Tips to keeping a healthy plot of land
1) avoid monoculture
- Helps avoid disease organisms building up in soil
2) Keep several animal species if possible
- All dungs are different, put as much material back into the soil as
possible
- Fold animals across fields to break parasite life cycles
3) Grow [[ley]]s, and plough them
4) Green manuring
- Grow some crop then plough it back into the land, or work land with discs
5) Avoid ploughing too much or too deep
- Do not bring subsoil to the surface
- Chisel ploughing is good
- act of cutting grooves in soil to help drainage and break hard
subsurface layers
6) Never keep soil bare, always be growing something
- This keeps nutrients in the plants, they will return to the soil when they
are ploughed/die
7) Attend to drainage
- waterlogged soil is almost always useless
8) Observe the law of return
- All crop and animal product should be returned to the soil
- If anything is sold, then something of equal manurial value should
be put back into the soil.
- This applies to human excrement
