It all starts with Healthy soils

When one looks at the practices of modern Agriculture we find that we are working purely out of the mineral kingdom of nature. This is a lifeless kingdom immersed and manifest in the physical. For a true sense of Agriculture we need a balance, a natural occurring symbiosis between the four kingdoms of nature. These kingdoms are the mineral kingdom, the plant kingdom, the animal kingdom and the kingdom of man. "Life begetting life" sets our mode of approach. There are no internal diseases in plants they all come from the outside towards the plant, and the plant is nothing more than it's response to the environment in which it grows. The healthier the soil the healthier the plants growing from it will be.

The soil is the environment of many plant activities. Plants are anchored in it, water and nutrients are absorbed from it, vast stores of food are accumulated in underground plant parts, and it is in the soil where much vegetative propagation occurs. Of the two environments in which plants grow, the soil is much the more complex. This is true whether air and soil are each considered from the physical, chemical, or biological viewpoint. The soil not only affects the development and activities of roots directly, but also, by modifying the functioning of roots, it affects the growth and yield of aboveground parts. Next to the living organisms which it supports, soil is perhaps the most complex, the most interesting, and the most wonderful thing in nature. It is not mere dirt.
