The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming (New York Review Books Classics) by Masanobu Fukuoka


An interesting account of farming in Japan using no plowing for grain crops and almost no tending, certainly no pruning in orchards. Also what we now call slow food – eating what is in season and available locally. Look at nature and natural processes as a whole. Humans may be capable of analyzing, researching portions of it but cannot understand  or control the whole.
