  • Watch Beyond 50's book trailer on "The One Straw Revolution" that is narrated by the book's editor Larry Korn. In 1973, he was under the tutelage of his Sensei (teacher), Masanobu Fukuoka, who lived in Shikoku Island, Japan. Korn received a hands-on education in the art of non-cultivation and do-nothing, natural farming. Translated in many languages, Masanobu Fukuoka wrote "The One Straw Revolution," (New York Book Reviews), a classic memoir and guide. You'll learn about his philosophy and the Four Principles of Natural Farming: no cultivation; no chemical fertilizer or prepare compost; no weeding by tillage and herbicides; and no dependence on chemicals. Even though his methods require less labor, it can result in higher yields for your farm or garden. To learn more, visit www.onestrawrevolution.net.

    Natural Farming is not simply a way of growing crops; it is the cultivation and perfection of human beings - Fukuoka sensei
    Perfect!

    This brings tears to my eyes because it's the truth, and because it's so desperately needed.

    read the book 3 years ago and let most of my backyard be naturally regenerated. my neighbor hated it at first but now is seeing the logic of it. i call it bird, bee, bug and frog TV.

    It's quite profound, the way of nature.
    See, water can be held without interfering in the balance of earthly cycles for there's 25 times a much water in the ocean as there is on land. Trees are proficient at holding water and taking up carbon from the CO2 in the air, feeding many species in the process and providing fertility for an entire ecosystem. Given that all earth bound life is based on water, by planting a tree you're promoting life.
    Plant a tree each day in the same area and in some 15 years you'll have promoted the growth of a forest which could potentially feed thousands of humans for indefinite time. Since forests don't heat up as much as bare land the temperatures in air columns are lower over forests and so they attract rain due to low pressure gradients. If enough land is covered in trees, the temperature in the whole world would drop and the air would become rich, the skies calm and life easy as it is supposed to be.
    For such is nature, cherished and shared it grows, disrespected and consumed it diminishes.

      I loved this book, it changed my perspective on farming completely and to some extent I would say it even changed my world view! Have you read it since? What did you think? Have you implemented any of the philosophy yourself? I'm starting my own gardening now and am trying to put these lessons into practice the best I can.

    Fantastic! One of the most inspiring films about natural farming. Have recently gotten into the ideas of Masanobu Fukuoka and find it brilliant in its natural simplicity and essence of being in Harmony with Nature. Thanks for sharing this film. Peace

    It's basically using life....cover cropping w/ living plants instead of petroleum based fertilizer...Bread from Stones is also a great book....Julius Hensel had the mineral deficiency figured out in 1893

    I have read that Mollison wants a copyright to the term so that universities and other organizations cannot take it and ruin the essence of permaculture. He said he wants to keep "universities from destroying it and its very meaning". I don't think he is trying to scam folks out of their money. Making a living teaching permaculture is probably not a road to riches.

      When reading "One Straw Revolution", I found myself wondering whether Paul Gautschi was strongly influenced by this book and by Fukuoka-san. Many of the insights from the Back to Eden film are already present here.

    Totally agree with everything he said, especially we 'modern people' has no time for our own and our children or loved ones. ironic. Modernisation is suppose to make life better... it looks better but doesn't feel better... something great is missing.

    That is just not true Nancy R I have met Bill a few times and even had he privilage to be do one of his course. Bill spoke highly of Masanobu, & Bill actually doesn't make any money & he owns nothing. Everything he uses belongs to the Permaculture institute. You really should read more on hour things are structured. Permaculture is a gift and s Bill said to us it is never finished being written for we all can add to it.
