What a hero. A real, true custodian of earth. If only people knew how this farming method and the produce could heal most of the peoples' health issues, right down to healthier thinking!
Wow, fascinating, thank you for this. You've explained it beautifully in a nutshell. I had no idea that yarrow, dandelion flowers, etc. were used that way.
I love this: ""Some biodynamic practitioners burn insects when the Sun is in the constellation of Taurus and then they use the ash of the insects and springle it on the land to give a signal to that species of insects is not welcomed on that piece of land." I hope it works, and if it does, that is great and so easy to do! Thank you, Jeff Poppen. :)
The Man was not only a Prophet, but provided humanity answers, to many of the dilemmas we are increasingly facing. The best Wines in the World, is done via Bio-Dynamic Farming. Dr. Steiner's methods need to be utilized much more then it is. I truly beleive it will be lol. It is just going to take a while for the world to catch onto his works. Be early to the party all, "Be the Change You Want To See."
Found this video very interesting how you can apply both methods of composting boidynamic concepts using parts of of an animals to create compost nothing goes to waste whihc are permauclture principles. applying these methods make logic sense when preparing the soil humus an compost combined.
Wow! It really is possible to not use pesticides. The only reason wheat and corn farmers have to aggressively use them is because they're monocropping.
Interesting & motivates me to research more. I’m not sure why the herbs/blossoms need to be put into dead animal parts. Couldn’t you just make a compost pile with the plant material & add to water to make fertilizer “tea”? The sewing of animal organs and moon phases sounds witchy.
I’m wondering if it has to do with the energy it releases? Similar to burned insects giving off the signal that those insects are not welcome there? Maybe it has a predatory energy?
It has indigenous roots so sure, a little witchy. I’ve made most of the peeps, and they have archetypal reasons for the plant and animal pairings as well as chemical reasons.
Here is the comparison between modern organic farming and older bio-dynamic farming which seems there is quite lot of differences but, if we dig into older organic farming and older bio-dynamic farming i find little or no differences between them.
The nutritional value is incompatible with organic farming. I can imagine how much micro-elements in those plants among the other things! They have anti-cancer properties.
Man, I was very excited and 100% down until 2:50... Then it just slowly devolved into yet another odd agricultural tradition that probably works well but likely not for the reasons they claim it does.
I like the holistic approch of taking care of plants, soil, animals and humans. But for the ritual-based practices, it is just stuff that humans made up and some people choses to belive in, like any religion. I would stick to the things that works (scientifically approved) and cut out the other parts. You can still live just as harmonically without the time consuming rituals.
Rituals throughout time have had scientific reasons for the strength, most scientific institutions are too afraid and Christian influenced to give Biodynamics a chance. Just look at the history of the Alan Chadwick garden at UCSC, he spear headed their sustainable ag department but pushed him off the land.
I was more or less on board until the burning of insects/Tarus then I burst out laughing. Now everyone thinks I'm the crazy person at the corner table in the coffee joint.
Not even 30 seconds in and I already detected several false statements: - Organic farming doesn't require rebuilding the humus - Organic farming definitely allows the use of chemicals, even pesticides. They just have to be approved. Some pesticides like pyrethrum/pyrethrins kill bees.

We are learning! Juat have to un-learn A LOT of misguided and misleading information first :)
this guy is the most interesting realist horticulturalist ive been able to see, truely an interesting Man with a vast amount of knowledge. 10/10
This is incredible. Great to see the ancient knowledge of indigenous Europeans put to use like this.
Your videos are by far, the best, most informative for the novice gardener. Very groovy, thanks
Wow, fascinating, thank you for this. You've explained it beautifully in a nutshell. I had no idea that yarrow, dandelion flowers, etc. were used that way.
I think I found the approach that suits me. Thank you for explaning this
Man he is informative! Great information
I'm really into this.

wonder where they learned that from...
It seems cruel.Insects suffer too...
It's mystical pseudo science
It is the principle of homeopathy, 'like cures like'.
Anything is easy when you make stuff up.
Thank you, Brother. Very complete honest explanation.
Great message , so positive and truthful , Cheers !

Very informative, an interesting model of sustainable agriculture indeed. Thank you Jeff Poppen.

This info that Jeff gives is superb , thank you!....................................Ken&Beverly...Pennsylvania

This is fantastic! It's like the Hogwarts of growing plants. I'm so going to wear a wizard hat to my P-Patch.
Bio dynamics is fuckin amazing. My mind is blown 🤯
Absolutely fascinating!!
What if i cant get stag can i use any other animal? Also can other local rock be used in place of quartz ?
I too am starting this journey and curious as to the valididity of substitutes.
Could one use worm castings in/on a biodynamic farm if one didn’t want to us animal intestines as casings for creating humus?
Really interesting.
What do these small amounts do?
What does swirling water for an hour do?
It's supposed to structure the water - look up structured water and vortex
The vortex has infinite surface area, so it binds to the preps applied.
this is so wonderful!
How are the pests controlled in this system?
The ecosystem ideally keeps it's own system of checks and balances. Otherwise, attempted removal by hand would be the option I'd assume?
Excuse me, how did you get those cow organs 🤨
His farm includes roaming cattle. Cows die from time to time.
advise for new startups in the Caribbean, please

I feel like I'm learning about a modern ancient religion
Seems rather homeopathic in approach, to make the forces in the materials dominate over the materials.
The nutritional value is incompatible with organic farming. I can imagine how much micro-elements in those plants among the other things! They have anti-cancer properties.
like por los subtitulos en arebe
Tillage can damage important soil biology and is not advised in a biodynamic agricultural system.
Man, I was very excited and 100% down until 2:50... Then it just slowly devolved into yet another odd agricultural tradition that probably works well but likely not for the reasons they claim it does.
Biodynamics in 2033: potato skins inside of an infant's skull, buried into the soil in the fall. This method is ludicrous.
It’s actually witchcraft.

Done smoked too much dope
Sorry to say but this sounds like overblown hogwash...
Wow this is wacky. Good watch tho
I was more or less on board until the burning of insects/Tarus then I burst out laughing. Now everyone thinks I'm the crazy person at the corner table in the coffee joint.
The burning method is called peppering and works with rodent pelts too.
snake oil is slowly crawling back after the peak of petroleum.

When does nature do this mess. It is a shame people try to teach others nonsense.
Damn you’re dumb as hell
@@gawsrocks Thank you very much. Me being dumb is great seeing how it allows me not to believe in BS.
@Scott M enjoy your stupidity
Fake
How does one fake a farm tour?
