8:15 pm
and a young man who came here as a teenager, then he was a radicalized here in germany, and authorities believe that there was a religious extreme, this motive behind this. so, and all that. so it's clearly very moved after having spoken to the emergency services today. and you are up to date on melissa jan from me and the team. thank you for watching the we are all set and we are watching to see all the to bring you the story behind the new the will on about come by as information for free might say due to the
8:16 pm
the earth beneath us is home to immeasurable treasures billions of tiny creatures team and just a handful of healthy soil. it's cheaper to see and we get some energy that didn't exist before just from living organisms. living soil is the foundation of our life. if you include a much larger part of bio diversity lives below the soil station. and yet most fields are silent as intense agriculture and extreme weather put pressure on the soil with considerable b. e a couple. can anything be done? if it's so bad that we have to repair a broken soil the
8:17 pm
as a drop down, i own a farm. it's been in our family since the 16 hundreds and know it's my turn to view . if i treat the soil the way it's being treated everywhere, my grandson will be able to lift from california to match the emission farms south of berlin, near the village of flaming. and to come on a move in. okay, you can really see that the soil is degraded shod, and that's a shame on the facility is degraded. you could, you can even stick your finger in it, cuz cuz you can barely bring it up within one bit. soon as you can see, there's still a moisture down here, but the, so it was a mess. it can no longer be generates itself and you know, these limits will be going to be a snap. we realize that we can't go on like this. the soils have reached their limit. why do you see dust storms and sand storms over and over? not just once, but 5 times a year for. they used to happen once every 10 years. so now it's 5 times a year for clearing huge fields to make life easier for combine is just one
8:18 pm
reason soil and northeastern germany has degraded the consequences are obvious, builds, drawing out faster, and also blow away more easily. sandy soils here in yellow cover the region they are the most in fertile soils and also receive the least precipitation. according to the drought monitor, the areas to the east of the river elbow are especially vulnerable. the largest deserts in germany lies in brandenburg south of germany's capital and covers 5 square kilometers. tanks crawled over the sand on this training ground for decades. only specially adaptive plants, dry grasses and lichens have survived. and the li barrows desert. agriculture is on . think about the bundle the subsidies london book has been hit hard and
8:19 pm
eastern. germany generally didn't quite because we're in the more continental part of the country. a long way from the si come. the indies are disappeared in brandenburg and we often happy sandy soils and which are not very good at storing walter once and then. and there's also climate change. i'm thinking with more cds course and a decrease in precipitation. possibly a longer faces without it in summer. that's not in my mind, ultimately makes prime them work especially vulnerable to climate change for you. i think you move on to farmers are alarmed. what will grow in the future? how much will they have to adapt? some are already experimenting with airable asian crops. chick peas, for example, which experts predicts have a future on native european soils. they're seen as a 1st class, so air conditioner. but will they work on the continent? at good to treat as doors in the master's overland region between berlin and poland
8:20 pm
. organic farmer band, hot funded markets, cultivates barren sandy soils is yields of native pulses such as peas and broad beans are waning. is that board and not see? i know who of us others that the soil has very high water permeability, ne almost hoffman. it tries that very quickly up to get a 2 piece new dryer terrain against on it. this is generally good for chip is look, guy is he's a source to 40 bags of seeds from the south of france, but there are no guarantees they will sprouts. the man experimenting and trying a different varieties to figure out which is the best suited to our location of the my i'm up too much on deposit. planning time. the c drill usually plants mays but today took pains. the experiments begins
8:21 pm
it's the end of april and the weather conditions are favorable. the scientists and a regional marketing organization are also interested in whether and how the farmers experiment will succeed. expectations are high, experience is desperately needed. how deep should the seeds be sewed? isabella, how's that works at regular? know that i gave a local food production agency that she wants the garb bonds, so being to become a permanent resident in brandenburg it's the complicated thing about agriculture is that you can never copy paste the bank account and look at the conditions in india, australia, or canada and then do the same here conditions very locally, even within a small radius. you have to do things differently. of course we can look at how things are done of that, but then we always have to rethink everything. 11 hector's will be planted today
8:22 pm
that ideally would translate to 11 tons of the protein power crops. that's the plan, but only time will tell the the field has been divided into several areas to monitor how the chick p grows under different conditions. good in border is a check, pays out perfect for the soil because it to the goods it can accumulate nitrogen and it's perfect for humans because it's rich and protein. it's rich and fine, but it's extremely versatile from chick p flower to check the pasta and chris. it's used everywhere in the kitchen. it's not only healthy, but also extremely tasty. and let's not forget, or goose and falafel. receipt should take 2 to 3 weeks to sprout pits. new home the sandy soil of brandon burn eastern germany
8:23 pm
created by the last ice age around 15000 years ago. layers of river sand, gravel and a few clay particles are typical of this region. but the soil is more than just the layers of sand. to me, this 3 d scan of, of soils sample shows its typical texture, a branch system of routes, passages and cavities. this abundance of space is what makes it so valuable as a water reservoir. a single cubic meter of soil can hold up to 300 leaders of water at its best. it's a large sponge. the soil is basically the most important space for walter interaction on the boat. and in short, a separation of falls in the soil, and the soil decides how much of it actually import traits and how much it runs off on the surface. it's mentioned that of course we humans influence what the soil
8:24 pm
ultimately does, but the water to our land use and soil management the board. and i'm in the summer and organic farm and roofing, or land north of berlin. laina and philip had been thinking a lot about the soil for the past 5 years. their harvest is eaten in restaurants by self pickers and members. but the beginning was not easy. for me it's the 2019 drought correspond completely insane. so it was really like a desert here once we turned it over and it was all open and fair. and i think it had even been killed once over a large area, especially. yes, it looked bad and then come here the summer with the drought center tried at 3040 centimeters down park. phillip in lane hope to counter the poor. sandy soils, by diversifying above and below ground over $120.00
8:25 pm
colorful varieties organic vegetables are cultivated on 3 hector's of land. devotedly. the soil loves diversity to put it in a natural because roots act differently and need different spaces. i there very widely distributed in the notes as we don't yet know all the connections. we don't yet know what exactly happens in this oil, especially with a micro biome. and what the interactions are these excess comb gonzalez are interested about. first of the new studies worldwide fight show that diversity can actually make the soil more resilient to begin this pull than moto cultures can. it's evelyn know which one growing different kinds of vegetables is more work each has its own specific needs. the rare and heirloom varieties grown by the pair are most interesting to customers and the soil likes them to or
8:26 pm
one can meet in. so you can even do a bit of soil building with different crops, quoted, and start. cabbage is a heavy feeder. it takes away a lot of the deepening themes bring in a lot and so on. if you establish a sensible crop rotation, you can also improve the soil in the 12th, even in terms of crump management to this guy. and that's actually the goal that you build up the soil as part of the cultivation itself. instead of depleting it all got it all locked. this is what their fields look like in the off season. short living plans known as cats crops, are planted in the off season to boost diversity and support the soil in venda, we usually salvage and winter civics. it grows a little in the 1st year and continues to grow the next year. so the soil is never bare, know nutrients are washed out, soil life can continue, water is retained better and the following year we already basically have the 1st
8:27 pm
fertilizers step in place. legumes such as rich peas and beans are part of the cure . they draw nitrogen from the air and by working with special bacteria stored in small nodules that the roots does. here you can see it has lots of bacteria nodules here. this provides natural fertilizer for next seasons vegetables. the catch crop is mon and covered if it doesn't freeze off in winter. the soil does the rest making space and food for the vegetables. if you haven't done with a very diverse oil life with a greater diversity, we can better react to sudden events or shocks or fits because there are always certain specialized organisms that come into play the even can. all the documents have these he had said or done some, some good come mark do. mission has already harvested his grain. now he wants to
8:28 pm
diversify his fields such as hold. so this is the main seat of the course seat for the front cuz it contains oats, barley, cheese, betcha, some floors. instead of deluxe one room. ones that are fine or seats such as clover and a be passed or mixture, are also included. greenery and homeless are to be built up in the soil as quickly as possible. compose the very nice going into the, in the fine seed will take about in 2 days all over the course of all that takes a week. what do you find the fine seed starts protein in 2 days and starts forming its 1st here routes and its 1st seedlings and i get this and then it starts again with a covered area. it's basically just the soil conditioner because we don't harvest it and we leave it until next spring. this is where all the big re thinks began 20 years ago. before we used to play after the harvest, to break the rubble and turn the soil over, the students in the soil surfaced
8:29 pm
a spot in marshall. my father always said, let me know, we're not getting anywhere for harvesting so little amount of off my, my not in terms of quintal, but we're harvesting too little for what we're actually putting in the we said ok, we'll stop doing it. we'll do something different po number will just stop by way of your lots of computer. all right. do mission has tried a lot of things. researched, attended. so management courses even travel to brazil to see how crops are grown they're he learned about no till farming were crops or sound directly after the harvest. know, plowing or the seat drill, slits the soil only slightly. protecting solely a life you know, we know from other countries that have been doing this for decades, that it's the only way to say i'm, there is no other way. i don't because i say, so it's your fault. but because all of their ways have been tried for centuries, tony, that's cuz i'm on my for at least about 200 years, went on and all of them up late to carbon pollution and soil fertility degradation,
8:30 pm
approval on board, and full. okay. so frustrate on these now, what fixture in the know till seen, he travels to conferences, gifts talks, and offers guided tours of his farm. he shares with other farmers via social media, and his recognized for his pioneering work. when does won't be enough, he's of course i'm private when someone says ok, he's not talking garbage. what he said is actually true, dusty. this is great timothy. avoid the same mistakes we made 10 or 15 years ago. yeah, i mean, i was, if we already did everything wrong and you ought to be the others, don't need to repeat it and, and gets things come faster, doesn't i'm going and that's probably why we're seeing such an increase in the number of people who are not showing up and starting this everywhere, even if it's just experiments and wondering if i was on the file as many have already switched from ploughing to more gentle cultivation methods, but only a few do direct. so the method has no lobby because it saves both diesel and
8:31 pm
fertilizer. it's just an app. so it has a p here, so that a block that way as an option of white people, he's important another be the school of them. yes, yes. well, now it's quite here in the event the animal world, the insect world, the, the mushroom world can start to live here and process at all. but if we work, the soil who wants to speak to someone in the, the straw on top will be taken away by next year and he does, he does all, it will look like it doesn't matter. and then it will all fall down again on the plants in between die on here. yeah, some do some don't to you some free some don't for yourself on the then least folder and inform the next nutrient carpet for the diversity that we maintain. here for the, the, the tv, the yacht is solely used to only have one percent who, unless now it's 2 percent, which is still very low. creating change is a generational task. we'll just skip and see how the board, the soil is now giving back some of what we'd be putting into it for years. and
8:32 pm
we're realizing that no, because in dry years we still far important. and even in very try years we still far, nothing has gone or broken. no. what does me from the vic ludo a couple but who are the many little helpers for soil fertility? and what do they need to survive? water is clearly critical for also as well as to thrive of the food supply is also crucial. both are in short supply on many soils in brandenburg. so it was a while adjust the quote, showing him on his, on a sand dune, at the edge of a military train, an area she knows that's a desert is also a live. she has already found tiny survivors here such as spring tails. i'll be at sparsely populated, she says, similar to conventionally cultivated farmland,
8:33 pm
and aka has exist everything and these and i've used the field conditions, are relatively similar to a desert and associates. i have not much in part of organic material because any produce ground is usually harvested and isn't returned to the soil. this means that resources, materials are extracted, but not much goes in and done. if only mineral fertilizers are used, there is no organic material for animals to break down applicants. but this meadow is teeming with diversity. the top few centimeters are full of life. it's easy to see in the darker homeless and the soil simple. lots of routes and organic matter. the tricks have to be used to your small insects out of the soil. light in water are used to entice the soil dwellers to move downward through the
8:34 pm
funnel. the 1st to crawl around our horn. mites. 20000 live in one square meter of field. they effectively decompose plant residues and animal pcs. the small spring tales sometimes even appear on mass, but they are shy and sleep from light the evening. they like to live here in the dark. this light is dangerous for such small animals, which don't have much to counter the light solution. if they can perceive dark and light is it so they can withdraw from the light. on c, e most emission, to look to see thread worms also known as name and toads. are by far the most numerous soil dwellers for out of 5 living creatures belong to this group of small
8:35 pm
wriggling worms. they decompose and transport plant residues in the soil. yeah, can we have bacteria eaters? we have fungus eaters. we have algae eaters. in the soil tv, we have the bad guys that peers and stuck out the plant roots on holding all these nima totes accelerate the cycle of decomposition off the so that's all the ones that eat the bacteria and fun guy are particularly busy because they insure more turnover among the bacteria and some guy took him back to you. i don't impede some . so are they also work faster mountain done all you the i know all of i'd surely soils with high fertility are full of fungi and bacteria. me. they decompose particles into the smallest structures and make nutrients available to plants. hot spots are mainly in the roots area,
8:36 pm
where the finest fungal filaments connect with root ends. there is food for everyone, and plenty of plants, sugars. biologists are only just beginning to the site for these previously unknown interactions. the today is an important day for brandon bergs chick be commissioner a run day, but when a field near trip in south west of berlin, high ranking politicians are part of the meetings. the stakes seem higher than at 1st sight the protein power crop, which is set to be both climate resistance and so friendly is of interest to the federal minister of agriculture, as well as a high ranking ministry official and her entourage, isabella, cause it takes the opportunity to promote her project management now i talked to farmers in the region, the more i also sense the dispatcher,
8:37 pm
they have questions about what would we still be able to grow in the future. another very, very important point is cooperation. and we need an association of farmers in the region who say, we believe in chick peas, we will further develop them together. attend the campaign shift, but the trip in agricultural cooperative is also a fan of chick peas. he's making falafel from last year's harvest. but it will only be serv later after the minister has toward the field. meanwhile, the 2 farmers discuss their experiences with the leg him. the farm is known for its willingness to experiment. this we some of us, your knowledge gained here, one, the benefit of all of german agriculture. i come from bottom button back to where we have completely different conditions who are much smaller farm is lots of different soil situation bus to volunteer to be and guess what the farmers they are
8:38 pm
say to me is we're experimenting that we're looking at shouldn't piece. but we're looking at multiple plans so we can add to our range of need it's time for the tasty or part of the event where the minister gets to try brandenburg chick peas. the next comes the less pleasurable part. the realities of farming. the seed failed to sprout in many areas . farmer young a gave out, blames the poor soil quality of the 5th. they're having an incredibly hard time here. if we look to the right left or front and back, the differences are clear. dorothy, the answers have, it's really interesting. i'm so when i look at the sand everywhere, it doesn't look so different at 1st. when you work on here, you realize it's also quite dry. it's like a beach and you're going to send bits of feeling. but yeah, that's right, it's about what makes us different from the desert. understood how long we have
8:39 pm
a bit more rain fall apart from that. we have sandy soil here of 100 kilometers to the east and fleet as doth band hot found a mob. it sits inspecting his chick bees. the rank of variety has sprouted really well. strong growth, dense rows. it's looking good. but it's the only variety and he's only selling one hector, a narrow strip. the rest is a total failure. 10 hector's of trick b. so in advance what's growing here in light green is a substitute sunflowers value and by that row after row, if you could dig of the row and you could really see how every plant was broken. i went out every day and looked, dug and dug. i called and realized, okay, they're starting to germinate and was like, okay, maybe it'll work payment or view your you for it off that i can get them. then i wasn't here for the weekend advice and behind when i came back,
8:40 pm
i thought they should have been here by now. the situation in the grand was the same. like i'm never rotten it smelled of mold. they looked like they'd been eating molding. yeah. shoot me which i can see. busy why is it the soil, or is it the type of check be the light that's institute for agricultural landscape research. analyzed several samples from fried his daughter biologist elizabeth fanning. hoff has a suspicion contagious. i'm to have of you after these tensor here because we found fly larvae on the seats from the farms, and we want to catch them in these 10 systems so that we can identify items and you have the pleasure. you can see it quite clearly here. from here we caught them again, we have to find that they could be one of the reasons why the chick piece of ground . so poorly guns and we're trying to screen under the, at the end of the probably belong to the dfcs b, c's on know a past that feeds on chick peace. aids and chaps is um and nach. this begs the
8:41 pm
question, why did the fly larva only destroy one variety, but ignore the other one? that's not, that's still an exciting on answered question. for now, it's an observation, and it could be that it has a slightly sticker shell, or also colorings and flavorings and michelle that deterred the fly. we don't know yet about services for chick. these have been under the microscope here and we can ship back also in brandenburg for 3 years. now. one thing is clear, not all chick, these are the same. most of the other one is leading the experiment. he became familiar with the crop back home in syria. this variety compared to the others. yeah. wow. what's the difference the, how does he put an ocean to so you can also see that it's going to be down current . it's more or less the classic chick be. you know, the causes exactly the classic light colored one for the fun. they are hopeful,
8:42 pm
the crop will succeed here. does it always comes gus i'm off but that's was the very beginning. and for the 1st 2 years, i monitor the weather from via visa. how's the weather data? what does it look like and what is the best time to? so i got this right for chick peas, the big glass. you can compare the climate back then with that as my hometown a level, the most valuable buffer, it was almost the same building, even the levels that we don't have right? phone has more than 350 or 400. if all goes well for the situation today, and brenda burgis, similar in finding bog english with temperatures reaching new records every year, growing seasons are shifting chick, these are clearly one way to adapt to the new conditions. yes my, the despair, my, this is the 1st of all it's getting warmer. that's the main point to this window.
8:43 pm
and that leads to more of an operation company. that means we have less water in the system even if it rains more in the future. that's a step homes. secondly, there is a shift in rainfall with more in the winter months when we don't need it to move us on to my needs to call them. and then there's the fact that the weather phenomena are obviously changing in such a way that once the weather conditions are stable, they last longer does a ton artery, letting out the storm tom. my trees also help protect farm land. and craig, that's north west of berlin. at least one farmer is convinced trees. are the answer for the tricky soil if you could take some for us on foot for the grandkids. he started planting rows of popular is on his farm land 5 years ago. and his soul has already begun to change
8:44 pm
a process that usually takes decades. tito, what's new display we can see that the routine of the saw. it was beautiful here with nothing. there's what so just yeah we have, we'd screen here. no problem boxing how big a bit deeper. just thinking about vines. it came up with some parts of it. yeah, yeah, here we have the entire root system voltage. we have the leaves fold down. we have to shade how many of us in other words, of how the soil life will find completely different claim back to conditions here and develop much more intensively because because there is no tillage, right? to do that. that's the kind of good was able to convince the owners of his land to allow him to plant forests on the farm land. this is unusual because every hector is valuable to the farmer. but that's exactly why he says he needs the trees . they help him with his work. $365.00 days
8:45 pm
a year. the defense revise its entire over $17000.00 poplars here and boiler of course that's not included here. then there is nothing we have this evaporative cooling here, that all the trees are alive. nothing. yeah, we are treating korean car doors, the shopping clinical. and the nice thing is that as a conventional farm from the 9 i have an organic tree strip here. i think it warms my heart was the there's new pesticides, new fertilizer. we use the trees fucking deployment, but he also did the animals, the height and the strips, a surprising pump. and so this has nothing to do with the agriculture in between truck, but it's fascinating to see what happens here. the invest the present supply from right to left on the form that we have partridges. and here's the field. and this is that the celebrated area. we think that it does wonderful things for the floor and the phone. it was too fluid on phone. those skeptics claim the trees would
8:46 pm
steal the nutrients his weak needed but his experience has been exactly the opposite. the grain grows just as well right next to the trees as it does in the field. what's more, the light so it was held together better, which helps prevent erosion. but wanted to see a feel good yesterday, for example, the dust didn't blew into the village. the roots of trees filled her entire column . these are effects that you're only noticed if you work with the system every day . it's all by sitting within 15 know to hector's of trees on 140 hector's of farm land. we have evaporated. cooling on the trees. provide shade rate, the winds on line and the ruse of trees octave just don't let the moisture escape. nothing is that something new machine can do the machine them up. find a good thanks. trees are better than any sprinkler system. farmers and flaming have also started planting trees in their fields. young poplars
8:47 pm
grow above one of mark dimensions. fields, serials will soon begin to sprout between the trees. but how is the story a live suppose to restart after a build has been intensively farmed and depleted for years? mark has started making his own compost to regenerate the soil. plant residues such as strong grass leaves would in clay, become ready, made homeless within 6 weeks. let me see what the smells like the forest floor, and that's how it should be most mount. and that's a very pleasant smell. this is guns. i'm going to email fire. countless soil creatures help again to break down the material. there excretions form a kind of cement for stable soil structures. this is needed to better store water than nutrients, or does it so this is different from the compost. this is generally produced and
8:48 pm
that can be bought in hardware stores or elsewhere. the coffin con. this compost is a control compost which means that the composting, the real thing, is controlled by adding water every day and turning it slowly to keep it cool. you will. so would you like to avoid falling over the template told will the middle of the finished compost is spread on the fields like fertilizer, but is it worth the effort the if you dig up the reinforce soil, he getting 5 centimeters organic matter. it's all over then there's a few centimeters of red soil phone and that results in grooves that we don't find in your open stephen box to lafayette nobody. nobody throughs, fertilizer they are, nobody players true for. i wouldn't say that we need green forest here. we still have to harvest green, but we want to replicate that. we have to replicate this system. most news is listed in the emissions family has been farming here for over 400 years. his ancestors always struggle to bring in
8:49 pm
a good harvest. and now climate change is making things even harder. but do mission wants to eventually pass the farm onto his son the compost as a 1st step. but it's not enough for all the land. he has found a way to multiply the soil helpers. the method is called compost t. he leaves the compost in a kind of teabag and warm water for one to 2 days. he also adds a cup of honey and rock flour. the unusual concoction smells like molten beer and herbal tea. the microbes can't seem to get enough. you can't really see what it does, all right, but i know it's good because the plants are all very, very healthy. i don't need any more plan protection products in the form of longest sites as hold on with the composite key and it works very well.
8:50 pm
it has not yet been proven whether compost t promotes whom is formation, but marked emission is convinced or for him direct sewing catch crops and compost t go hand in hand. the he applies his infusion to his fields up to 3 times a season. he sprang it on a maze field today. he only sprays at dusk or at night to protect a light shy bacteria from being destroyed by the sun. the real energy is created that we didn't have before mole just from living organisms that are entire cultures that are now starting to work and take effect, but weren't there before. i'm front of the plan really makes use of it and continues to do what it does, even in bad condition, messiah. in other words, it does when it otherwise wouldn't be able to do because of heavy ring fold or
8:51 pm
a drive it stream sunshine. please put light is the plan keeps its head down and works to save itself on. so here we go. and now we can assume that the plant will get back to work right after it gets hit with the plants, people. nothing's even talking with them in front of me. t mark too much and used to have to spray expensive chemicals. thanks to his new method. he can now almost do without them. the climate change isn't just making the weather warmer, but also less predictable. healthy soil can act as a buffer heavy summer down port falls on fill up in lena atlas vegetable planet. the soil absorbs the water. after a short time, it is all seats away. philip also use this bacteria to help the soil.
8:52 pm
some of those in simmons photos like this as a fermentation rejuvenates, the soil and it is. i think i saw this already quite well revitalized, but we still want to give it a little something along the way that it had a good temperature. this takes 10 days or a week and toggle or com. you can measure the ph value, which i smell it is good if it smells good, we use it. for notes of us. your cellphone isn't fun, isn't it? i just hope that it's full of good bacteria to ship the item, which i can now add to the style that i'm stressing at the moment time it often vacating kind of the fermentation is made from plant residues. for example, kitchen waste. but unlike compost is permitted by lactic acid bacteria in the absence of air, this produces a sour smelling liquid full of micro organisms and nutrients. philip,
8:53 pm
regularly spreads of the concoction on his fields the lot in regards to those of farmers life that i do it by hand at a snail's pace and they just use the tractors. they laugh at such home remedies anyway. the importance of good good bacteria for human health is undisputed similarly, the realization that soil is more than just something that holds plants is gaining ground. it's a system full of life. organic farming leverages this knowledge. in the absence of chemicals, gardeners and farmers looked for natural allies, as well as good old fashioned trickery. before the defendant, firstly the plastic prevents the weeds been growing time, they start to germinate, and then they don't get any light and then they die. that saves us a lot of work and get this in, and it gives the pumpkins and zucchini
8:54 pm
a lot of your arms this before you get off this about the water also passes through the plastic translation of the gun. this means that all the soil organisms feel totally at home underneath and no birds can get at them. they are eat and then have constant moisture and can also feed on the weeds in the compost that we brought in here. advanced cultivation techniques to allow the others to grow a lot of a small farm and the story. it was also improving noticeably. so it's in food now we're in our 5th year. i'd say we're starting to really notice that the soil structure is creating resolved, as long as it's always a long process. and then 10 years will hopefully notice that even more stacker. why don't more farms follow suit? the pair work from dawn to dusk during growing seasons over time, physical labor and idy ology are all a part of it lena and philip called their farming method, organic intensive. why not regenerative? a currently popular term to use,
8:55 pm
