbits....etc. I would like to know if anyone has had success with this method in the DR.
