Natural Farming was founded by Dr Cho Han Kyu in the 1960's when sustainability was not considered an issue the way that it is today. Dr Cho attempted to show an alternative way of farming that assured high yield and good quality, a nature respecting approach to farming that superseded the chemical intensive agriculture which had just begun to spread at that time. Nowadays, natural farming is used in over 15 countries, recognized for its strength to produce more at a better quality, for lower costs. It is also practiced in underdeveloped countries and communities to provide self-supporting tools that can improve their livelihoods. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars as well as scientists and industrialists. Those from various countries will find this book useful, as many are moving towards Natural Farming from harmful chemical farming through the use of developing technologies for environmental and land productivity conservation.
