@manasikashyap 5 лет назад

Thank you for this logical explanation. Once you've joined the lines, how do you dig? With earth moving machinery or by hand?

@farmaanandaa 5 лет назад

After marking out the swales, we simply dig them with out using a spade by hand. You can read our blog on digging swales here :) www.aanandaa.com/single-post/2017/07/15/Raining-Its-time-to-build-Swales

Great video! Did u guys actually used an A-frame to find contour on you property?

@farmaanandaa 5 лет назад

Yes we made all the swales like this.

@sathishagri2218 3 года назад

Great video, Would you conduct any training program? I am more interested in permaculture and would like to learn and implement in our farm. I have 10 acre of land which is completely dry land and we have not done any farming till now.. waiting for your suggestion

@farmaanandaa 3 года назад

We conduct an intro to permaculture class every saturday, which includes a walk around tour! We also sell Aanandaa goodies at the end of the session. Emai us at hello@aanandaa.com for more details

Didi whatever begs of onion I can see behind you, Is it produced in Ananda farm itself?

@farmaanandaa 3 года назад

Yes of course!

@Saksau_gaming Месяц назад

Mam, do the land need to be flattened or leveled before marking the contour lines using A-frame? I just wander that the rough surface may cause errors. Also, do the swales must exactly follow the contour lines? Please guide mam.

@farmaanandaa Месяц назад

Not really. If the land is a bit bumpy, you can intuitively find the correct contour to adjust for the bumpiness.

@Saksau_gaming Месяц назад

@@farmaanandaa I just learned that swales are useful for sloppy land. If it's true, then what are options for flat land?

@dhanashekarnamvazhi2419 3 года назад

Howmany acres of this farm?

@vinodmahala2424 3 года назад

@gauravbhai7798 4 года назад

On how much land you make permaculture and how much land require (minimum )to make permaculture

@farmaanandaa 4 года назад

Permaculture can be practiced on land of any size, go ahead and get started, all the best!!

@gauravbhai7798 4 года назад

Aanandaa The Permaculture Farm can u suggest some names of Nitrogen fixation and air brakes plants,please.thanku

@farmaanandaa 4 года назад

@@gauravbhai7798 you can easily google that. All plants with pods like peas, arhar, urad, moong, masoor etc are nitrogen fixing. Similarly trees with pods are nitrogen fixing too - like shisham, siris, moringa etc.. For wind breaks, you need trees which sway in the wind and break the air flow, but do not break themselves. We use Casuarina and Silver Oaks. You can research what works for you in your area.
