Growing a Revolution : Bringing Our Soil Back to Life Paperback / softback
by David R. (University of Washington) Montgomery
Paperback / softback
Description
Since the dawn of agriculture, great civilizations have sunk into poverty after destroying their once fertile land.
Today, few people realise how close we are to the same fate if we don’t take action.
In Growing a Revolution, David R. Montgomery leads us on a journey through history and around the world to see how innovative farmers ditch the plough, mulch cover crops and adopt complex rotations to restore the soil, finding the foundation for the next agricultural revolution: a soil health revolution. Cutting through the debates about conventional versus organic agriculture, Montgomery shows how new regenerative methods heal damaged environments and improve farmers’ bottom lines.
Ancient wisdom merges with modern science and Growing a Revolution shows how agriculture can help solve modern environmental woes.
