      Hi, I am new to farming and was curious about no till paddy farming. This is a very informative video. Could you also share details of how black velvet beans is sowed in April without tilling? Unfortunately I don't have much time and I got green manure beans called jeelugu which grow tall. Could you advise if I could still try no tilling? Do you harvest by hand? Do we have to add organic inputs too?

      Hi Krishna, how many harvests per year can you get like that on what acreage and what sort of yelid? I'd really appreciate your answer. Love your Teachings. You are a great influence on us. Thank you and God bless. Jai Sri Ram!

    Greetings from Queensland Australia. I’ve put in a food forest in a 3/4 acre suburban property, converting lawn to food. My principles are very much in line with your approach. Yes I have my grafted fruit trees but I also eat and encourage the common weeds. I’m using woodchip for my organic material as it’s a free local resource that will otherwise be dumped. I’m planting pigeon pea and ice cream bean from seed to build up material and nitrogen fixation. I use pumpkin and sweet potato to cover the ground. But I’m going to scatter more legume seed inspired by your teachings. I think I need to plant denser. Longevity spinach is one of my favorite greens. We also love our green smoothies! We add turmeric, ginger and citrus to flavor a wide selection of greens.

    I used this method on an extremely smaller scale (my garden). I spread out the seeds and then pulled up all the ground cover and overgrown weeds. I have to tell you I had more plants sprout and grow than trying to sprout them inside under all these "scientific and chemical" methods. You still need to think and plan what you are planting together so that they will work together. I can not wait for the next season.

    disturbance cycles are not necessarily harmful. annuals expect disturbance cycles in some form. this video just popped into my head as i was thinking about things. this is actually pretty smart and really well adapted to their bio-region.

    • @Swansen03
      @Swansen03 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sangram Takmoge sure, couple examples come to mind. Firstly, the vast majority of our commonly available annuals came from one region in the world grown under great care and turned soil, it's what they were bred under.
      Next, I was at this small organic farm and they had this problem in the past, at a certain point, nothing would grow. So the farmer lightly turned some areas and in others used a spike roller/aerator to move the soil around. Most annuals expect a bacterial dominated soil, this would happen with disturbance cycles. Undisturbed soil becomes fungus dominant and not so desirable for many annuals. (also fungally dominant soil tends to favor/create acidic soil levels, such as those found in forests, this isn't as huge a deal, but can be a contributing factor)
      Lastly, in the wild, annuals would be present after a distubance, which are actually natural in Prarie systems from grazing or digging animals. However, depending on the bioregion, there are forested systems which would undergo similar disturbance cycles from animal activity and annuals are the first to fill the void.
      However! it's important to note, these are not repeate cycles, I'm not justifying deeply turning over the same soil every single season, but it's like everything in permaculture, right method at the right time for the right system.
