"The One Straw Revolution" written by Masanobu Fukuoka has garnered a lot of sympathy and has been visited by many people from all over the world. While the world has achieved great economic growth, people have begun to pursue the fulfillment of their hearts. Based on Masanobu's idea, the agricultural products that are carefully inherited and cultivated for three generations are grows freely and gives off a fragrant and tasty personality. The nature of the pure mountains and rivers that have been protected along with the farm in Iyo City, Ehime Prefecture, exists in a nostalgic appearance. We will continue to honestly protect the farm while respecting the nature. That is "Masanobu Fukuoka Natural Farm".
Hmmmm.. "grown as naturally as possible". If he was growing it 100% natural he'd just say "yes its all grown naturally". Full stop. But naturally as "possible".. hmmm no, he's gone against the old mans philosophy. You can hear it in his answers. He doesnt do it purely natural like the old man did. Thats what happens when you turn it into a business. You take short cuts because he needs faster yields. What a shame.
Seed ball essence is not for outer growth like trees plants rather inner growth spiritually .plants don't need human beings presence to thrive . Mother earth follows first come first serve in this case seed ball on surface have kick start germination competing with weeds. for eliminating unnecessary human involvement without abandoning completely .making drama for desire is sickness saying hardwork. Being simple is real hardwork( work hard on your performance not on things ).
Fascinating to see how his legacy and philosophy have been inherited and interpreted by his family two generations on. No tillage no weeding no fertilizer no pesticide, to me, is sacrosanct, but I'm not a commercial farmer. Perhaps that's the key difference then for being able to wholly manifest this life-giving philosophy - self-sufficiency versus for profit? Really, natural farming's goal is the total productivity of the land - it's the land as a whole living system - not simply the yield of one particular cash crop. To make compromises and allowances for disruptive interventions is to set a sequence of events in motion that will necessitate future disruptive interventions. Although ideas like sustainability and the biodiversity crisis / 6th Extinction were uncommon at the time of Fukuoka-sensei's writing, to me his philosophy is at the core of how humans as a species can live sustainably on the Earth, fostering its whole life and our own species' existence simultaneously. On a long enough time scale, in fact, those goals are one and the same. A global crisis of degraded soil fertility and topsoil erosion - the exact conditions that industrial monoculture on a mass scale perpetuates - is the stuff of nightmares; of civilization collapse.
For those who love Masanobu Fukuoka, you will surely want to know how his natural farm is now? Who will take over and will there be any changes? Here is the answer: Thank you
Can you please upload more video of Current status of Masanobu Fukuoka's farm. I would love to see how his grandchildrens are taking his legacy forward.
I have a question… I have been doing natural rice farming. Recently I just noticed while I was planting rice in the paddy, looking at weeds starting to grow all over the field. I was picking those weeds without much thought but at one point it struck me,,,, and I asked myself why am I eliminating those weeds? I then noticed there are lot of information about no-till farming on the farm field but almost none about rice paddy. Even natural farmers are eliminating weeds one way the other in the rice paddy. My question is that how much of the weeds we need to eliminate and how much we leave them as it is. And weeds can help and support soil for rice?
Thank you so much ❤️ I agree with him in all the ideas. It's great to see that Masanobu San has left his theories to evolve through his grandchild 🥰 Namaste and much love from Kerala, India 💚
Thank you, i was hoping someone would interview the descendents of this great man and show it to the world. it offers a kind of deep reflection thats invaluable to understand someones work.
