A simple approach to Bio Dynamic farming

The Sun via photosynthesis promotes growth and life towards the soil's microorganisms, fungus and bacteria, which in turn sees the pasture and plants fed to optimise growth


The pasture and ranges of plants feed the cows and then produces hay or dry matter for the winter


During winter the hay is fed to the cows


In turn the cattle will produce huge amounts of poop and "waste" product, of which is accumulated


Carbon then becomes mixed with the "waste" by the pigs when they go inside during the cold


This process produces compost matter


The compost goes back out onto the 'rested' fields throughout the winter months


This in turn combined with the microorganisms, gases, worms and insects, nourishes the soil to produce rich pastures ready for the summer


Now with the sun back out, the cycle begins again….
