couldnt u use organic fertilisers such as cattle/horse manures.. nd the incorporation of dung beetles, (microbes nd invertebrates) and the use of leguminous plants such as lucerne and clover.

these are ideas to talk about..

Yeah, legumes for nitrogen fixation. There are others i am having a mental block now

 

[jessikayo]

so the use of organic manure
what about stubble grazing?
and the use of wind breaks to stop erosion? Cause you know erosion takes the top soil so therefore takes the nutrients. So if you stop erosion organic matter is not taken from the soil.
What you think???
