The placement / layout / row orientation is something I've been slowly figuring out for the last few years (and what 'best practice' is for my context)
Hopefully this video saves you a few years of trials and let's you get straight into things!
More content on Instagram, where you can ask me any questions or to film/share something specific.

It was very useful to me to see exactly how you organize all the plants (direction, group and distance) depending on its function and needs. Thank you very much!

Awesome Byron! Learning so much mate. With a system laid out like this, where is your pathway that allows you to maintain/harvest from the main tree row? Do you just walk on the organic matter (where you had laid the banana stems?) Or am I misunderstanding what Im seeing... Thank you mate! 💪

Hi Byron, I just started following your work. For the herbaceous plants, is the main purpose for them to become nutrients/soil? Thank you for your dedication and amazing work. I would like to try this out!
@byron.in.new.zealand
@byron.in.new.zealand Год назад
Happy to hear you’re into this stuff! Some herbaceous plants are edible like yacon, rhubarb etc. but if they’re exclusively for chop & drop, it’s a different set of purposes

I've got two questions about the bana grass and sugar cane row. Where will you put the organic material? In the same row, the tree one or both? And what will you do with that line in the future when you get an abundance ecosystem? Converting it to a tree row? The many bana grass and sugar cane roots would let anything else to grow? Thank you for sharing knowledge!!

Probably will depend on the moment, and where I feel like needs it the most! Will update as the system matures

Thanks very much, really enjoying your videos as I'm setting up a small banana plantation utilizing some of your principles here in (sometimes) sunny Gisborne. Went to check out urban bounty but seems to have gone?

Thanks for watching! Check out Subtropica - They’re an awesome food forest nursery based right in Gisborne. Simon & Kelsey, they’re incredible people. They ship plants all around NZ - Pretty sure they’ve got a local sale happening this weekend at their site too.

Thank you for sharing. Im trying to use mexican sunflower, do you plant the cuttings directly in the soil?
@byron.in.new.zealand
@byron.in.new.zealand Год назад
Usually they’ll have been establushing root systems in a pot at least a few weeks before they go in. Can go in directly as fresh cutttings if being planted into loose soil, but in this case they’re being planted into established grass so they need that head-start

Hi Byron, great video! Some questions: How do you control bana grass or other rhizomatous/invasive biomass producers? How to keep them in their line? And at some point you may want to terminate them, right? How to do it? Thanks!

Heavy pruning until the light conditions change and they’re no-longer the vigorous growers they once were

There’s no way the fruit tree line is from seed (they don’t grow that fast) and they’re way to close together. This means you purchased seedlings and wasted some money because you will have to thin them out later. They’re literally one foot apart on center and the canopies can reach 20 feet. You can keep the fruit tree canopy trimmed to 5 feet diameter but that still means you have limbs of each tree growing 1.5 feed beyond the trunk of the next fruit tree.
@byron.in.new.zealand
@byron.in.new.zealand Год назад
Clearly not everything is from seed - Many things can happily occupy this density in different canopy layers. Suggest you do more research

Hello, are food forests commercially remunerative? And till they grow can we have annuals? Thank you
